Dammit, they phoned while the wife was home.

My latest shpeel...

"Honey, this guy (m14doctor) is going to jail and he had to sell all his riles really quick before the boys seized 'em. It's a custom job that is well over $1500 bucks and he's letting it go for only $500"

"Well I geuss."

Gun came today, bought her a huge bouquet of flowers, shes absolutley distracted and thinks I'm so romantic. Forgot I got a new gun alltogether. Women have the attention span of cats guys. Remember this. They are easily distracted by...
-nice smelling things
-pretty things
-MAC makeup
-jewelerry
-nice dinners
-foot rubs
-back rubs
-head scratchings
-spa treatments
-manicures
-pedicures
-shoes

I'm telling ya guys... just pick (minimum) 2 items from this list and present it to your spouse/girlfriend/mistress upon receiving your new toy and ABRACADABRA?
"What gun? Oh you're so sweet baby I love you so so so much."
"Hey thanks babe, gotta go run to the store brb"
"Oh hey, what's that?
"I bought a new toy sweety, remember? Zombies? 2012? Terrorist bipedal grizzly bears?"
"Oh your so cute." (obviously still distracted from presents and not angry)

Works every time boys.

BTW thanks carsmovies for that beautiful rig, lol. m14 doctor had nothing to do with this and hes not in jail just incase anyone is wondering, however I did buy one of his custom jobs.
 
Personally, I find it easier to use as collateral. Told the current girl if she stills owes anything on her bills by January (minus her car loan), I would NOT be rewarding ourselves with a vacation to somewhere warm (I have no troubles meeting personal financial goals... Her, not so much.)

I would instead buy myself a new US Optics scope for an equivalent amount of vaca-$$$ if she doesn't get out of bad debt. Boy, did that ever get her going. :D
 
Huh. Glad I'm not the only one. I get the ol. That's the last Gun your getting till ... Gets paid and I want... Done around here. So keep what you got and work with it because THAT'S IT till next year.
So I agreed. (Unfortunately). But I explained hunny that's fine but what about ammo and "parts" to keep them going.
She said that's fine but no more guns.
Lol now she is pissed off with all the parts aka Accesorrys showing up lol. Scopes, magazines, ammo, MBUS. Grips etc.
Hey she said parts were ok.
 
ATTA BOY! Layin' down the law!

Haha... my mom is sort of indifferent with my collection... she liked my little Grizzly, 'cause I brought it blueberry picking last summer when I was staying there... other than that, she's happy with her lever gun and her bolt action .410... she'll shoot anything we bring to the pit though... sometimes to everyone's great amusement...
 
I guess I have it good then.....

As long as I get her one I can get myself one.....

or bribe her with some 50 bmg shooting....yeah that works to....

She made me do a display cabinet for the living room where some of the guns could be displayed.... not that I objected to the idea... the only problem is that the current cabinet is full ans she's asking for a new one... witch means only one thing... new guns.... woohooo.... time to hit the benchsaw I guess.
 
It's called time

HA ha My wife was standing behind me reading and shaking her head... My armoury is too small to hide purchases... my student budget doesn't leave much room for new toys and my darn conscience would beat me up and spit me out if I even tried to hide something... I dunno.. maybe i'm an exception, but I love my happy marriage more than new guns.

Good for you, don't forget the only constant is change. People change at different rates and times. What you need to watch out for is when she starts buying more guns than you.

Hmmm. Not bad.
 
My X gf just grumbles about me doing anything firearms related. I get the "I know lots of people that hunt and they NEVER bring their guns out of the closet until hunting season."
My reply was how many of them have filled a tag in the last 10 years.....I filled mine opening day.....told her I would..... The new gf thinks their fun too shoot but is in no hurry to get her PAL. Can't have everything I guess.

When I bought my SVT-40 last summer, the little lady asked if I would be able to find the proper bayonet with it? " it would be a shame not to have all the original accessories for it..."

So I found one:p
