Best Christmas present ever! Congrats!
10/22 cheap tacticool build:
got the factory 10/22 early Dec, got the power custom charging handle and tactical solutions mag release a couple weeks ago, and the ATI fiberforce stock and bushy scope for christmas![[smile]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/001.gif "Smile [smile]")
the tactical solutions mag release doesn't really play well with pistol grips, its just a tad too long.
havent had a chance to shoot it in the current config yet.
still need to get a sling, maybe some banana mags, and I want to get tech sights too, but switching back and forth between those and a scope will be a pain, so i might have to get another 10/22![[laugh]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/012.gif "Laugh [laugh]")

Thanks guys!
I did get off Gunbroker but at what I think is a good price: $700. I saw an identical one go for $900 about a year ago on GB.

Single shot, it'll be too slow to take down fast zombies. But dizzam, it is a beast of a gun.
All thanks to GOAL for the raffle!
Jon said there was a substantial buttpad on it. I think it needs to eat a few more funnel cakes before I trust my shoulder to it....and your shoulder in the back yard!Congrats on the acquisition, pdm!
This thing got around Vicki's "no more guns until after the upstairs bathroom rule."
Mostly because I walked out with a serviceable 12ga and 4 boxes of 00 buck for under $130...but also partially because of the sweet '70s greenish wood stain finish, the genuine USGI leather sling (genuinely old and falling apart), and the sweet electrical tape that holds the front sling loop in place.
Haven't shot it yet, but I've got to say that I'm VERY happy with the gun. Much smoother than I thought it'd be, and I haven't even had time to go over it and clean it fully yet.
Stevens Model 67 Series E, 12ga, 21-ish inch barrel. Should throw slugs well enough to kill a deer, shot well enough to amuse myself breaking clays at least for a little while, and 00 buck well enough.

Not a gun but a Benchmade model 906 mini tanto stryker with nitrous assisted opening. 3 inch combo blade, sharp enough to shave with. I ordered this from Blade HQ on Monday, and it was here today (Wednesday), about $55 under msrp. No more carrying a dull generic POS knife for me anymore!
Wow, Santa was good to you!

Better late than never!
Received this NEF Pardner back in October as a karma from atmay here on NES.
Stripped, buffed and re-blued myself...it looks like new and kicks like a mule!![[crying]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/006.gif "Crying [crying]")
Then in November Michael J. Spangler made 2 of these for my son and me.
A little paracord and made mine into a neck knife! The cutting edge is only 1 1/2 inches long and if need be I could perform surgery with this baby it is so sharp!
Great stuff now I need to save my money for guns, ammo and Spangler!!!![[banana]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/029.GIF "Banana [banana]")

Nice score. Did you find a time capsule somewhere?
Very nice, it is about time I got rid of my Wally-world Kershaw. Think I'll have a look around BladeHQNot a gun but a Benchmade model 906 mini tanto stryker with nitrous assisted opening. 3 inch combo blade, sharp enough to shave with.

I got some furniture for the AR. The AR is a Colt MT6400C, basically a MA compliant M4. My awesome girlfriend got the Tapco, polymer, railed, handguard and the FAB hand-grip/bi-pod. She also has a CAA pistol grip coming. I just bought the EOTech XPS sight for myself.
