My wife said you guys need to stop putting stuff on sale.
I disagree, but don't tell her i said that!

on a related note, Visa bumped my limit up!

Seriously though, fantastic sales last couple weeks!
ive been wanting to upgrade and increase my AR collection and your sales on NEA uppers and lowers was just the perfect thing i needed!

and that "let me know when this item is back in stock via email" thing is deadly!!!!

job well done guys (and gals)
 
Yep I'm running out of friends that keep "lending " me there guns. If my wife knew I bought all these new toys ; a divorce would be on deck.
 
I frequently buy guns.

When I pull one out that she hasnt seen before and asks about it I'm always like 'I've had that for a long time' or 'I traded another one for it' I've even said 'I think you shot that last time we went shooting, dont you remember' and she will just give me the look.....

she might be savvy to me... but it all works...

The wife being mad is totally worth it

This is another thing I always factor into new purchases. Even though I know she's gunna be mad, and we're probably going to have a fight about it, the make up ### is totally worth it. Sometimes it's just better (and funner) to beg forgiveness than ask permission.
 
Careful Sinbad, I thought my wife gave up, turns out she's still got some kick in her after all... At least its my left eye thats black and blue, I can see through the scope on my MV when it gets here. Unless she punches my other eye.:cool:
 
I stopped trying to downplay every toy purchase as I get caught all the time. Better to ask for forgiveness than permission!
 
For the first few years she would just shrug but I had to also buy her one too. So we have doubles in almost everything: cz75b, Keltec KSG, lever action bush rifles (30-30 for her and 44 for me), Mossberg 500's, though hers matches her cz as it's a mariner, and a pair of Vz58's, 10-22's, and 30 caliber hunting rifles.
It was getting expensive to buy two of everything.

Now, she wants me to start selling off some of the stuff she can't use for hunting. She has hinted that the money from any sales should go to further investment in the backyard but since I don't have that in writing...
 
My wife is as impressed with firearm sales as my pharmacist was when there flyer showed tylenol with codine was on sale. He threw his arms in the air and yelled "codiene never goes on sale". I showed him the flyer and then he yelled "its a mistake".
I laugh every time i think about that.
 
Meh....I usualy have them shipped to her business as their is always someone there to recieve it. Then she brings it home for me.
She just asks....what did this one cost?.....some times I feel the need to avoid,dodge or change the subject...I never lie to her.
She usualy wants to check it out and then asks when we are going shooting?

You just need to get so many guns that she looses count of what you own. Then when you buy a new one you can tell her it's an old one and shes even shot it before a long time ago. Works all the time
 
I have a small gun and my wife already bored playing with it, so, she ask me if she can try a bigger one. I told her I can get her one. I ask if she can handle a BBC (Big Black Carbine). She gulp in excitement
 
I recently filled my cabinet to its limit last month, My wife says shes going to get me another cabinet for christmas, Im like...but then Id buy more guns, she just smiled and nodded.....

She is up to something o_o
 
My Baby never blinkes as I add to the collection to pass on to the kids.... She couldn't harness the .375 H&H that well ( glad I had QD rings ) but kept it on paper quite nicely. I told her she would be out of her league with a .416 Rigby and I was instructed to purchase one to find out! She who must be obeyed shall be....
