Hey, guys-

Anyone out there from Maine?? Western Maine here, great place to live and shoot 1911's. Anyone else in this area??

I go there a couple of times a year. Supposed to be back in April or so. Maine is a beautiful state.

I'm down east near Machias. Came here 20 years ago, best move I ever made.

Not too beautiful at this time of year if you don't like cold and snow, but the rest of the year makes up for it!! Can't beat spring, summer and fall in Maine!!

I am in the the Oxford Hills, in the foothills of the White Mountains, which I love. But, I can be at the coast in an hour, which is great too. Wish we had more 1911ers around here!

There are lots of 1911 owners around, but not so many 1911Addicts forum members. However, what we lack in numbers we make up in enthusiasm!:roflmaro::hilarious::laugh:

I've hiked the majority of the trailheads around there. Beautiful area.

Nice! It’s a great area for hiking and shooting and outdoor activities

Anyone familiar with the lewiston area? The wife and I are looking at a farm outside the city. Hows the hunting?

I don't get over that way but I have a doctor friend that lives around there and his wife and kids like it. I know there's a good sized Somali presence there thanks to refugees being settled in the area in the early 2000s. I understand there's also a fair amount of crime in the area but that's by Maine standards so it may not be an issue for you.

What kind of property are you looking at? Is it a working farm now? Are you guys planning to do some kind of farming or just looking for an established property with some buildings and infrastructure?
