Got some nice stuff, but nothing gun related.  But did receive enough cash to buy a nice model 91 that I seen for sale on one of the other trader boards.  Emaoled the guy about it, he said it was mine.  Now just have to wait for it to get here.
First liar doesn't stand a chance!

I got coal in my stocking. I guess Santa was giving me a do-it-yourself blackpowder kit.

Guys, I struck it rich this Christmas.  I got a brand new (only fired 25 rounds) 25 yr old Winchester 94 in 30-30, a new Steven King book (the last of his Wasteland series), a half pound of reaaaalllly good chocolate, a whole buncha good stuff for when I'm out looking for Bigfoot, a wicked smile from my secretary, an even more wicked kiss from my girlfriend and, an appointment after work today with the eye doctor for a new set of glasses.  

Oh yeah, almost forgot, a nice warm sunny weekend to go play on the range.  I'm set, and consider myself quite fortunate.  

Jack - a do it yourself black powder kit - wow man, that's cool!  Mikey.

I didn't get any guns/ammo or shooting supplies but I did get a digital camera from the wife  :grin:   I also recieved a yellow ceramic fish piggy bank from my four year old daughter  :-D

I did score enough cash from others to order a gun or 3.  I'm thinkin' hard about the 3 for $207 deal on the Swiss K31's from Century.  I have one already but I really like these guns.  Tried calling Century this morning but nobody is home  :(

Hope everyone enjoyed thier Christmas.

No new guns for me,this Christmas;I did get a nice levergun this past October.
I had to settle for a RCBS Aps priming system and a printer for my Oehler Chronograph.

My Christmas present to myself arrived this Monday from Shaw

I had Shaw rebarrel my old 1917 to a 35 Whelen Ackley Improved.  Sure is sweet.  If I had any doubts before...I sure DO NOT have doubts now.  I took two years to make the decision and it was a good decision.  They did a beautiful job.
