But, hey.\u00a0 There\u2019s a reason our country and our society make this a positive, giving time of the year, so let\u2019s get with the Christmas spirit, already!\u00a0 Don\u2019t be a grumpy old cat, or even a Grumpy Cat\u2122.<\/p>\n

I discovered Grumpy Cat\u2122 on the informative, not-exactly-PG-rated SIG Forum, in a thread those in fealty to felines will relate with at http:\/\/sigforum.com\/eve\/forums\/a\/tpc\/f\/230601935\/m\/7920086772<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Whether you\u2019re a Gun Person with a wish list, or buying for other gun owners, check out the Zombie\u00a0 Quick Draw \u00a0handgun case.\u00a0 Now, if you\u2019re familiar with my writing, you know I\u2019m not too hot for the zombie bullshit that is so pervasive now.\u00a0 (If you\u2019re not <\/em>familiar with my thoughts on that, you can check them out here, in the current issue of GUNS <\/em>magazine. http:\/\/www.gunsmagazine.com\/night-of-the-living-zom-b-s\/<\/a>\u00a0 .)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fortunately, this really cool gun case doesn\u2019t actually say <\/em>\u201cZombie\u201d on it anywhere. It does <\/em>hold half a dozen handguns, and some spare magazines, in a sturdy, handy rolling piece of luggage. Most of us who go to the pistol range go with more than blaster.\u00a0 I got one of these cases for my sweetie, who goes to Glock matches (and some other shooting tournaments) with a whole \u201cbox o\u2019 Glocks,\u201d and she just loves it.\u00a0 Hint, hint, Christmas gift buyers\u2026 \u201cIt\u2019s worth every penny, and in line price-wise with my Pelican cases,\u201d my Evil Princess avers, and you can order it from: http:\/\/www.casecruzer.com\/gun-cases\/qd-handgun-6pack.html<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Now, if someone on your gift list should be a Smith & Wesson aficionado, you can order the sort of thing my late, lamented mentor Bill Jordan was associated with naming, \u00a0a \u201cpemmican book\u201d: It\u2019s thin, but it\u2019s meaty and has lots of nourishment in it.\u00a0 What I\u2019m talking about is \u201cMy Life Journey With Smith & Wesson\u201d by Dwayne Charron, who retired as director of research and development from S&W after decades with the company.\u00a0 Charron piloted some fascinating guns from \u201cwhat if\u201d to full production: the exquisite Model 41 .22 target pistol, the little Model 61 Escort pocket size .22, and the Model 76 submachine gun that was successfully cloned from the Swedish K, along with many more.\u00a0 The book is $19.95 plus $3.00 shipping, and $29.95 with shipping free if you\u2019re lucky enough to get one of the few remaining copies signed by the author. You can order from http:\/\/www.mljwsw.com\/<\/a>. I learned about it from Lee Jarrett, who runs the excellent, useful shooter\u2019s forum www.smith-wessonforum.com<\/a>.\u00a0 (Thanks, Lee!) I\u2019d have a copy of the cover to scan and show you\u2026but so many of my friends wanted to read it, it\u2019s not here now\u2026L.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
