Is that a Gun in Your Stocking?

November23

The best among you completed your shopping somewhere around 7am this morning when all the stores had finally opened for the mad rushes. However, the gun stores probably opened at the same time and probably didn’t offer much in the way of Black Friday sales. (Ohh…gimmick…someone should try that and see if it can get the guys excited about something. A flyer with something like, “Your wife gets up a 4am to stand in the cold for these kind of bargains. Sleep in for our Black Friday sale and save up to 50% starting at 11am.”) Anyway, back to your wish lists.

If the Santa in your family could fill your stocking with some gear or one gun, what would it be?

Alcibiades had some fun suggesting “a genuine Red Ryder Barret rifle.”
US Citizen suggests the M1 Garand.
Commenter guy asked for a DPMS Panther LR-308
Bullbore wants a sharps rifle in 50-140.
Dano would like a Ruger MK II or III.
Dave Hardy wants a .17 rimfire rifle.
TD is begging Santa for a Ruger No. 1 in .450/400 Nitro Express.
DirtCrashr says he would like a little USGI marked General Officers 1903 type in .380 Colt ACP.
Ogre wants a gun and a gun – and he’s got video.
My own wishlist to Santa is, as it is every year, a Cynergy in Nickel Tin.

No obviously related posts.

H&H Bolt Action in .375 H&H please.

Oh, and the trip to Africa so I could use it appropriately, please.

If Santa knows what’s good for him, he’ll get you that shotgun.

That fat bastard still owes me a Sega Genesis.

And I still have a Sega Genesis! If you have a Cynergy, I think Santa would be okay with us arranging a swap. I’m sure he just got the houses mixed up.

Just one?

Well, it would have to be the John Wayne Centennial Ruger Vaquero special edition.

If I could mold coal into a shotgun, you’d have one.

NO

she’s got a brother (who wants a National Match M1A for his retirement from the Army)

Went down the Shenandoah in 2002 to visits a book show…I was sleeping on the way back and she stopped at a gun show

Didn’t see anything I liked except at the front of the show…a guy with a pallet of M44 Mosins

She made me go through the entire stack to find a perfect example with all numbers matching… a 1945 Ishevsk for 69 bucks

Her Anniversary Present last year was a S&W 642 with Crimson Trace

I bought her a Remington LT-20 for her to shoot skeet with

She’s a pretty good gal

Just one high-grade English type “best” side-by-side shotgun in 20 ga. – please, Santa?

If I could have just one?

Easy. The Barrett M468 6.8SPC.

Maybe a Kimber Pro CDP II .45 ACP. Santa’s gonna need a Visa Card.

If money is no object, an Armalite AR-10. Since money is the object, a CZ-82 and 500 rounds of S&B 9×18mm.
