What did you buy yourself for Christmas?

Well.... 😞

Some highly needed self-bought presents from a well-known airgun store did not ship till almost 3 weeks after I ordered them.

â–ª There was no indication when I ordered that any of the items were not in stock.
â–ª Or that it would take this long to ship something small and simple out....
â–ª I have no idea for the reason of the delay.
â–ª Nor was I warned of such an unacceptably long delay.


➠ So, my "presents" did not make the flight to Peru that my airgun mule is catching now.... 😞

It will be another 8 o 10 months before the next airgun mule flies down here.... 😞

My new NV500 digital scope will arrive before Xmas. It will be a little whore for a while moving from gun to gun. So far, my Savage .223, the Walther bullpup .22, the .270 will require some mounting provisions. Of course the Blitz will get it's turn. Likely the first time I've spent more on an optic vs. the gun wearing it.
I also ordered up a couple more mags and a speedloader for my Hatsan Blitz. I love emptying mags and shall do so more often. It takes a whole lot longer to fill those mags, than it does to empty them. Hoping the Hatsan speedloader helps, the video looks good.
Tough to beat last years Xmas, we shut down our little company and retired. For Xmas we got ourselves a new Tesla Model 3 performance, it got new cabin air filters for this Xmas, other than swapping seasonal tires and wheels it's the only "maintenance" I've done in a year and 23 K miles of ownership, zero defects. It feels good to drive American again, especially when it is a markedly superior product. Hint..it ain't just the car. Electric would be a no go W/O the Tesla superchargers.

Update.
It seem like X-mas are back on, but not with my old mother, Simply too fragile and also for us not at all fit 2 children hard to move.
My little sister, probably need to get that neck spine surgery redone like it or not, and her knee still blown too after that work place accident.

Been buying presents today, mainly to the little ones my oldest niece have, but also found something for a couple of the older "kids "
Unsure by present for self, but sure it will have to wait until spring.
