What did you buy yourself for Christmas this year you naughty child?

"Terry's Chocolate Orange"
My wife loves them.
We pick up an arm load anytime they're on sale.

Wow.

We are somewhat less profligate here, being poor. With care, we can easily make it last until the end of May or thereabouts, and then, of course, there's the wrapping to suck.

Lansky diamond knife sharpener kit
Lansky 1000 grit ceramic stone
Lansky 2000 grit ceramic stone

I'm practical. Sometimes.

Wife did bless me purchasing a Remington 700 SRS-AAC in 308 on Christmas Eve. A rifle I have wanted for a while. There was a 10% off sale at Sportsmans so I turned the "Well it is only on sale for limited time" back on her and she didn't fight. I know I just enabled her as well.

Now I just need to work out how to get her to buy into the Nightforce Optic I want that costs more than twice what the rifle cost.

It was just too neat to pass up. The new Mossberg JIC in the patriots waterproof and floating tube. Perfect for the boat.........
Just In Case I encounter Sharknado's and need to blast them out of the sky

Now you did it, can't claim a boating accident with a floating case...

Pretty sharp though...

As a captain and federal documented vessel. I'm completely legal to carry a firearm on board my vessel. I've been boarded numerous times and always get a thumbs up after my inspection. Be honest , courteous , and respect them and they in return will put their lives on the line for you.

And if you're willing to pay the RANSOM, and it meets overall length requirements,
You can even take it into Canada with you..

Picked up an M&P Shield 45, for myself.

I had the 9mm version, but didn't care for the way it rotated in my hand, while firing. The grip was just too smooth. A buddy recently picked up the new 45 version, and I fell in love. The new factory stippling is more like something you'd pay someone to do as an aftermarket upfrade, but without the chance of F***ing your frame up. With that said, I'd love to have someone add more stippling to it. haha

Also picked up a Benchmade Griptilian for stupid cheap at Quantico Tactical, in Tacoma.

Full size Beretta PX4 Storm 9MM but I have not been able to shoot it yet.

I bought myself a new Savage .17 HMR around Thanksgiving as to not arouse suspicion

Around Thanksgiving? I'd do it on black Friday so you get a deal and then it's just being responsible and saving money with the sale.

That was basically it. There was a refund of $50 if I remember right so that's how I justified having to do it when I did

Sold two, bought one; came out even on the number of barrels. Got an old Hollenbeck THREE-BARREL GUN CO. drilling; 12ga x 12ga x 32-40. The shotgun barrels are Damascus, probably started out as 2-1/2" 12ga. I think the last owner had 'em bumped out to 2-3/4", but I'm gonna keep it at specialty 2-1/2" shells, or make my own blackpowder ones--in fact, I ordered a box of 12ga brass hulls today. It ain't no safe queen; in fact, the stock has been replaced, so its collector value ain't much, but feeding it and hunting it will likely take up the rest of the time I got left reloading and/or afield--this gun is only 35 years older than I am. We both got warts 'n wrinkles.....

I purchased the French Battlecruiser Dunkerque to play online in World of Warships. Her two front quad turrets have 13 inch guns in them.

I am sort of partial to playing Battlecruisers. I got the German Battlecruiser Scharnhorst 6 months ago, and have really enjoyed playing it.

Here is my Dunkerque in port:

As a kid I used to play Avalon Hill's Jutland with my older brother. My favorite WWI German battlecruiser was the Seydlitz.

Got another Glock 17. Yawn.

 

[Mountainman38]

Glock 20, always wanted a 10mm.

Love mine! Great woods gun.

I bought myself a worn out trashed 1970 Camaro that will completely take over my life and bank account for the next 5 years.

You forgot the pictures.

I cant go get it yet. WAY too much snow over here right now. Not until the spring or so. 650 HP 496 inch L88 head BBC with TH400 and full cage. Ive got to make a few changes. The guy who did the cage doesnt do very good work on chassis ( sorry dad ) and I'm going to back half the car and redo the cage and 4 link the suspension instead of the ladder bars on there now. That and a swap to a solid roller compatible with Nitrous. I'm building a Spooled Dana 60 for it now with 4.10's. The Old Man wants his 9 inch out of it which is fine because I really don't like 9 inch rear ends. With a 200 shot of Nitrous it should be a 10 flat car ( capable of high 9's ) which is as fast as I want to go and keep it streetable .

Yeah, I'm that guy driving through parking lots setting car alarms off and waking you up at 6 AM when I go to work. When I pull up next to the mini van your wife is driving and you down at me with a tear in your eye from the passenger seat we will both understand.

I'm getting a little teary just thinking about it.
