    Some of you know that my Father in Law passed away in our home from Cancer back in early June. While he was living with us he opened up and talked guns with me. I never knew he was into guns and as we clean his house I find more and more. We had a talk and he let me know he had a stash for buying guns hidden in the house, needless to say it was our secret. I have purchased a decent amount of ammo and I am building two AR's currently but decided to pick up a few guns for my birthday. I decided to grab an AK, and XDS .45 and a Tactical Shotgun which came home yesterday.

    Since I talked to you on the phone I found a few more pistols. Pops had a sweet S&W Model 57 .41 Magnum with 8" barrel that he never fired sitting new in box. Might just have a new Deer Handgun depending on whether I find the two .44 Magnums.

    Hey John,

    I keep my birthday under the radar on facebook, but it's Friday and I wanted to make sure I got this stuff in case I get some time to play. I also have two AR's I'm building and then I will be done for a while;)
