I got a small metal sculpture of a guy working on a motorcycle, a trick Malco oil filter wrench and some air tools.
I bought myself an inexpensive air rifle because Mrs. Santa didn't believe that I wanted one. We had fun shooting empty Target boxes. At 30 yards it takes 6 pumps to minimize pellet drop.

Yep, he found a nice Ridgeline for me.

Yes, a couple days early he bought me a full-time permanent job after 20 months of looking.

Santa didn't bring me a noga dial indicator stand.

But amazon did deliver a budget friendly alternative that doesn't suck like the harbor freight one!

Another engraved firearm from Kentucky. SW 44 mag, non-fluted, 6 shot, two inch barrel.

Man toytuff, that looks like a handful of recoil.

I have a 6" barrel Colt Trooper III .357 magnum, I love it. Very accurate and smooth action with light trigger pull.

.357 is one of my favourites. I have a S&W Model 66 with a 6" barrel for about 38 years.

Im sure however this is NOS and never will be fired. 95% of my firearm’s are never fired. Occasionally buy used depending on condition, manufacture and model.

You bet! Love Colts and collecting Snake Models. Have six, looking for Viper and BOA. BOA was manufactured one year and expensive.

Warm socks and long underwear, gift card and a shirt. Then my wife thought she didn't give the son in law and grandkid enough so she took my new pullover shirt and a couple pair of my socks and gave them to them

Yes!

I got Gasolina boots

A few years ago I traded a lawn tractor for an AMT stainless 45. They are not known for being the most accurate but I could outshoot my nephew with his Kimber. In this case he had a worst case Kimber 45 and I had an exceptional AMT. He bought a new Les Baer 45 and jumped two classes where he was shooting at the time. Santa brought him a large caliber polished brass finish lever action rifle. He said he probably won't shoot it either.

Santa gave me the okay to get a C7 Corvette.

You must have been a good boy, Jeremy! Maybe a C8 should be in your future!!

Those Gasolina boots are awesome. I got a work boot with metatarsal guards caught between the shifter and footpeg once, stopped in a parking lot couldn't get the low side foot down and over I went.

Thanks

And auch! I almost went down in front of my gate. Got home and my shoe lace was caught on the shífter - I do double knot on them ever since.

I got White's Boots, hand made to fit my skinny ankles. They are the best boots that I have ever owned. Made in Spokane WA and will last longer than me.

I’ve looked at these more than once. Need breaking in or OK from the start?
