Excuses!

"Honey I won a contest where this Blaxsun guy is giving away a bunch of AR parts"*
*NB only works if she receives the package but doesn't pay attention to the credit card bills.

Or the ol' standby, "If the SHTF, I am gonna need that Leupold, AFG, dozen LAR15 mags, and Geissele S3G to protect you and the children...think of the children!" :)

And for what it is worth, all of the guys who beat their chests and say grow a pair, well in my experience they are usually the most puzzy whipped of all :p
 
Haha

Already have all the bikes, quads...

Wife was looking at Blaxsuns mag sale before i went out of town and said "honey this guy has the lancers and the pmags you wanted!"

I thought that was the green light untill she got pissed off when i said "so i can buy em?"

An as for the guys who say dont listen to the wife and grow a pair... Either your single or have alpha male syndrome over the net....shortly before the wife tells them to get off the computer and do the dishes hahaha
 
Compromise? Well its not an excuse to buy the parts but it agreeable...


Fyi she bought me my upper for fathers day:cool:

maybe shes right, some times its ok to have a sober second thought and a "do I realllly NEED this:

a lady who bought you an upper sounds pretty cool with your habit, and it never hurts to delay the gratification a bit.
 
show her a picture of a catastrophic failure and tell her, "see, this can happen if I don't get these parts." If she cares about your own personal safety is your only factor in this.
 
A happy wife is a happy life.

Anyone who tells you differently has a thing or two comin' to them.

Here's my way of dealing with my toy expenses (firearms, music instruments and gear, etc): pay CASH as much as you can. If you're comfortable in putting $2,500 on a CC, then that's fine as well, but save up the coin and show her that you aren't putting the household financial situation / budget in crisis.

My wife has never said a thing for any of it..it's a question of being responsible. We'll have to get the roofing redone on our house this fall (it's a 15y/o house with basis builder shingles..) and it's going to run us about $5,500 for the higher end product. Will I be buying another black rifle until then. Nope. Why? Cause I don't need the grief, both from her and the financial burden & headacke!!
 
If the wife won't dig into her purse and give you your balls back, try growing a pair. Who wears the pants in your house?

Or is it just that the really pussy whipped guys who have to ask the wife's permission to spend $50 of their hard earned money just can't fathom that other guys are still in possession of their balls? It may make you feel better to imagine that the rest of us are just as whipped as you but that doesn't make it true.

I brought home a $10,000 motorcycle without even telling the wife I was going to purchase it. It's my money, I worked for it and I am gonna spend it as I choose. The house bills are paid and she agrees my money is mine to spend.

What kind of marriage is based on lying to your wife? I don't lie to my wife and she doesn't give me a reason to lie to her.

The trick to happyness is to choose more wisely when you marry. Im not sure if I should feel sorry for the guys who chose a controlling wench. You made your bed ....

But do tell us how you really feel :rolleyes:

Its not a question of asking, in my situation at least, but one of just sayin' "hey i'm looking at getting this soon".

Simple and to the point.

But I don't see you agreeing to even that.

Hmmm, aren't you a catch! ;) Just messing with you.
I don't lie to my wife either but we don't have "my money" and "her money". No need to feel sorry for me, I have a wonderful wife and the words "controlling" and "wench" are about the last ones anyone would choose to describe her. I'm lucky and I know it. I don't have to worry about explaining my gun expenditures but it is not because its my money and I am a gunna spend it how I want! Actually, now I kind of feel sorry for you...
 
Oh FFS OP, just buy the damned thing!!!

"It's easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission!!!":p

Immediately after it arrives in the mail (or even before), take wifey shopping and do NOT cringe at the prices of the stuff she's gonna buy!!!

Win-win for both of you!!!
