Just another new member introducing myself. I'm new to handguns as well. I live in Bloomington. I moved here about 1.5 years ago from VA. I've been wanting to get in to handgun shooting for a while now. I recently acquired a Taurus 669169 .375 magnum. I fired some .38's and .357's through it for the first time last weekend. Loved it! Despite it being about 25° outside. I will be applying for my carry permit soon. I also hope to get a semi-auto sometime in the not too distant future. I look forward to learning a few things on the site. Peace.
