What'd you get for Christmas?

[Chuck R.]

I'm very curious to know your impressions of the Vedder. I have been considering one for a while.

This is my 3d LightTuck (HK P200, Walther PPQ and now PPS)

One of my favorite CCW holsters for IWB both at 3:30 and AIWB. It's a very versatile holster with positive retention. While it's easy on/off, the large metal clip ensures it stays on. Not quite as comfortable as my MTAC Minotaur, but the ease of use, more than makes up for it. To me the 2 clip holster are a PITA to get on and off quickly.

I'm a very lucky man!

My girlfriend bought me a Savage Axis stainless 6.5 Creedmore and a BIG MeoStar 2.5X15X56 30mm tube Meopta Scope.

What a Great set-up!!

(Sorry,,,Her sister is married) Hahahaha.

 

[Axis II]

I bought a PSA AR-10 lower the week of Thanksgiving. Today for Christmas, I received the complete matching upper (18" 308 1-10). Now pondering what direction I want to go with my optics.

Maybe a dump question but how can you use an optic with that front sight?

 

[Demi-human]

Co-witness them. No sight in the scope, because it is so close.

Oh man, I know exactly what you're talking about.

 

[Mike .45]

Opened this one up this morning.

At the lower power, such as an RDS or a 1-6 or 8X set at 1X you just ignore it, when you zoom up the FSB disappears and is a non-issue.

I saw the sunrise this morning. It was a beautiful sight to see. I walked in the crunchy cold new fallen snow, as I shut down the aeration fans on my grain bins in the dim light od dawn. I thought to myself that I would be happy if I didn't receive a single gift, I feel blessed to live in this country with my entire family so near and healthy.
I was surprised to see a gun shaped box under the tree for me. A surprise from Mrs farmer, and our kids.
They also got me some good books....and THE Good Book.

Very nice rifle, I love the stock!

Being alive. It was an early gift in late October.
The Only problem sign had been shortness of breath For Weeks, and this was Only during typical running. Having a very healthy heart/pulse, I ignored the frequent slow-downs needed when jogging.

Suddenly feeling like a very bad flu while driving, I gradually steered the car towards the nearby hospital. They relieved the heart attack with a few baby aspirin and a stent, in the "Widowmaker" artery.

If it had happened on wooded jogging trails I often use, an undeveloped area of the neighborhood or a small rural highway, I might Not have called 911, or at least Not until it would have been too late. And your cell phone might have a bad connection.
The sudden symptom only seemed like a bad sickness.

Socks and underwear. .....thanks mom

And giftcards to field and stream,Cabela's,bass pro

I'm glad that turned out well.
Almost the exact same story for my shooting buddy. He thought he had flu symptoms, and ended up with a stent this week.

 

[Hokkmike]

I gave my 26yo niece her first firearm; a new Glock 42. By her reaction, I think that it was a BIG hit.

You could be my new favorite uncle if you want.

My little brother had a similar thing happen to him a couple months ago while at work. He's doing OK and glad that you are as well.

 

[JR24]

Nothing too exciting.

New Lyman tumbler, dies and accoutrements (plus a gift card) to get started reloading 300 BLK.

 

[Sav .250]

Among other things I got the perfect camo folding chair. With back support. This is one comfortable chair.
Might not seem like much to some but for me it`s .....perfect.

 

[Jack B.]

My wife got me this .She knew I've been wanting a DA 44 Magnum for some time now. Will add this to my collection of 44Manum guns. Taurus 44.

 

[GunnyUSMC]

I didn't ask for anything. My kids will tell you that I have everything and if I want something else, I just buy it. I get more out of giving then getting. I would have to say that the best thing I got this year was the tears in my daughter's eyes. It was just an old knife.

 

[375supermag]

Hi...
Gun related gifts were in short supply this year.
My son gave me an Anderson Manufacturing upper and lower for an AR build I have been planning to start after the first of the year.
This will be my first AR. My son has built two and will e specing out the parts for this one. Looking to build a MOA rifle with an 18" free floated barrel with a muzzle brake.

The balance of the parts will be acquired over time as funds allow along with completing other projects. Ideally, I would like to have it completed before mid-summer.

 

[If1HitU]

Nice looking pictures of your rifles guys,congrats!

 

[Shoot 686]

1000 rounds of 9mm range stuff and 100 Speer gold dot .45

 

[Dr.Rob]

Bushnell trs 25 from my nephew and a new work bench from my sweetie. Good haul.

 

[Jeb Stuart]

Santa felt sorry for me since I did not get anything, and now have a new LCR22 on the way. It will be my training gun for my LCR9mm which I LOVE to shoot. Also, my Bersa Thunder 22 which has been sitting in the safe for a few years collecting dust because it was a jam a matic, just had four coils cut from the recoil spring. Gift from a video I saw on line on a guy recommending this. Took it to the range today and it ate the crap out of Remington Golden Bullets. Ran Like a sewing machine. One hundred rounds, two primer failures. Life is Good!

 

[Tiro Finale]

I got a Damascus steel knife with a bone handle, a Brownell's gift card, and the first 3 seasons of King Of The Hill on DVD.

My dad is really into golf and the history of the sport, so I got him a hickory-shaft 1-iron.

 

[ColeK]

A new Colt Cobra.
