    Just curious, what did people GIVE?

    -I am giving my Dad a DDM4 16" Daniel Defense carbine with ALG trigger and Rosch Works SL-1 sight/light and Troy rear BUIS.
    -I gave my former roommate a MAGPUL stock/forearm for his Mossberg 590a1, as well as 100 rounds of Winchester Ranger 00 for it.
    -Bought 2 of my friends matching TYR gunfighter belts with 2 "Happymag" 5.56 mag-pouches each, and an picking up a case of 5.56 for them, as well.
    -Bought my Mom and stepdad a Keurig.

    Most of my life, all I cared about was the stuff I got for Christmas, and when in college, I couldn't afford to give anyone anything, and even when I was younger, I understood the futility of buying my parents gifts with their own money. I personally get more joy out of buying people that mean a lot to me things than I do having things bought for me. Just curious what others are stuffing stockings with, this year!

    I'm working in Lagos, Nigeria during this holiday season. I gave our room attendant $20 [3000 Naira] so he could travel to be with his family and children until 06-Jan-14.

    Did something different this year. Each kid got 4 things:
    Something they want
    Something they need
    Something to wear
    And something to read.

    Got my wife a trip to Denver to see her friend who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer.

    That's rough. Prayers sent to your wife's friend.

    Cancer sucks :[

    Bought 2 of the MSGO lowers in the last group buy as Christmas presents for the 2 sons. Been buying all the other stuff as I could find it at a decent price.

    We normally open presents on Christmas Eve and I wrapped the stripped lowers in one box, their lower parts kits in another, the stock parts in another, the bolt in another, and the upper assembly in another box.

    I assisted the youngest putting his together last night. The oldest and his family came over for Christmas dinner today. After dinner the youngest helped the oldest complete his!! I was great watching them sit in front of YouTube cussing at times but finally accomplishing the mission!!

    To top it all off, the oldest, as he was getting ready to leave asked "Where is the Ammo?" These ain't much good without Ammo -- told him to come back tomorrow and we would take them out and give them a spin!!

    Of course the grandaughter has to get in every picture she can!!

    The little one got a playhouse, train table, and assorted other toys. He was more excited with the teal whistle. He blew that darn thing all day long.
    The wife got a north face jacket, some Michael ????? purse, a donkey, and the promise to finally start our home addition after hunting season!
    Got my mom a charm for her bracelet and the old man a gift card for a kydex holster for his S&W 9.
    Got my brother and my cousin a blind bag (mainly because I'm tired of having to pack extra crap for them while hunting) and my sister in law a scarf and tons of stuff for the soon to be new addition to the family.

    I think I gave mud for Christmas!

    My stepson (but only technically) gave me a new pair of boots for Christmas. He is a gamer and spends most of his time using his thumbs. I actually talked him into trying out my new boots himself and going for a long walk with me through the woods. Even saw a couple of deer and a rabbit or two. He kept saying "it's so quiet". Got back shivering and muddy, but I think he might be hooked. Well... maybe just a little. Win!
