My wife is going to break me now

[Krull]

Decided to take her to the range ( it was her idea ) to learn to shoot. Now she wants HCP and a PPK. what have I done?

[saintsfanbrian]

You did a wonderful thing.

My wife is actually starting to talk about getting her permit.

She was waiting for the kids to get a little older and keep out of her purse.

I am trying to get my Wife to get her HCP

[Krull]

We watch a lot of reality crime and the fact that girls get raped and killed scared her. Watch the first 48 and shows like that. Your wives will come around if they see that.

[Krull]

Btw when she shot my model 94 it about knocked her out if the chair ( she weighs 116 soak and wet) and she was like heck yea! Let's do it again!

My wife has been shoot'n with me in the back yard for 15 yrs. loves shoot'n handguns, longguns not so much. Tak'n the HCP course soon as the weather warms up. She's done decided on purse carry, ( no, I can't talk her into body carry) so I got her a holster purse for Christmas, she loves it. It's got a lockable zippered compartment for the built in holster. She likes that in case she sits it down, will keep nosiey eyes out. She has 2 guns of her own and my guns she likes to shoot are "ours" haha. It's all good. Check her photo on TGO Facebook.

You did the right thing!

[Guest Bronker]

...what have I done?

You've narrowed the gap between the self-preservation mentality, and the victim mentality in the woman you love.

I'd say you've done the most honorable thing possible.

Even if she does kinda look like this guy...

[Krull]

Now that's funny.

[Guest SUNTZU]

12. (f) Have you ever been adjucated mentally defective (which includes having been adjucated incompetent to manage your own affairs) or have you ever been committed to a mental institution?

Glad she likes it. Now go spend money.

[ftncityfatboy]

simply love those tacticool pink gloves, I must have me some.....

[Guest Arko]

Been there. Now I've been spending the last year buying and trading guns to find HER just the right carry gun. (still searching, BTW)

[Sidewinder]

Good for you! With the both of you into guns, it'll be twice the fun! she's got to be our kind of lady. Pass her plenty of ammo!

Are you talking about MY wife? LOL Pretty much the same situation for me. She had one handgun when we got married, now she refers to all of them as her's. Well except for the ones for our son.

Krull,

Good on you and the little missus. Hopefully she will never have to use a firearm in self defense, but at least she is getting the tools to help in case there is ever a need.

[Krull]

Well now she wants one of these. Class 3 isn't to far away. Sheesh

[Guest Ae-35]

Yep, after I got a G26, I finally got "our G19" back, now am having to buy another G26, ( thanks Tom) Sure glad she don't like 1911's !!!!

[Guest SUNTZU]

You'd be best served setting it up as a trust at the rate you're going. I predict that by the end of 2010 your house will look like Burt Gummer's in Tremors.

[Guest Boogieman]

Getting my wife into shooting with me and the first gun she points out that she wants is a $1000 HK, lol. Told her that was a bit much for a starter piece so she stepped down to an $800 Glock...... Shes got taste for sure.

[Guest SUNTZU]

What was on that Glock that made it $800?

[Guest Boogieman]

What was on that Glock that made it $800?

May not have been a Glock but it was in the same case. I threw Glock out there because she was looking at them too. The shop we were visiting is WAY overpriced compared to most everything else I've seen. In any case she's got expensive taste, lol. Honestly I havent been back and dont really plan on it since I found another place to look thats not asking me to saw off a leg to make a purchase.

[Alpha7]

What was on that Glock that made it $800?

Dont ya know it had a lazer and flash light on it with a ghost trigger and 30 round magazines.

Sweet! I'm putting an ACOG on mine.

Boogieman, I think she'd be well served with either a Glock or XD, but I would definitely shop elsewhere. Or here on TGO classified. Anyone not a benefactor should become one...its for the children.

[Krull]

Well my wife now officially owns 4 weapons. P22 a ruger lcp, a walther Pk380, and a Remington 870 20.....yep I'm working on broke.
