    Re: Why do we call you that?!

    well if you could have 7 letters on your plates, that's what I would have, BUT since we can only have 6, guess it just has to remain a board name... I do plan on getting 11DBLX in future....unless I come up with something better!
    130 and that's it, no really, that's as fast as I'm going to go !!!

    Re: Why do we call you that?!

    Well mine came about because I have been involved in IPSC ( pistol shooting ) since 1987 and have always used a 1911 pattern firearm, 1st a Colt 1911 Govt .45 then in the early 1990's a company called Para Ordnance started making a high capacity frame that would allow you to drop most of your std Colt .45 parts into their frame and gave you an increase in magazine capacity from 7 or 8 rounds to 13 or 14 rounds. I used this Para .45 to win numerous competitions including 6 Western Australian State Titles and a Australian National Title so it had a lot of sentimental value and when I first started getting onto the IPSC International and Australian forums I chose this as my log in and forum name. Since then those forums have done away with "Nicknames" but I still use it for my log on and on other forums as it is easier to remember just one name I also upgraded to a custom Para .40 cal built by the late Peter Murphy and then when our arsehole govt changed the regulations to restrict pistols to .38 caliber I converted the .40 to .357 Sig and my (Old Faithfull) .45 to .38/45 both bottle necked cartridges based on the old cases. Here is some pics of my current .40/.357

    Chaser is the name of my charter boat, I've been in operation in Key West for 33 years.

    Name of the business is Chaserkeywest.

    After awhile the locals attach you to your boat so many boat people would refer to me as Chaser.

    As do most of the Air line Stu's I've met over the years

    XXX is a tip of the hat to my old buddy, Mark Moisan.
    The guys that have been around a while may remember a number of magazine covers and articles about 97-98 BB's with American Turbo Systems kits on them. His trademark was a 3rd X added to the side fairing decals. Mark had 1 kit that he made for himself that was upgraded in all aspects, but never installed. It sat collecting dust in his garage...until now ...Hank

    Middle name is Bob, initially thought "Biker Bob" then substituted the Blackbird "XX" for the "k" and voila!!
