Hello, all!
I'm a fairly new member to ARFCOM, but I've been a lurker here for years. I live in Sterling and work for.gov in DC. I served in the Air Force Reserve for 21 years as an Aircraft Mechanic and Logistician. I've been happily married to my better 7/8ths for 18 years. Just wanted to stop and introduce myself and say what a great thing this site is and how cool the new HTF are. Great idea on someone's part. As you might guess from my avatar, cars are my other hobby! For the curious, its a Factory Five Racing reproduction of the 1965 AC/Shelby Cobra. In that pic it's in race trim, but I drive it on the street more than I race it. 
Have a great day, everyone! |

Oh sure....rub it in. Don't make me take the cover off of my '05 Honda Pilot and show you what's what.

Welcome! Based on your avatar, we would probably recognize each other. I live in Sterling as well, am an Ex-Army Helo mech/crew-chief, and certified car nut. Do you ever bring that beast out to Dulles Chik-Fil-A on Fridays? Yep!! Weather willing, it'll be there tonight. 
Thank you for your service! |

You rat-bastards really know how to rub it in....that's it...the cover's coming off the Honda! Seriously though...nice rides, I've had a boner for Vipers since they came out. I used to live right next to the mall, now I'm a few hours south-east-ish. |

I'm trying to zero a pair of 22 rifles with Tech-sights on 'em and having a hell of a time with something that should take no more than 9 rounds per rifle. I'll try to get out there next week. |
