Gift from my brother

Kansasgunner · Mar 16, 2025

My younger brother was in for a visit last weekend. He said since he had no idea when or if I planned to retire he was giving me my retirement gift from him now. He knows how much I like the Centennials and he made a great pick.

It means the world to me!

Nice gift, congratulation's when and if you decide to retire. My vote would be retire and enjoy yourself while you still can.

Nice Centennial and I like the stocks you have on it. Are they camel bone?

Regarding retirement there are a lot of factors to consider not the least being financial stability, but if you feel set I highly recommend it.

I retired very early and have never looked back. When deciding when to go I just kept thinking that every day I continue to work was one less day I would enjoy in retirement.

Whenever you make your decision I wish you good luck and a happy retirement.

Oh, and your brother is a keeper

Nice to see that my brother and I aren't the only ones who gift each other guns. Family bonds are priceless and I am willing to bet that beautiful revolver quickly becomes a personal favorite. I know there is a lot of sentimental value in the one my little brother got me.

The stocks are elk by Patrick Grashorn.
Yes I’m lucky,he is a great brother and a friend.

Tim, What a gift, and what an awesome brother.

I wish my brother was around just to be able to talk to. Unfortunately, he was 3 years younger than me and passed 17 years ago.

My brothers will flip them for a profit.

Don't get me started on my boys. But my grandchildren are okay.

I second the motion.

My son, who has now passed away, gave me a S&W Shield for a birthday gift.
Needless to say, I cherish that gun and would never trade it.

I would like to thank Kansasgunner for not using "gift" as a verb. I know it's entered the lexicon, used by distinguished sources everywhere. Still causes me to grit my teeth.

Nice revolver!

Gift from my brother
