Got to go to Harris Park to sight in some rifles and had the place to myself for the first hour and then a family showed up and shoot with me for another hour. Left when some young kids with shotguns showed up and started blasting a bunch of crap.
Bradley smoker and RC helicopter.
That's a good haul. What helo is it? I have been wanting one of those quad-copters for a while.
I didn't get much other than a shirt or two. This year was about the kid and relatives, they made out pretty good.

I got a book on prepping (my wife apparently thinks I'm a crazy prepper because I like stocking up on food when its on sale among many other things), a stool for my reloading bench (goodbye crappy medical shower chair), and a bench vise.
Get to open the rest of my presents when I get home from work on Friday.
Got nothing. Same goes with my wife. My kid got tons of gifts.
For a consolations, we did get massive quantities of Christmas cards. :)

I got to not work a 12hr day. Contrary to the media reports we were busting our butts every day.
A toolbox, little skil battery screwdriver, victorinox swiss card, and a leatherman rebar. Pretty stoked, wasn't expecting a thing. Having 3 kids I swear if I stacked the presents up they'd be two times the size of the tree. My first leatherman!

I like doing it this way..... What I got compared to what I asked for and didn't get...
What I got:
Socks.
Snow gloves.
Pajama pants.
A long sleeve basic black shirt.
A short sleeve dress shirt.
A juicer.
What I asked for but didn't get:
Good socks.
Why is this important? Because I won't use or wear anything I got. Which makes me feel bad.
Oh. And because I'm a selfish materialistic douche bag.
Yep. Merry Christmas.
Sent from my teepee using smoke signals.
I got about $650 in gift cards/checks.
I got a couple actual presents.
Tea Tumbler thing that holds heat like hell.. Tea was still scalding hot 4 hours later.
Wine.. Some wretched Japanese whiskey..
N'ice cubes (reusable ice cubes for whiskey so as not to water it down).
All in all not a bad haul.. What to buy myself now..

My latest gift is a pretty bad cold that has set in during the past 24hrs. Serious congestion (sinus only above right eye is killing me), uncontrollable cough, itchy and painful throat. Worst of all, don't have any cold medicine and can't get any until I get home on Friday. [facepalm]
I received a Glock 36 with 6 mags (3 plus 1 and 3 standard). I can not divulge the details of every present I received. I will give some hints, I have relatives that mail wrapped presents from a free state and they are larger than 15. 16 onces I think

A pair of flannel pajama bottoms and a new meat thermometer since the old one went missing last month. The grandchildren made out like bandits but with a small twist.
One of the granddaughters got a RC rock crawler and the two grandsons that were here at the time got all butt-hurt about it. [panic] She took it out to try and they about lost it. They keep acting the way they do and next year she gets a real gun and they get stuck with nerf again since they seem to have no self control.
She may not be the oldest but she is my favorite. For all those that have kids and other family us grandparents do have favorites and we do not give a shit what you think. [LOL]We are too old but still remember what you did to us and that is what drives us. [Flower]
The folks bought me a M1 Garand. Never been around one before so I'm headed to the range on friday to go through it and put a few rounds through it.

They are the stainless ones. Should I be worried?

Oh yes, the wife already banished me to one of our guest bedrooms until I get better, when I get home from work that is. Funny thing is, when she's sick, I get banished to the guest bedroom to "protect" me.

Nice CZ! Is it your first rifle from them?
As far as toy guns goes, the kids love the marshmellow blasters. Ours got the small marshmellow shooter and it works pretty well.
Some clothes, boots, bass pro gift cards and a little bit of family time.

If you haven't already, check out the Honor Harrington series by David Weber. I'm always willing to share the addiction. Book 1 is "On Basilisk Station"
Baen offers the Advanced Reader Copies for free online if you don't want to drop the cash, but the books are pretty reasonable.

Hi lift jack for the truck, chest rig, binoculars, .22 resetting target, electronic ear muffs, and some camo. I was 100% happy.

Tried em out last night.. They work well. I can say this whiskey was a lot better than the other Japanese stuff I had on xmas eve. We certainly win in making whiskey.

The Baen Free Library has lots of good free hard SF as well as fantasy. If you like military SF, also check out John Ringo's Posleen War series and Eric Flint's 1632 series. The first books in both are free from Baen (as is On Basilisk Station).
