Exclamation Welp, here I sit on Christmas morn....
-6 below....6am in the morn...12 hr shift...no one around...things could be worse!

Opened my M39 Finn...absolutely perfect barrel...Ex.cond, just a couple little dings in the stock (I guess at 62 yrs old you have a few dings, eh Oxford?)

Got a bunch of stuff from the NRA catalog...t-shirts...sweatshirts...wallet...some super thick socks to deal with these cold winter morns...got a good wife there somtimes!

MERRY CHRISTMAS GUYS AND GALS.... :nod:

Good for ya, NRAJoe!

Around here, New Years Day is almost as noisy as Independence Day - good time to take a new gun out and try her out!

" . . . got a good wife there somtimes!"

Ooh! You need to give her a little something extra for a comment like that!

Haven't opened up all the presents yet, but I did manage to get the $100 buckeroos from the parents. Can you say, hello 91/30. Can't wait to get it ordered. It will be my first military surp. weapon.
