No, no...... NO!

You need more finesse.

Photo-shop that bad-boy with the particular firearm noted as having plenty available for Christmas delivery.:evil:

Then, as though idly speculating, make distractionary notes on other guns, cross those notes out and then scrawl a note as though to yourself to check of the one you want sometime after Christmas.;) Using that page for recording an otherwise non-connected phone number or web site is a great dodge too. "Have you seen that piece of paper that I wrote the HVAC guys number on?"

"Aw hell, how did you know? I was looking at ordering one after the Christmas rush."

FOR BFRs, ORDER FULFILLMENTS ARE CURRENTLY IN THE 8-12 MONTH RANGE. WE ARE CURRENTLY NOT TAKING ORDERS FOR DESERT EAGLES.

From Magnum Research's Web page....

Good Luck!!! Maybe if you can order now, it would be most likely after Christmas for delivery............
 
My wife doesn’t do hints very well. I just have to order what I want and tell her she did a good job Christmas shopping. She gets mad and then buys herself something that she wants and tells me I did well. It’s a win-win. The kids don’t understand why I get 1 present and momma gets about 30 pairs of shoes 3 purses, and some random kitchen gadget. I’m happy with this arrangement. Now, on to the 10mm search... but I could be easily swayed by a 500sw.
 
SWMBO has never and never will buy me gun. She's afraid I'd criticize the choice. She does try for reloading components on local on-line auctions, and has occasionally won some.
 
Some years ago, a buddy of mine had the ear of my wife. She took his word for anything and everything without question and Russell knew it, too. Well, in an effort to help me with all things considered manly, Russell told Mrs. Poper that if I ever said "Russ says I need one of these", she was to be sure I got it sooner or later, especially if I didn't buy it for myself. One day, Russell let me in on the setup. "Hey, if you ever want anything, you just tell your Honey I said you need it. Trust me. She'll see to it that you get it."
A couple months later, my sweetie and I were walking to a restaurant and we had to walk past a used car lot on our way. As it would happen, they had a beautifully restored Jeep CJ7 with all the trimmings, lift kit, big nobby tires, roll bar, winch, the works! I leaned on the hood and casually said, "Russ says I really need one of these." Mrs. Poper took three steps back with both arms extended towards me with her palms out; "OH, NO YOU DON'T!!!"

When I told Russel his setup wasn't working like he said it should and I explained the specifics of the attempt, he looked at me with his patented look of disgust and replied; "Look, Dummy, even my influence over the fairer sex has its limit!"

Oh, well, nothing ventured, nothing gained......
