- Hi Rick! I love firearms and I think it's a great idea for citizens to be allowed to defend themselves with guns. I live in Hungary where gun laws are unfortunately extremely restrictive. For that reason I could not gain practical experience with guns, but I have read a lot about firearms in gun related magazines and on the Internet. Cool lenses, all of yours. Keep them up.

- According to the Michigan attorney general's page at http://www.michigan.gov/ag/0,1607,7-164-17334_17362_22672-60639--,00.html, Nebraska has joined the list of states with reciprocal CPL agreements with Michigan. Thanks for a great resource nevertheless!
