    Specialized tools to take the end of the barrel out of my and my best friend's Lyman front loader. (my mind looses specific words at the worst times!) Got myself 50 30-40 Krag brass to turn into 25 Krag AI and some bullets for the 1895 Steyr (Graffs got them back in stock).

    Two things; a Trim-it II with .30-06 & .223 dies and a special deprime punch for my Pacific 366 loader.

    I got my son started reloading a couple of years ago. I still lube everything and he must think I'm old-fashioned. For Christmas he gave me a "PC Kit" (1) a powder he really likes (2) BB's for tumble coating (3) A "How-to" article written by someone who tumble coats successfully, and (4) the stove to bake them in. He also looked at my molds and made some suggestions about which ones would be good to start with.

    My wife gave me a box of federal target .38 loads for my GP100. I gave her a "ladies only" concealed carry course pass at a nearby range. She's looking forward to being taught by knowledgeable women, and trying out some different calibers.

    Nothing .......
    Mom made kind of a big deal about giving me my Dad's Model 12 Winchester .
    Makes me very happy and very sad at the same time .
    It's a 32" full choke 12 ga slick barrel .
    It looks good there next to the other pre war M12 , Dad's is a 40' the other one is a 1916 .
    Dad's should be great on turkey his goose loads used to go 75% at 60 yd .

    3D printer and a bottle OBAN single malt.

    That should be an interesting combo.

    She bought me some electronic shooting earmuffs, an AT3 red dot sight for my 10-22, and a flashlight!

    OTOH, I spent the last 3 weeks carving and finishing 18 Christmas tree Ornaments for grandkids and friends, and making 2 knives; one for my Granddaughter's husband, and the other, for a friend. I almost got them done for Christmas, but my back went out about 3 weeks ago, and I'm just now getting so I can finish them up.

    Altogether a good Christmas!
