What a wife and daughter I have

Post by RPBrown »

My daughter stopped by my office a few minutes ago and says she is going to be out of town Monday (my birthday) and she was bringing my gift now. She puts an ammo box up on my desk. As i grab it to pull it over, it is heavy. I open it up and find that it is full of 5.56 ammo. I explained to her that out of all of my guns, I do not have one that shoots 5.56. Thats when my wife comes in carrying a cardboard box and lays it down on my desk. I open it up and there is a brand new Mossberg MMR--AR 15 with scope already mounted and 2-30 round magazines.

A good one is the best thing in the world. But they are very expensive to return if you don't choose wisely. :mrgreen:

Congratulations! But...no pictures, and it didn't happen.
Your best option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
When those fail, aim for center mass.

Awesome!
I have a MMR and have really enjoyed it.
Probably close to 2,000 flawless rounds down range.
Enjoy!

Happy birthday!

I agree, you've got a couple of keepers there!
