What did you get yourself for Christmas?

Our biggest gift was a trip to the eastern cape with my son, 13 yr old grandson, my son-in-law and my other 13 yr old grandson. 9 yr old granddaughters got a weekend away with beauty and the beast live theater tickets. Also got a savage .25/06 youth model to practice beforehand and for next deer season. Lots of work to do yet but excited for all.
 
I got the go ahead from the wife to gift myself the following:

A 12b Army&Navy "best", built around 1905, 30" barrels, 15" stock, with a strong 5/8" cast-off (that fits my broad frame perfectly.)
 
fixed the cylinders on my air gun and bought a compressor to fill the cylinders
 
However I bought my wife a flight in a spitfire

I’m tempted to ask to be your wife now… :D

That’s an awesome Christmas gift!
 
A new project rifle. DMW Brazilian Action, with a Brno barrel in .458WM

Started Dec. 11th and still not done with my gift. A messed up shoulder and a pinched nerve in my neck. Just had an MRI this morning... yay... (I'm usually much better at gift giving)

Jerome, do you think my last post in rough camping must maybe shift as an article?
