Hey all,
Had the pleasure of finding this site while doing some digging for info for the sake of building my first new AR in a while.
I’m a former Army grunt type, and spent a bit of time as a unit armorer. So I am very happy to say that this site has opened my eyes quite a bit to how much things have changed, and exposing me to all of the great stuff out there! And damn… I thought that I had a bit of a clue about slapping a rifle together! Not so! I’m just gonna sit back and learn!
I’m also a long time martial arts nut… 26 years to be exact. Mostly Brazilian Jiujitsu, Muay Thai and kali. Trained directly under a Brazilian master, and some of the best in the Muay Thai and kali world.
If ever in Atlanta, coin check… one way or another, drink a beer.
Welcome Sir! I done a bit of training myself, mostly Aikido and Krav. Kali looks really interesting, but there are no schools anywhere near my location.
Very cool. Kali is a great art, lots of useful, real world applicability. And actually, I knew a guy that was a kali bad ass, who actually learned most of what he knew via DVD. Check out the Dog Brothers, you can’t go wrong.
Thanks for the welcome. I’m still really impressed and shocked with the level of knowledge here. One of the great joys of learning is to see and learn, what you don’t know; and I’ve already had a few of those moments here.
