Congratulations Mitchell, sounds like your parents got themselves one fine son and for sure you have got a couple of fine parents. Go hug your father (remember you never get to old to do that) and shake his hand and thank him, then hug you mom and tell her you love her,  thank her for the present and for all she has done for you, things you will probably never know. Then tell her you love her again and wish her a happy mothers day for all of us that can no longer tell our moms that. Savor the moment buddy, savor it and enjoy it, for to soon it will be gone, but remember, never forgotten....<><.... :grin:

:D  Congratulations Mitch, My wife homeschooled my eldest son so I know what you put your parents thru...  :)   That 1911 will forever be a family heirloom now to keep forever in the family, priceless.  Great parents you have, and they know they can trust you.  I still have the first 2 guns I ever owned, both gifts from my dad from over 30 years ago, a Ruger 10/22, and a Marlin 94 in 44 mag.  I'm keeping them forever.

Good for you Mitchell, Only those that are insecure in their own masculinity and are unsure of themselves in general would be afraid to hug and kiss their parents. I'm 59 and would and will hug my father and give him a kiss whenever I could. Sadly I can no longer hug and kiss my mother, but someday I will again. Unfortunately because of what I chose to do for a living for 32+ years I have had to many die when I was with them or near them and have much to often been in close proximity to death, usually of a violent nature. It's not nice but it's real and it makes you more appreciative of life, embrace it and you family and friends while you can, for to soon they will be gone. Live life, enjoy it, and thank God every day for what he has given us....<><.... :grin:
