Unfortunately that won't work for me, she actually spends very little on herself.

Then take her shoe shopping on the way to the gun shop.

That's a lot of shoes. I might have to be happy with the pellet version.

Actually, the MCX is the one I tried, not the MPX....it was fun.

S&W Sport II. What the world needs now is not love, sweet, love...but a good entry level AR. Sport I was good but from all the reviews I've read this is even better.
I agree about the Sport, it's a neat inexpensive AR. Bought my "slickside" two years ago, and may get two of the new Sport IIs just to keep new in box for the grandkids someday.

Would like to see Ruger make a polished stainless 3.5" birdshead grip New Vaquero in .357. They've come out with it in .44 Magnum & .45 Colt on the bigger frames, but I'd like to conceal carry the smaller .357 frame.

This is the Ruger that is intriguing.



6.5 Creedmoor long range shooter. The reviews are pretty positive and getting 1,000 yard shooter for $1,100 from a factory rifle is pretty amazing. I know guys that pay 4x that much for custom rigs...

I have a 44 redhawk. Built like a tank. I had also a Colt Anaconda sold it for 1k thinking it was a great deal now they are 2k. But I bought a Smith 4inch 629. Love that Smith 629 though.

My father told me yesterday he was looking for a Smith 44mag to shoot snakes on his ranch. He said he could not get snakeshot in 44special. I may have to check into that. I rarely see any snakes in my county.
He had a Colt Python for decades and sold it low. His current Smith he keeps in a holster he screwed on the side of his tractor. Leaves both tractor and revolver out in the open year round.

Yes, just looked it up. Most shotshells available for the 44 are 44spec/44mag.
