I got an M-1A for Christmas!

[Adam Helmer]

Ok, it was a day late, but worth it. My son sent me a Christmas card that arrived on 12/26/09 with the cryptic message: "Dad, call me." I called and found out that on 12/24/09 he bought two M-1A Rifles and I get my pick "of the litter" in exchange for some other stuff.

The lad knew I had three Match M-14s in the past that I took to Camp Perry and he figured I needed a reminder of my old NH State High Power Rifle Team days. Yes, life is now good. I will get to show my son how to properly use and maintain an M-14 "clone."
