Smile Cheers from Georgia! Glad to be here.
Hello from Alpharetta, Georgia!!

I've been researching pistols for the past few months. I have some experience with guns but I am far from an expert. Right now I'm borrowing a G17 from a friend while I figure out what to buy. I'm 99% certain I will be buying an XD(m). However I still want to do a bit more research, and educate myself. So I've ordered Boston's Gun Bible and enrolled in a defensive pistol course later this month. I hope that this will turn in to a fun little hobby and something that I can share with my wife eventually.

Hope to learn lots from all of you here. Thanks for the great resource! Feel free to send me comments or suggestions

Cheers,

Alex

Welcome from Idaho. Getting the spouse involved doubles the cost! My wife took to shooting like a duck to water.
