Considering I’m going to surprise him AND his mother, I better stick to a ‘sporting’ gun.
I’ll still need a place to sleep :) Too funny though.
From my limited knowledge of the Citadel, it is basically a military based school with many of its graduates going on to military careers.
Historically, the proper firearm presented to a military officer is a .45...........
I'm prejudiced I guess, a good friend of mine gave his son a .45 upon his graduation from West Point................
He's your son so it's your call.........
