Well, you can eliminate a new gun as your present .

Unless maybe it's a Jimenez. Ouch.

I had given up on a gun this year already. Here's how it went down.

Wife: "what do you want for Xmas, besides a Glock 26?"

Son: "what do you want for Xmas, besides a Glock 26?"

Mother: "what do you want for Xmas, besides a Glock 26?"

Mother-in-law: "what do you want for Xmas, besides a Glock 26?"

"Um, maybe a 27. Honey."

Just 10 years ago I got a speeding ticket in southeast Iowa. 70 in a 55. Wrote me up for 65. I don't know what that might have meant in a dollar difference. Didn't ask.
I thought for sure it would be about $150. Along a straight country road in the middle of no wheresville on my way to DesMoines.
When he said it was $65 I said, show me where to sign.
C Ya!!

By the by, my first REAL car was a $500 74 Pinto in 77.

Must have been the going rate at the time.

Ahhhhh, those were the days my friend.....
