Look what I got for Christmas!
At the very bottom of my stocking on Christmas day was a little package from my dear Wife.
When I opened it up, imagine my surprise! She had seen it at a gun show she attended with me last September and asked the stall owner what it was. When told it was an Artillery Luger front sight adjusting tool, she decided that it was going to be my Christmas present (along with a trip to the SAR show at Phoenix)I never knew a thing about it until I opened the package. I have never seen one before, other than in books. I reckon she has to be worth a 45 Cal Luger. Regards Murray.

It sounds like your wife is the real keeper. You're a lucky man.

Really nice tool Murray... and I echo Norm's and your comments on your wife... a real keeper...easily worth the asking price on a 45 caliber Luger.

Very nice tool. Does it present any stamp? Actually I see some of them with acceptance stamp.
Also it is not usual to receive this kind of gift from our wifes!!! Compliment Cioa
