Thanks again for the warm welcome. As I try to learn more about COTEP, I would welcome any links to informative/important reading concerning this forum.

Being a new guy, I would like to get it right from the start and respect the customs and culture of the members who founded this forum.

As a little bit more about myself, I left Manhattan, NYC eight years ago to care for an elderly parent in Florida. It allowed me time to resume my earlier interest in firearms and I started to become a collector of Colt double action revolvers and later expanded my interest to other handguns, rifles, shotguns and a 1911.

The safe is full, so I think I will just enjoy what I have and try to find some time for the range.

Thanks.

What part of the city were you in? The last place I lived "up there" was 53rd & 8th.

I was born in Fresh Meadows, Queens. As an adult I lived on 2nd Ave. & 90th Street on the upper east side and then on Central Park West between 97th & 100th on the upper west side.

My work was in midtown, so it was a pretty easy commute by NY standards.

A little different lifestyle down here, no?

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.

Yeah, just a little - lol! Though I'd never go back, I sure can't wait to get out of Miami. I came down here ten years ago for what was supposed to be a 1-2 year stay. I met who would become my wife ten months into that plan and haven't made it out ... yet
