Here's mine- for a three war combat Infantry vet (WW2, Korea, Vietnam) a Carcano he always wanted. For my long time friend, his first M1. For my daughter, a Winchester 9422. What'cha'gettin' for those special ones?!
 
My wife is getting me a Tromix Saiga-12 (that was ordered 5 months ago) for Xmas ^^ Mwahaha
 
I got a target .22 pistol for a friend. She has absolutely no idea about it. :D
 
Brother got a 12g
Dad got a 22 target
Sis in law got Sp101

Have to wait awhile to give my daughter one. She is only 5.
 
Wife getting Kimber Elclipse I just bought. I don't like it and she says pretty. So I'll give it to her and buy more Colts. Their better anyway.
 
Normally my wife and I don't get anything for ourselves for Christmas, but with her in the hospital this year, and it looks like she'll still be there come Christmas, I'm thinking I might make an exception.

Right before she got sick, she said she wanted a shotgun of her own. She's got handguns and rifles that are 'hers' and my shotguns are too big for her. Maybe a 20ga Mossberg, or a Charles Daley. Of course she won't be able to get it until she comes home but.....

Maybe....
 
I don't buy firearms for family members. They just borrow mine when the need arises, therefore I feel that I must keep onhand several different types and calibers:) I can tell you that the need for an AK47 has risen and I purchased one last week. That will fill the void that I had for a cheaper semi-auto rifle. By the way, I did just finished the stock on a used single shot 20 Ga. for one of my nephews. His dad bought him a NEF Pardner that was a ducks unlimited model. He paid $50 for it. The stock was scratched all to hell, but I refinished it in satin maple. Man it looks great. They make good Christmas presents for the young guys.
 
my dad wants a .270 bolt action but his VA disability rating just got bumped to 100% so maybe he can buy his own dang guns now. I already gave him 4.
 
My 8yr old boy is getting his first real gun, a Cricket single shot .22. His 5yr old brother is getting his first BB gun, a Daisy.
This summer I bought 2 kel-tec PF-9's, a black one and a green one (the green one looked so "tacticool" I couldn't pass it up;)). Since I don't need two I think I'll be giving the black one to my 19yr old son, it'll be his first pistol.
 
My wife got me a H&R Handirifle in 223 with a bull barrel. I was going to get her a Remington 870 20 guage with a synthetic stack (and paint the stock pink). But, she decided she would rather have a Nintendo DS and some clothes.
 
I got my nephew a CZ 427 (?) .22 LR bolt action. I put my first scope on it. (a 40 year old Weaver K4) Sure shoots nice.
 
My wife got me a Glock 33 for Christmas, should be in next week and I've already listed it in my signature. She also had a friend get four 11 round magaqzines w/pinky rest and a 40S&W barrel for it. I'm a fortunate man to have her. Early Merry Christmas to you all.
 
I love me so I guess I count:) I'm buying a complete upper for a M16 (Rocker River Arms National Match upper). Been wanting a M16 ever since the army and now I'm going to start building one. (well assembling one with the upper already assembled).
