Bev hooked me up with a Remington 870, 12ga; I got her chrome bars for her Dodge RAM, some DVD's and a few CD's:

    I love a good set of knives for the kitchen. I bought a set similar to the ones above for my best friend and his wife a couple of Christmas's ago and they love them. I've have a big set of Henckels for about 6 years and they are great as well.

    Might wanna pull that pic before being told to do so....even worse then skin polk frowns on guns 10 fold...Mark was cool about it and told me why he pulled the pics. I have had about 3 different incarnations of the 870 myself...you can trick them out a hundred different ways....cool toy :)

    I got all my knives and forks taken away....I'm only allowed plastic spoons now :(

    Only Christmas gift I got early was a book I've been waiting forever to read. Almost through it and it is absolutely incredible. It's called Merchant of Death and is about Viktor Bout and worldwide arms sales and how he sells weapons to both sides of the war in Africa and other countries. What an operation he had going throught he 90's.

    I'm aware, they can pull away if they see fit. This 870 will be getting a 20" rem-choke barrel, just to make it a little more versatile. Other than that, a good sling and that's it. I'm not much into shotguns, but wanted at least 1 for the collection.

    Thats cool...it was just a FYI :)

    Best Christmas EVER was when at 8 years old my dad bought me my first .22...I dont think I have ever had another material item that even came close ( And I like my higher dollar toys ) to the feeling of Christmas morning opening that box and seeing that .22 ...not my first truck...my first house...nothing beat that....dad was ( And still is ) a super hero to me for fighting mom and getting it for me anyways.

    It still has its place in the gun safe next to tactical rifles that cost 40x what that .22 did...and I would give one of them away before that .22 ever went anywhere :)

    Your dad gave you a .22 at 8 years old? Is your family currently adopting? Seriously.....

    My daughter at 11 embarrassed 4 guys from my work on one of the guys properties close to town with both a .45 and a 2 3/4 inch .357 ...all my regular friends are awesome shooters, but these clowns from work could barely keep the shots in black. When my daughter actually grouped her shots in the black I was one proud papa :)

    ( Of course I already knew she could do this...she had a little practice beforehand ;) )



    For myself for Christmas I just grabbed 2 of these D1200's
