Well, my girlfriend has finally got smart and started listening to all the little hints about different things that I want for christmas. Since she doesn't know anything about guns or products related to guns and self defense and competetion shooting she told me to make a list. The good thing is her grandpa has a police and emergency rescue supply store in Montana.
So, she can get pretty much anything either Very cheap, or free

... I was just wondering what some of yalls suggestions would be in this situation? I've got a couple things in mind, but I wanna make sure I don't miss anything I may not know about for whatever reason... Thanks

It seems to me that the easy way to make your Christmas list would be to ask her grandpa for an inventory list. You could then take the list, cross out "inventory" at the top and write in "Christmas List".

...it may be a good idea to "prioritize" the list before giving it to her.

Yeah thats my plan... I'm gonna put the most wanted stuff at the top, and tell her to work her way down :P that is once i get the list made

I'm think 10 or less items depending on expensive/bulkiness... I'm ruling out actual firearms and ammo and probably blades since were flying to seattle, and he's flying to seattle from montana then I have to fly BACK to Loisiana... theres too many opportunities to have somethin confiscated for some bs flight rule reason...

Grandpa may own a shop but a Gift Cert to www.midwayusa.com doesn't hurt. No matter how hard I tried I could never get anyone to give me that. Only thing I have ever wanted.
