What Kind'a Gun Related Items Did Santa Bring You For Christmas 2005?

Merry Christmas 2005 To All-

Well, I t'was just wondering what my THR family received from Old St. Nick?

I didn't really need anything, but I received one of the first Springfield
Armory XD-45 ACP's to hit Alabama. It comes NIB, unfired with
all the GEAR and two 13 round magazines~! Can't wait too get it to
the range.

Wow , an XD 45. Congrats!!!! Please post a pic, if you can. 13rd mags, that sounds awesome.
Nothing Gun related for X-mas. But I did get a 21" LCD monitor for visits to THR!

I had ordered a Milt Sparks VM-2 for my Glock 23 from Top Gun Supply and it arrived on Christmas eve. My wife and I decided that we would make the holster "from her", along with the other non gun related things like the Family Guy seasons 1 & 2 on DVD and some new undies.

I'd be having a very merry Christmas if it weren't for this cold from hell I'm dealing with right now. I hope you all have a happy, healthy and Merry Christmas!

I bought myself some bullets and primers, and a new bore brush. A guy is sending me a holster he doesn't use for my pistol, so I guess that's a gun-related Christmas present!

I got gift certificates to Midway USA and some .40 S&W ammo.

 

[Moondoggie]

I received a NIB Colt 1991A1 for Christmas.

OK, OK.....I bought it for myself after receiving the blessing of SWMBO. She won't plunk down the money for a gift gun for me for fear of getting the wrong thing.

When Nebraska gets CCW passed this year (hopa, hopa, hopa!) it will be my carry gun.

Also the first gun with a pony on it for me.

My wife bought me a Dillon Precision shooting mat...she said it pained her to look through "that catalog with all the girls with guns on it"

Kids got me 1st season of The Sopranos (sort of gun related)

My mom bought me a beer stein (for after shooting)

Bought myself an XD40 (although would love to have one of those XD45ACPs like ala dan)

Bought my wife diamond earrings (which allows me to keep buying guns)

 

[Stickjockey]

Don't know since I'm at work. But I think there's a case trimmer and a tumbler under the tree somewhere.

edit: Yep! One Dillon case tumbler and one RCBS CasePro trimmer. Yeehaw!

With the help of a gift card (sister) and a $20 off coupon I ordered a Leupold 4X28MM handgun scope for one of my 629 Classics from Cabelas. Won't be here until late in the week so I guess I'll have a second Christmas this year.

 

[DMK]

I think the coolest thing I got was a CZ-52 Armorers kit to go with my two CZ-52s. It had all the parts except for only one magazine and everything is brand new (except that's it's from 1953).

Yea I know, kinda geeky. You'd have to be a Cruffler to understand.

 

[Medusa]

A book how to invade Fort Knox, how to disable an ICBM et cetera "Don't try it yourself".

 

[2k5Adam]

Guns and Ammo magazine subscription
Handgunner magazine subscription
And enough cash from the reclusive inlaws to make a chunk down on my next 1911... Muahahahahaha

 

[ATAShooter]

No gun stuff,... I got 2 shirts and a shot of leg and all 3 were 2 sizes too big.

 

[Balog]

Well, for Christmas my family sent me a few war movies (Saving Private Ryan, Tae Guk Gi, Das Boot, Last of the Mohicans).

And my THR family is sending me some books.

 

[browningguy]

Well I did pretty good this year. One Daughter got me "Steel Canvas" by RL Wilson and the other got me "Winchester" by Wilson, excellent photographs in both. Sousal unit got me a Ruger NRA commemorative .22 pistol and a Caldwell Steady Rest. Hope every one else made out as well.

 

[Lambo]

1 box of ammo. The Wolf Gold 7.62x54R 150 gr. FMJ.

 

[hoek48]

I got a Cylinder & Slide Extreme Duty Sight for my M66-6. The sight picture for me is much better with the Hi-Viz front sight than the original V notch adjustable. Can't wait to get to the rang to check the POI.

 

[RaySendero]

btt...........

 

[Darkside852003]

I got the S&W 642 I asked for. Some ammo to go with it.

 

[trueblue1776]

I got the big bottle of Johnny Walker Black Label. WOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Not that I'm implying it's firearm related

 

[Invisible Swordsman]

Got a dehumidifier for the gun safe.

Earlier in the week I found a SIG p220 2 tone w/ night sights that was marked way down thatfollowed me home.

 

[loose cannon]

i would've recieved a ruger bisly vaquero stainless in 44mag with synth ivory grips but the distibutor twerps sent the wrong caliber(45colt).

sometime next week ill get the gun and in 6weeks a el paso #77tortilla holster and a 2x6 ammo pouch.

my wife gave me a deactivated artillery shell ill try to post a pic off im still trying to id it.diameter is 6"or 155mm length 19"weight 47lbs

if i had to guess id say ww1 land or naval he shell. it has a large cavity for the explosive filler.

if i can id like to restore it to the proper color.

 

[hso]

No gun stuff for me, but my 7 yr. old daughter got a preban AR with a .22 upper on it. And in her favorite colors to boot.

Savage Lee-Enfield and one of the last CMP '03A3's. Excellent Christmas, I would say.
