I am back after my extended absence from the forum.

It has been a long year. I haven't had a chance to do anything firearm related in quite some time, but it looks like things on other fronts may be settling down.

Updates:
I am engaged, with the date to be set for this year.
I no longer drink, due to an aggressive onset of gout at the ripe old age of 34.
I just bought my first Colt SA.
I am going through my parts box, and will be trying to clean up and sell unneeded parts, including finally getting some of those front sights out that I promised everyone last year (My apologies for all the delays).

So - how have y'all been?

You know the type of group we are when you say "I just got engaged and bought a Colt SA" and we say "show us a picture of that Colt!"

I figured you had just changed your screen name and were just lurking! If you have been gone you have missed some good stuff! Better grab a pot of coffee and read a while.
