Hiya.
Cozmo here. I'm 38, from Minneapolis, and been a long-time firearms aficionado. I worked in a gun shop when I was in my early 20s. Joined the Army when I was 17, and spent 9 years in the Army Reserve and National Guard as an armorer, so I serviced every weapon from the M9 pistol to the big 25mm Bushmaster guns on Bradley IFVs. I've owned a number of firearms, but right now I just have a shotgun. Hoping to pick up a handgun or two at some point before I die.

- Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault (yeah, it was buggy, but I liked the story and characters, and the weapons were well done)
I'm not really a fan of the Call of Duty games. I'm sure the multiplayer is awesome, but I never liked the campaigns. They're just too over-the-top.
Firearms
I've owned a 9mm Beretta M92FS Police Special (same as a regular M92FS, but with a special "PS/shield" stamp on the slide), an old pinned-barrel Smith & Wesson Model 10 in chrome, a Czech CZ-50 in 7.65mm, an M1 Garand, and the sawn-off Marlin Goose Gun that I have now. Eventually I'd like to acquire a few more, but funds are the thing holding me back from that. My wishlist includes a Colt Detective Special, HK Mk23, PPK, M1911A1 (old-school...Kimbers are fine, but not for me), and a S&W M19 or M66.
Other
I'm big into motorcycles. I have three 70s Kawasakis, a Kz200, a Kz400, and a Kz650. My first bike was a Honda CX500, and on my dream list are a BMW R65, a Royal Enfield, and an Allstate Puch 250.
I also play music. I currently have a Fender Jazzmaster, an Ovation Viper solid body, a Framus bass, and an old Decca hollow body guitar. My amps are a Peavey Classic 50 and a Vox Pathfinder 15R.
I'm just getting into cosplay. My teenagers are into it, and they invited me to attend a local anime/sci-fi convention, so I went as Rick Grimes from The Walking Dead. My daughter went as Carl. It was pretty cool.
That's all for now. I'll update this periodically as things change.
