Much Better Than Santa

[hibbs]

This last Xmas was a big surprise!!! One of these guns I knew might be coming.The estate of a very good friend of mine, who recently died, hinted I had something coming. The other one was a total surprise! My best friend, a non- Smith collector, walks into my house and hands me a his .44 Mag.package. This gun I have admired for over 60years. He said "I don't have a use for this,and I know you like it. It's yours".
With Friends like these,WHO NEEDS SANTA CLAUS!
I share these pics with you.

You must be a good friend to earn friends like that. Congrats!

I do hope you bought them the most expensive bottle of their favorite adult beverage you could find. Those my friend are some worthy friends.

I have never seen a presentation box let alone the handgun which goes inside of one. That here are two of them on display shakes my soul. STUNNING!!!!!

You must be a hell of a fine guy and I'll bet the previous owners were happy and relieved to know these treasures were going to a good friend.

I don't get it...I'm a good friend to everyone I meet, and yet none of the cheap blowhards who call themselves my friends ever give me boxed early .44 Magnums......Ben

WOW! And both wearing cokes and having the complete package!
You've got some really generous friends! I'm sure you deserve them.

OP,
While I am not a fan of 44 magnum in general, to receive 2 pristine S&W's like that is the supreme compliment to your friendship.

WOW! And both wearing cokes and having the complete package!
You've got some really generous friends! I'm sure you deserve them.

While this is proof that the OP has some great friends, we don't know if he DESERVES them!! I have some good friends, but since I'm the gun nut in the bunch, they think THEY will be getting packages like this from me!

Thanks OP for sharing and what is in store for you on Feb 14th??
