Hey guys,
Now you see what I'm talking about.
This is a Men Only forum, while it is Open to ALL gun owners.
The question that I have for you all is, What are you doing to get your significant other involved?
Most men that the Wife and I have encountered are telling their SO what HE thinks they should shoot or carry.
I think most men are willing to buy what ever gun SHE wants.
It's just that a lot of you are going about it in the wrong way.
Most women show up at the range at the insistance of their man. Most women have absolutely no interest in guns.
The Only women that I have met that have an interest are those that realize that the real world is Not a nice place and is very
dangerous place for women.
Most women kinda don't want to know or see the real dangers.
No matter what we do, until They realize what can happen to them any place will they really get interested.
For example, does your SO have a plan in place when a Bad guy jumps in the car at the mall with a knife and threatens them.
Forces them to drive out of the mall so he can rape and kill her at his leasure?
Does she have a PLAN?
ASK HER, my Wife does. Wife is well AWARE that once He gets her out of the mall parking lot, She's DEAD meat.
Wife has made up her mind that she WILL NOT be an Easy Victim. If she goes, she's taking him with her. Or making sure
he goes first.
What plans does your SO have to Protect the kids from Human predators or dangerous animals? Has she even thought about it?
In case of an Emergency, Can she Handle?
Mine can. She's from Tornado Alley in the midwest. She knows what to do in Hurricane, Tsunami, broken water main, power failure
and almost anything else you can throw at her. Home invasion? You have to get past the very overly protective dogs first. If you get
past them, going further is Not a good idea if you want to keep your good health. She'll make you hurt.....and HURT...in self defense.
I can honestly tell you, it's a relief knowing that in a crisis, she has your back. After all, it's only the 2 of you and the kids(if you have them).
Who's going to protect the kids when you're out on the job or out getting supplies in an emergency?
With things the way they are, these are Real World questions that the Both of you have to face Together. It's not only a Guy thing.
Your Family's ultimate Survival may depend on her holding down the fort until the cavalry comes(if it comes at all).
If you haven't talked to her about this, maybe it's time you did?
Word of warning, Pick the right time to talk to her and she will be receptive, otherwise don't even go there.
And you wonder Why my Wife has "nice" guns. Expensive? Yes. But, when she shoots them at the range, makes other Women
envious of her "toys". Even men come over to look. She can even hit the small hanging plates.
Nice guns are jewelry for my Wife. She has the nice guns, I just supply the "working, go to" guns.
I think this is something you Guys seriously have to look at.
Got questions? Ask. I don't claim to have the answers, I will ask the Wife and see what she thinks.
Wife really wants more women to shoot with for fun and practice. All I do is set up her targets, balloons, water bottles etc.
