I hope everyone gets to see John's write up in American Handgunner. It's well deserved, John - I hope it keeps the orders rolling in.

Congrats, buddy!

Thanks Ted, but much of that credit belongs to you guys at LTW. I have been very fortunate to meet great people in this industry (the LTW guys being at the top of the list of course :wink: ), especially my mentor, Lou. I know that the road to this point would have had a lot more pot holes if it were not for all the help I received.

It was a pleasure to meet the LTW Crew at SHOT, and the gracious welcome I received was totally unexpected. It was very humbling to have all of you treat me like a friend, and I thank you all for that.

The doors you helped me open were not even a consideration just a few years ago, but I am certainly looking forward to the future!

John

Hell....now that I went part time at the day job to work more on holsters, I hope I have 2 months worth of orders!

Ramen noodles are NOT my favorite meal :shock:

:D Luckily for me, I am only about 6 miles from John and do have 4 or 5 at home already.
Saw all the NOTERIETY coming down the road like a "choo-choo" and tried to beat the rush.

Congratulations to John for a well-deserved article--and he is as self-effacing as his posts here!!!
Keep up the good work buddy.
Jeff
