Around my house its all about the Kids and Grandkids. My Mother and Aunt get me the complementary shirt or PJ bottoms. My Wife and I exchange a gifts, just because, and they are usually gift cards. I did get myself a bullet mold, my first custom mold, from Tom @ Accurate Molds. Its a thing of beauty and I can't wait for deer season to end so I can start casting with it! In the last week or so we have also left a few very generous tips at our favorite bars and restaurants.
 
I received a second Hornady tripoint lock box for our RV. Traveling from state to state transporting personal handguns and magazines legally is an effort in frustration.
 
I'm on-call today, but had enough time to take my mom over and have lunch with dad. He likes cooking.
As for what I got: a gift card, some cash, and a need to learn how to care for (and perhaps remove some minor spotting from) custom damascus.

Nice grind and edge, but needs honed. No idea what the scales are; they could very well be polished ebony or horn to look at them in person. The blade has a cut spine pattern, and that decorative piece is actually 10 tiny pins and tubes through and filled with resin.
Would my Renaissance Wax work on this, you think?

Mora companion, Mora filet knife, gift card to academy sports and a cheap pen knife (from my 3 year old niece). I had my eye on the companion for several years and finally put it on the list, I went for the blaze orange color so as to be REAL easy when I am in the woods.
 
My "Christmas" happened about 3 weeks ago when I bought a nice Saginaw M-1 Carbine. Then, a couple days ago Bud's dropped off some .30 Carbine ammo. Now, to get this raininess to clear out for some range time over my week off.
 
I got several bottles of barrel proof bourbon - EH Taylor (x2), Old Forester, Wild Turkey Rare Breed, and Four Roses. Those were specific bottles I asked for on my list to santa...

A new war belt from ATS Tactical which I asked my other half for along with some coyote tan Mechanix shooting/work gloves.

500 rounds of 9mm NATO.

In advance of Xmas, I was gifted a 16 pound USDA Prime rib roast which we made yesterday.

My favorite is the war belt, my previous setup was due for an upgrade.
 
Grandson gave me a bore snake for 30 caliber rifles. I've never used a bore snake, so I guess I'll find out how well it works - or not.;)

They do. With a spray bore cleaner that sits for a bit.:)

@Wisco made out.like a bandit!:thumbup: Proof you are good. Or at least on the list.:)


Nothing, he couldn't get up the driveway...

Why? Are you sure you were good?:D
(Strangely, we were lucky to have a white Christmas this year. Inches instead of feet of snow. :thumbup:)

Just another day at work.

This is the first year in ten that I don't know what you mean.:)

Not a thing.

Come now, out with it. If you received coal just say so. Try to help the young ones.
And remember there is always next year.:thumbup:



Merry Christmas, Everyone!
May the New Year find you with hope and good cheer!
(And a stash of ammunition!)
 
We do a Secret Santa with the kids every Christmas and this year he got me a SIG P320 (air gun version).

Yesterday my real life Santa (also known as my wife), gave me a CZ P07; I'm telling you that it's one sweet 9mm. and she's one sweet wife!

I'll jump in. I was very spoiled this Christmas for some reason. I must have been good.(?)

Santa brought me a new Uberti 1875 Remington "Outlaw" with 5.5" barrel in .45 Colt and a Wheeler 45 piece gunsmith screwdriver kit.

My youngest (17) got me a gunsmith all-in-one tool for my range bag and a personalized Zippo lighter with my SASS name on the lighter and the case.

The in-laws spoiled me heavy. I'm just getting started into reloading this year and they hooked me up with a Lyman's 49th edition loading manual, a Hornady 9th edition manual, a Lee hand primer tool and a set of Lee shell holders!

And best of all, my Mother was around for another Christmas, which didn't seem like it would be the case 9 months or so ago. I am truly blessed this year!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all the fine folks here!
 
I have to add one thing:
My oldest gave me a PC keyboard that lights up like a Christmas tree with 5 colors.
I could have saved him a lot of money & been much happier with a brick of 22's or a bag of patches.
 
Not me, but I noticed our oldest daughter gave here fiancé a box of 250 rounds of Remington, 115gr, 9mm FMJs yesterday, plus a hundred Speer, 115gr, 9mm FMJ bullets.
Our daughter's fiancé is a really good guy, and I like him a lot. However, I'm not all that sure about our daughter's motives. Because as far as I know, her fiancé has and carries a Smith, .45 ACP of some type. While our lovely daughter is the one with the 9mm.o_O:D
