    Ms found an LCP under the tree . She says there's a box of parts for hog tools coming. There is a neat little light that should make that night hunt easier .

    Found this at the local pawn shop when we were shopping for Black Hills Gold Bling for mamma.
    100$ appears to be new, un-fired, no rust, no marks, no blemishes.
    Considering that I have paid 80$ for a similar action, 30$ for similar stock, I considered it a steal and snapped it up.

    Wife was a bit short of cash for her bling so I said I get the shotgun, no bs, no backtalk and you get the money to buy your black hills gold diamond ring. ( she was 40 short and tax) Done she says and so it is.
    If needed I will put a strap on cartridge carrier/pouch on the stock to raise cheek an inch. Did the same to my .357 mag which wears a shotgun stock.

    Life is good!

    Can't say I needed or even wanted a new gun for Christmas this year; not really sure how many new (and very old) guns I was blessed with this year so another would have been silly. I did get a little Christmas cash and hope to blow it all on socks & underwear, lol. Seems I have a few Cabelas gift cards that may indeed be used on my first gun of 2016.
    Yes, I was truly blessed this Christmas. I was able to watch a couple of great-nephews open presents and that helped me experience Christmas thru the eyes of a child.

    Well it was a very Ruger Christmas around here.
    Got a LC9S Pro for a nice little carry gun, changed out the sights yesterday and added a little bling to it--

    I sold off one of my Springfield Xd's to finance the last one. The Ruger GP100 has been on my want list for quite a while. This one is the Wiley Clapp model

    I'm the youngest at our family Christmas at 29 and everybody kind of looks at me to be the excited one anymore. Its tough esp when you work for UPS full time and this time of year sucks out your soul. I used to go to the Christmas of a now ex girlfriends family and they had several younger kids there that really REALLY made Christmas for me. Just seeing the Joy and laughter made my Christmas.

    As far as the guns go I guess I'm a bit like you as well, my family (except for dad) simply refuses to get me gun stuff for the most part. And it would be silly to get me any firearms. Luckily for me they don't realize some of the seemingly harmless stuff on my list is in fact "gun stuff". Dad got me 8 more magazines for my Ruger precision and I splurged and got myself a few "Gunsmith kinks 1,2,3" books off ebay to read through. I'm thankful for all the family that is able to make it to our little Christmas this year. even if it wasn't the biggest our loudest we've had its still time together. OH but I did make it to the range the next day with a good friend who works for snap on and he gave me a pair of socks which look very promising

    No guns for me but I did score on a NOE 430 GR .501 four cavity HP mould and handles and 5 tubes of lube. Congratulations to all of you who scored on a new gun.

    No gifts but I bought myself a couple Christmas presents. A savage bolt threaded 22 and a bushmaster ar. bought the 22 so I could shoot up sub sonic stuff that doesn't run well in my semi auto guns and bought the bushy to just stick under the bed as I don't really need another shooter. Figured with Obama on the rampage I better buy an ar well I still can.
