Anyone getting anything firearm related for Christmas, Hannukah, etc?

Not for me, so I'm looking to live vicariously through everyone else.:stretchgr

I bought a nice hi precision bore sighter for myself, then gave it away as a Christmas gift. My Adjustable Sights for my P229 came loose a while back, so now it needs some resighting. I also have been looking for a 30" skeet bbl for my Franchi Alcione T shotgun for several years, and still no luck. So ... no firearms fun this holiday.

The fascination for firearms is the same as it is for cars. There's a sense of power, control and machismo. Knowing we can blow something up, tear it apart or leave something in total chaos is comforting to the male ego. It's second only to knowing we can build anything out of anything.

I've been looking at pistols lately too. I want one that uses a CO2 cartridge, not the spring fired one. But I also don't want to spend more than $20 on one. My son and I would actually do something together with them if we both had one. But I wish the small cartridges were refillable.

Those little BB's hurt! (I wouldn't know from firsthand experience) I shot my dad with one from about 20-25 feet away and it left a welp :rofl: Needless to say he wasn't too trilled with it :headroll:

I'd have beaten you to a bloody pulp if you'd have done that to me! No wait, I'd stick a Swisher in your mouth and made you smoke the whole thing!

I'm hoping for a Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle........... :gangfire:

Sorry! I couldn't pass that one up.

Actually I order a Springfield Armory 3" sub compact yesterday. It caught my attention and I had to have it Linky - shrugs-

I think if I mention getting another firearm, my wife would club me to death (in my sleep) with a shotgun. She'd think about shooting me, but wouldn't want to disturb the neighbors. Although I could use another single action .357 Beretta. You need two for Cowboy action shooting. Also a Browning Citori shotgun for sporting clays. It's a must have on any gun nut's Christmas list. Oh, and a suppressor for the .40 Glock, eventhough the license and supressor would cost more than the gun. :bangbang:

I appologize. I wandered into a Dear Santa letter. The answer is no, I'm not getting any gun stuff for Christmas. :disappoin

This year is woodworking tools. :yes:
