Hey guys, good to be here. I recently got my CPL and purchased my first carry gun (Ruger LCP).

I'm originally from Canada, so I just had to have the smallest pistol I could get as we are limited to 4.2" barrel and longer up north. Living in the belilngham area now, and thinking about joining Custer Sportsmen club.

Custer Sportsmens Club is a good nice clean range. I am a member. Have you gone to check it out?

"Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm -- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves." – T.S. Eliot

"The right of self defence is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction." - St. George Tucker

A careful definition of words would destroy half the agenda of the political left and scrutinizing evidence would destroy the other half. - Thomas Sowell

"To ban guns because criminals use them is to tell the innocent and law-abiding that their rights and liberties depend not on their own conduct, but on the conduct of the guilty and the lawless, and that the law will permit them to have only such rights and liberties as the lawless will allow...

For society does not control crime, ever, by forcing the law-abiding to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of criminals. Society controls crime by forcing the criminals to accommodate themselves to the expected behavior of the law-abiding." - Jeff Snyder

Personal weapons are what raised mankind out of the mud, and the rifle is the queen of personal weapons. The possession of a good rifle, as well as the skill to use it well, truly makes a man the monarch of all he surveys. It realizes the ancient dream of the Jovian thunderbolt, and as such it is the embodiment of personal power. For this reason it exercises a curious influence over the minds of most men, and in its best examples it constitutes an object of affection unmatched by any other inanimate object.

Welcome! Formerly from Lynden. Daughter at WWU. And at some point moving back up. Used to go to Custer before all the recent mania.

Again, welcome. Be a citizen and don't vote for gun hate. :bigsmile:

Welcome to WaGuns! :wavey: Thanks for posting!

I dunno what you're talking about with barrel length ... I just paid a brief visit to Canada with my XD-S, which has a 3.3" barrel.

Haha that is a story! We can have ar mags, just limited to 5 rounds. I have 18 30 round mags pinned to 5 in Canada along with my colt Canada iur ar-15. Pistols limited to 10.


I haven't checked out Custer yet, but have talked to the Conceal carry match director and will be competing. I also sent an email to Jim inquiring about joining.

Well time to start unpinning or pick up some standard ones before the price jumps likely coming soon. Welcome.
