I&#8217;m having to think hard myself just to write this list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the people in your life who have been naughty, it&#8217;s easy, buy them a Hi-Point in the cheapest model you can find. Owning one, and maybe having to shoot it, will be much worse than any lump of coal or switch that Santa might bring. Ho ho ho. Ha, ha, ha. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All joking aside here are a few random ideas that just might be creative enough to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-gift-of-seeing-in-the-dark\">The Gift of Seeing in the Dark<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Every year multiple wives approach me and tell me that their husband said he wants a thermal for Christmas. They choke and swear when I give them the price range of what I think they&#8217;ll need to spend. Apparently, their husbands always leave out the part about what a thermal is going to cost hoping that I&#8217;ll convince their wives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thermals are awesome. You can literally see everything in the dark and they&#8217;re definitely next level for home defense, urban defense, homestead defense, hunting, outdoor living, or ranching. I honestly believe that when purchasing you need to plan on spending a minimum of $2,000, and $6,000 would be better, with the sweet spot being about $4,000. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recently have been testing thermals from Armasight. You can watch the video below. Armasight is a big name in Thermals and was one of the pioneers of modern thermals today. You can&#8217;t go wrong with any model from Armasight. Let your budget dictate the rest.

Vortex has changed that with the Impact 4000. It&#8217;s not inexpensive at a price of $1999, but it is available, has the Vortex warranty, and is feature-packed. <a href=\"https:\/\/vortexoptics.com\/vortex-impact-4000-ballistic-rail-mounted-laser-rangefinder.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"the-christmas-list-naughty-vs-nice\" title=\"The Christmas List - Naughty vs Nice\">Visit Vortex<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-gift-non-traditional-concealed-carry\">The Gift Non-Traditional Concealed Carry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re like me, you carry concealed pretty much everywhere. My traditional concealed carry garb consists of pants with a heavy-duty belt that you could probably pull a stuck 4&#215;4 out of a mudhole with. If I don&#8217;t have pants and a belt I don&#8217;t know how to carry since I refuse to fanny pack. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recently became aware of a company selling non-traditional concealed carry clothing. Shorts that you could play basketball or work out in. Sweats that you could lounge in, sleep in, or lift some weights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/InStudioPhotos-10_750x.webp\" alt=\"Arrowhead Shorts\" class=\"wp-image-195140\" title=\"The Christmas List - Naughty vs Nice\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/InStudioPhotos-10_750x.webp 750w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/InStudioPhotos-10_750x-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/InStudioPhotos-10_750x-150x150.webp 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Arrowhead tactical shorts have an internal belt capability and work with all IWB holsters. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The clothing doesn&#8217;t look tactical which is good in my opinion.

The Vulcan Arms Weatherlock waterproof rifle bag is built like an expensive soft-sided cooler with seam seals and waterproof zippers. It completely protected a very expensive rifle and accessories from multiple throws off a bridge into a cold river. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Currently, it&#8217;s only available in a size that fits AR15s or bolt actions that fold.

A former professional sponsored 3-Gun and Multigun competitor with multiple championships and titles, True\u2019s shooting career began in long-range and tactical sniper matches\u2014and he still burns powder in precision competitions, now branching into Hunter NRL. A certified firearms instructor who has trained over 10,000 students face-to-face, True has also served on both sides of the courtroom as an attorney and currently as an elected Prosecuting Attorney. He has prosecuted and defended high-profile self-defense and firearms cases, giving him a unique, real-world perspective on the Second Amendment. Outside the courtroom and off the range, True is a true western outdoorsman. A lifelong hunter and rancher, he rides and hunts off his own string of horses and pack animals, chasing elk, mule deer, wolves, coyotes, and anything else in season. He\u2019s a longtime reloader, producing both precision rifle ammo and, back in the day, handloading over 40,000 rounds of 9mm and 5.56 annually for competition. He\u2019s also a thermal and night vision expert, known for his obsession with high-end optics, and is rarely found without a camera or a guitar nearby. Whether he\u2019s glassing a distant ridge, reviewing cutting-edge gear, or deep in legal research, True brings passion, precision, and grit to everything he does.
