Hello folks.
Lonnie Mann III Marion, IL Army (91X) I am an artist, industrial designer, and tattooer. I am excited to be a part of this community! I recently got rid of my social media accounts due to a change in community that soured me to those formats. Things started getting too superficial for my taste. This seems like a much better fit. |

Hello, yet another Illinoisan checking in.
My name is Cole. Born and raised in Du Page County. Grew up in Wheaton, and still reside in Du Page County. I work in the IT industry. I love rifles and long walks on the beach. I have lurked on this forum for awhile now, and have found the wisdom and advice from others more experienced than myself invaluable. In fact, I solved a failure to fire problem I was having last weekend because of this forum. I had my hammer spring on backwards, and 3-4 rounds per 30 in a mag would fail to fire. I felt like an idiot, as I have put a FCG together a few other times; but I guess I was in a rush this time after cleaning and assembled it wrong. |

Good morning everyone!
My name is Joe, I recently moved to Illinois from Boston, MA and just by chance I unknowingly moved to Dupage county which is ALOT more relaxed than I am used to. I have my FOID & CCL and I'm looking for people to hang out with, make some new friends and have a few buddies to talk shop with. I have the typical boring layout....9, 45, 308 bolt action, AR, AK & shotgun. Nothing unique. Anyhow, I'm glad to be here and hopefully I run into some of you people in the future! |

New guy here - came over from Illinois Carry as I saw several over there that also congregate here.
I'm Brian. I'm here in the Illinois Quad Cities. Originally a concealed carry proponent and aficionado but fell into the AR/PCC/Precision Rifle thing a few years back. Trying to figure out what I'm gonna do with this PICA thing as I'm recently retired and widowed. I go by VooDoo |
