    Wanna find something for my father-in-law's Christmas gift. Let's set the price limit at $500 to start. Whatcha' got?

    Does he have a private range? A variety of reactive steel targets is an idea.

    A good, leather holster. Preferably an OWB belt slide verses a clip on or IWB.

    Trijicon RMR and a nice tactical light.

    Can’t go wrong with target ammo in caliber he has.

    As stated earlier, steel targets are nice.

    P365 if he doesn’t have one?

    I bought the parts for a dueling tree and welded it together. I get a lot of use out of it.

    With the ammo shortage as it is, a tricked out .22 that has a frame style and function controls similar to his carry gun to practice with would be a nice gift.

    If he’s a collector or just likes to have a bunch different guns check out the A. Uberti reproduction pistols. If he’s more into self defense, a Surefire x300 or XSC pistol light, or one of the better MRDSs. Also, old guns like original late 19th early to mid 20th century guns can be found pretty cheap as well.

    It’s more of an investment when it comes to in-laws.

    Good idea, Skins. We have a couple of Surefire flashlights, and they're awesome, so maybe that's the way to go. I'll take a look.

    Please keep the suggestions coming. Thanks, y'all.
