as an introduction: Hi I'm jomax. I live in central Illinois and am a retired toolmaker/machine repairman from the huge heavy equipment manufacturer based here. I am an avid hunter/shooter, mostly the 3 D's for hunting-ducks, doves, and deer. I shoot bowling pins and sometimes rim fire steel at a local gun club once a month. For shotguns I shoot Belgian auto 5's exclusively, Illinois law requires use of handgun, muzzleloader, or shotgun for deer. My 5 auto 5's are all "shooters", no safe queens here. I like making my weapons mine by making them fit me or my preference's just as much as I enjoy shooting. I enjoy being around folks who like what I like, and I like J.M. Browning's creations. I stumbled across this site while looking for an answer to one of my many questions and thought "these people are of a kindred spirit with me". I would rather spend my downtime at my reloading or gun bench than online, but "thanks for having me"!
