Bay area! I'm around Livermore.

I started with caliber conversions and rebarreling savages. Glocks are always easy. Got good at CZ's, and now I hand fit 1911's. It's more hobby than anything... I'm, well, slightly left of liberal, so I didn't get along too well at Calguns.

A lot of CZ enthusiasts here too. Some say they are too many... communists!

More the merrier! You have several of our core constituencies covered. Now we just need your thoughts on Medicare and wheelguns-for-all. Or was that the other way around?
I am a staunch Medicare for all supporter :)

I actually haven't dove too far into wheel guns! Repaired a few very old single actions, but nothing modern. I'll need to give that a go once covid slows and stores restock.

Here's a rock a put together... It started as a GI, so I cut the frame for a Wilson beaver tail. First time I cut a frame, so I didn't want to chop up something nice. :)

As to the rem/remage, I haven't done much 700 work. But the remage thing tends to be doable at home. The 700 turns me off because of the barrel interface, it's not diy friendly. I just tend to lean towards savage. Howas are next on my list though!

Me too!!! I'm Army, can strip a 1911 and rebuild; my combat commander sear is silky and ounces.
I just got a couple of wheelies: both 70s era: a cute S&W model 43 that needs a rthumbpiece and screw, and a Colt Agent that needs a LOT of work. I am now going to learn wheelies.
I live in San Diego, and used to work at a gun store back in the 80s when we were being killed in the streets.
I want to start a Left-Wing Gun Store, with lessons for self defense, home protection, and paper punching.
