    Hi there,

    Been a gun owner for a year now. I have a mechanical knack for things. I have certifications in welding, ase master mechanic, and some cad.

    I currently work for the family business of making fasteners (screws, nuts, bolts, and pretty much anything that holds things together).

    I enjoy cars, guns and women. I go to the range every other weekend, and do a lot of my own gunsmithing.

    I signed up for this website mostly because i am looking for a local 150 (operating engineers) commemorative 1911 (only 750 made). my father in law is retiring this year and he has been trying to get his hands on one ever since they were made available. Any help would be awesome.

    :welcome: You scared me with that thread title. A new member moving from Illinois to Indiana is great. The thought of Illinois moving to Indiana is terrifying! :D

    From Sullivan Co., welcome to INGO!!

    For 5+ yrs have lived in IN and worked in IL. Living in IN worth the hassle of getting home later because of the time difference.

    I can see the IN/IL state line from my house. There are 30 homes up and down my road, I'm the ONLY native Hoosier living here. The rest are Illinois refugees and the majority of them still work in Illinois. Apparently it can't be that bad of a communte, seems like plenty of people do it.

    Former resident of Illinois myself. 3 years, did my time in Chicago.

    Wow Kirk, you make that sound like an incarceration. Did hard time in the big house, eh?

    I actually miss some of the things I experienced in IL. The bad thing is that since jane burne was mayor, everything has gone (even further) down hill, and the things I liked just are not there anymore.

    Illinois is a socialist republik and show zero sign of ever changing. I've moved to Indiana two years ago and love it here. Also pay a little less in taxes.
