Max Power will buy this,

Thanks - I've seen it before although the wife hasn't. Hope there's not a lot of snow on the ground. Was out there 2 years ago for Xmas and it was about 3 feet deep.

really?

Same here, but other than my wife - I have no family. So just hanging out with her for a week is always fun.

We usually take a trip somewhere the week of Xmas 'til New year's. This year will be the Grand Canyon and Xmas in Santa Fe, New Mexico. With the traditional Burnin' Bunghole Burrito Xmas dinner.

If you have time while your at the Grand Canyon, you should check out the Painted Desert. http://www.arizona-leisure.com/painted-desert.html It's really pretty.

Since it so slow on here right now, I'll try to spark a little bit of friendly conversation.

What do you enjoy about the holiday season? Any special memories you have?

Well for me it's got to be spending time with family. You reach a certain point in your life and you realize that Thanksgiving and Christmas aren't about the food or presents, it's about spending time with those you love and care about. Don't get me wrong, I love the food but it's family and friends that are important to me.

We used to go to my grandparents on Christmas Eve. My dad's side of the family would all go over their for dinner and presents. Every grandkid had their own spot in the family room where the presents would be sitting. Since my grandpa died in Sept 2001, the family stopped staying in touch. He really kept everyone together. My grandma still has the chair (shes's in a condo now) where my presents were always placed. After my little sister was born, her presents went on the matching stool. Every time I visit her, I have a lot of good memories when I look at the chair.

Now that I am married the something else I enjoy about this season is that my wife gets to visit with her family. We either go to PA or her parents come down here. It's great to see her so happy spending time with her mom and dad. She doesn't get to see them a lot, so these times are very special to her.

Anyone have anything else they'd like to share?

scottie called him wingbut.

I should neg rep you for that

Chevy isn't alone in his M&P fanboi-ness.

+1 I'll have to get you later though, I am out tonight.

Just sayin .38 to .380 is a big jump.

I know you were. I just thought it was neat to see so many of them lined up like that.

Here's another, more comprehensive comparison:

Hey look, a Glock!

I got mine new with two holsters, two mags(no clips) case, speed loader, mag holder, cross breed holster, and 300 rounds of ammo for about the same price.

Mine came with the case and three backstraps as well.

Aw don't feel bad chevy I spent the extra money I saved not buying a m&p on ammo and a holster.

I didn't buy new, came with 3 mags and night sights as well as 4 boxes of hollow points and 2 or 3 boxes of FMJ. $500

Well, I picked up the new addition just a little bit ago. I went with the S&W BODYGUARD 380. I was set on the Ruger before I got there but after comparing the side-by-side I loved the feel and look of the S&W. Bought a pocket holster as well as some Hornady Critical Defense ammo. I could not pass up the sale either on this gun. It's original price is listed at $499 and it was on sale for $349...

Here she is...

Good choice. Looks good!

That's sweet. I'd rock one if I had the bike for it. I'll post it up so people don't have to download it:

If a man says something in the woods' date=' and no woman is around to hear him, is he still wrong?[/quote']

That's a trick question. She should be in the kitchen.

Why you need those the m&p is ghetto enough as is.

Man, everybody be hatin' yo.

Yeah don't listen to me. The laws are just guidelines anyways. No specifics, but I know first hand how a stupid rule about not allowing guns and one gets brought can cause a bunch of BS.

Scott.. tell me you realize that is a photoshopped image' date=' plz.

Jst2Slo.. The HiPoint C9 was my very first handgun. After some magazine tweaking, it was a solid shooter. I wouldn't carry one, though. Never mind it's reliability status.. it's just too fucking ugly.[/quote']

Seriously? Damnit, I just ordered a set.

Well as long as you keep bumping it, I'll keep voting. I'll forget if you don't bump it lol

Maybe Im just not used to looking at an AK with a scope... ha ha ha.

Very true. The scope would become useless after it was buried for 10+ years.

I voted again but I don't know...
