    Gun Related Christmas Presents. What Did You Get?

    My sweetie buys me some stuff every year. This year she got me a Hornady Electric Powder Measure, Ballistol and a subscription to Handloader.

    I bought myself another Zenith 9mm on sale for $200 at CDNN. These 9mm are a great value but sold out now. If you can find one, get it. The 45ACP's are under $400, the 45ACP style 9mm under $350.

    Bullet mold, of course! And a holster and sizer die.

    All year long is Christmas for me. I buy what I want, when I want it.

    I bought my son a 1903 s&w hand ejector. Looking forward to Chrismas, cant WAIT to see his face! He dont know it yet, but we are going to hit a bunch of gun shows to find molds, holsters, reloading tools, brass....... All the stuff that goes with owning a new gun, and starting a new caliber.

    I SBR'd a SIG 516 pistol piston gun. Got the Form 1, had the lower engraved, then put on the A2 stock and JP Silent Captured System buffer and spring.
    That is MY Christmas present to ME!

    My wife told me to go ahead and pay the dues to the gun club out by Bridgeport. Now I have to go shoot something.

    Sounds promising anyway. Could have been a Wal-Mart bag!

    I think I might have a Lyman brass dryer. The right shape box, correct weight and the rattles are right.

    Yeah, me too. I bought myself a new Accurate mold for my 45-70. My Wife and I are both hard to shop for. Got a sizing die, top punch and a set of handles ordered.
