This one's pretty straight forward.

Do your screen name and avatar have any special meaning or did you just pick a random name and a cool pic? Let's hear it...

Ok, here's my story...

When I first made the jump from pistols to long-guns I had a pretty hard time adjusting. I had virtually no experience and had to learn as I went along. I was tryin to sight in a shiny new scope I put on my brand new Remy 700 and couldn't find zero to save my @$$. I was tryin everything that I could think of and my patterm was all over the paper.

An ol' timer who'd apparently been watchin me for a while walks up and hands me a set of hex wrenches. I said thank you and politely asked why he'd handed them to me. "Tighten up your rings" he said, "that oughta bout do it". I asked how he knew and he replied with "son I've been shootn a couple lanes down from you for the better part of an hour and the rattlin in them rings is givin me a headache". I kinda muttered out loud "so that's what's causing me to shoot all over the place".

He said, "young man it's either that or you got yourself one hell of a LAZY EYE"!

We both got a good laugh. He shared a few helpful tips and from then on I've been able to sight in pretty much any rifle with three shots. The whole ordeal made quite an impression on me.

When I got into gun forums I thought the name was a good fit and a reminder to always help people out whenever I could. I designed the avatar afterward. I thought it'd be a funny visual representation of the name.

Mine is boring...it is just a D for Dan and Honovich is my last name...

Fairly self explanatory, I shoot 870's for most everything...

Mine came from the movie "Zombie Land," but I'm sure it's in any other zombie movie. One of the rules they have was to double tap the zombie to ensure he would not come back alive or whatever state they were in.

Well i have often been told that i take everything to an extream level hence the hardcore and for many years i have been waiting for Remigton to introduce a totally new semi shotgun. I sold a brand new beretta semi somthing for a new Versa max in hopes it would be the next best thing and not another flop. user name vmax . The first shotgun i bought was a 1100 at 12 years old and i never looked back.

Well, I've been a collector / shooter of firearms for close to 40 years...so many of my friends call me "shooter"...or when asked a firearm or concealed carry question, my friends will refer to me saying..."he's the shooter, ask him." Of all of my friends, I'm the one who always has a firearm on him.

13 has been my lucky number ever since I first got it on a sandlot soccer jersey back in the late 60's...then on my high school soccer jersey in the early 70's...then by request on volleyball, softball, and basketball jerseys. I even picked up my 1st brand new car, a 1979 Chevy Camaro SS on Friday July 13, 1979...back when the gas rationing was going on and your license plates' last number being odd or even entitled you to buy gas on that odd/even day. The last two digits were one three.

My avatar is about my job...I worked for the Department of Defense for 32 years...all of it dealing with Computer Security...ending with being the Admin for Intrusion Detection / Prevention and traveling all over the US in that capacity. The avatar is the official DoD seal.
