I am a long-time shooter and reloader, formerly an FFL holder, with a long-time family history in Florida (early 1800s or before), although as a military brat, I missed being born in Florida by 6 weeks. This is my 6th time living in Florida, since 1948, and I suspect it will be my final location (if my wife has any say). I am a retired professional engineer and Naval officer, with additional time spent prior to the Navy in the Marines ("born" on Parris Island). I am currently trying to salvage all or parts of several rifles and pistols that have been abused during their active "lives". Those I can, I get back to shooting, even if not very "pretty"; the others are used to salvage parts others might be able to use, to supplant those many "hens' teeth" that keep us from fixing a keeper. My guns are shooters, not (supposed to be) safe queens, but this heat and rain are not helping.

Welcome aboard. What type of firearms are you into?
After 28 years in the military and over 60 years on & off with the NRA, hard to list them all, except maybe not so much into shotguns and class 3 anymore. And, at my age, "high-power" is getting lower by the year.
