Hello from Eastern Ohio

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,
My name is Jerry Smith, I live in eastern Ohio close to the Ohio River. I have a small farm and a comfortable home.
I spent most of my adult life as a civil engineer, I retired from Ohio State. Before becoming an engineer, I was in the army.
My time is taken up with casting bullets, reloading ammo, hunting and fishing. Of course I also farm my land.
Things that I have done to get to where I am, I have worked as a jeweler, Knifemaker, machinist and many other things.
You can find me over on the Handloaders Bench forum, but also other forums. I enjoy shooting my T/C Contenders, mt Marlin lever guns, M1As and many other firearms that I have.
I am always ready to teacher as well as learn. 
My stance on the gun control is one that is stead fast, I have a right to own and use firearms, if need be, I am a militia of one. I have been a life long member of the NRA and for Christmas, I upgraded my membership to Benefactor Life. We are all in this current mess together, and it is getting to be a simple situation, you are either for guns rights or not.
If anyone wants to stop by my place and shoot on my 100 yard range give me about a days notice.
Take care and thanks for having me,
Jerry
