Hello from North Texas
I’m an inactive Marine, an old art teacher, and an assistant principal. I’ve owned four Rossi 92s, all were great! I enjoy hunting with my 92 set up with a scout scope and chambered in 45 Colt. I’m a bit of a bullet nerd; I’ve been hand loading for 30 years, and I still have all my firearms, fingers, and both eyes! I love the outdoors, Hiking, camping, kayaking, and especially walking in the woods- hunting feral hogs.

Re: Hello from North Texas
Welcome. What part of Texas? Some of your pics look like terrain that is common in my area north of DFW, south of the Red River...

Re: Hello from North Texas
I’m actually in HV. My mom taught at Marcus until 2000, and I work at Briarhill.GasGuzzler wrote:I grew up in Highland Village and graduated from Edward S Marcus.Point452 wrote:I live in the Lewisville area, but do most of my hunting in Young County, out by Loving, TX.GasGuzzler wrote:Welcome.

Re: Hello from North Texas
I thought I sent a PM regarding some overlapping history. My parents sold my childhood home to Dr. Rogers, Superintendent LISD when they moved out of HV in 1998. I remember when Briarhill was built as I attended HVE. Highland Shores did not exist when we moved to HV in 1980. PM me your mom's name if you'd like...probably recognize her or maybe even had a class with her.
