I was a detective with my agency for a few years (2003-2006) before I (voluntarily) returned to uniformed patrol.

I primarily investigated Financial Crimes (Fraud, bad checks, embezzlement, forgery ect.). I was the first detective in my agencys 100 (+) year history to be exclusively work fraud cases. Therefore I had to develop a system from the ground up. Very much an OJT (On the Job Training) situation.

The other cooler detectives took to calling me Checkman. Instead of getting pissy I decided to claim it as my own.

I'm 5'6", balding,wear glasses,married for 22 years and a father of two. I am anything, but twisted steel and sex appeal. So instead of a cool name like Cold Steel 45 or Talon 76 I went with Checkman. :D

Gunmaster45 07-08-2010 11:08 PM

Gunmaster45. Not too hard to figure out, I made the username when I was 14 and dumb enough to think I was a "master" of guns, and 45 is of course because I like .45s. I used to talk to my ex-girlfriend over AIM with a similar name, and she wouldn't ever call me John, she called me Gun. Made me feel soooo cool. :D

I've also seen the term "master armorer" on at least one movie, though I think it's meant to distinguish the "lead" armorer from the "assistants".

EDIT: Did a quick IMDB search of those phrases. Simon Atherton is credited as "Master Armorer" on Black Hawk Down, and Mike Papac was "Master Armorer" on S.W.A.T. and XXX 2. It looks like Harry Lu was credited as "weapons master" on a bunch of movies.

I have seen this team used and used it myself in credits. The team is used for the key armorer on the show when there is more than one on the crew. I have been Key Armorer on at least two shows.

The first part of my user name comes from the movie Swordfish. I had an interest in the film since it has a great cast (plus you get to see Halle Berry's rack). The latter part comes from the Jericho 941 handgun. It's one of my favorites when I joined the site and I still have respect for it.

My cousins made a really big deal about that when they got the DVD and told me to watch it when it first came out on video. I didn't get that far into the movie :(

I just looked up latin phrases and I'm sort of into Astronomy. 2009 is my graduating class.

Uh, one, it's not porn, however it IS a NSFW screenshot from a recognized GUN MOVIE and a mainstream R rated one.

Two, he posted a link which is okay but only if the link isn't to actual PORN (which Halle Berry is not)

Three, the site he linked to does not allow hotlinking so the controversy is over before it started :D

There are plenty of middle-aged Baptist mothers from the midwest who would argue that it is :D

Her's some real (sorta) porn though: http://www.explosm.net/comics/1339/
