I just got an earful from my wife!
« on: September 12, 2013, 07:20:23 AM »
I was just offered a Barrett 98B which I couldn't turn down. Spoke with my wife and she was slightly pissed. She told me I was selfish cause what about her Glocks that she wanted. What about her AR15 that I didn't finish yet or the Rem 700? In the end she said it was fine but I have to get back on track and not get distracted. Women I tell you.  ::)
Google it cause every question is a dumb question.

Rule #1 Satisfy Wife (or GF) First.

Problem: They are never Satisfied.

So, It's Better to Beg for Forgiveness than to Ask for Permission (Just go buy it! Tell her later)

DUCK FAT!!!  Just buy it anyway without letting her know.  They only get mad once.  Great deals don't come around often, do what needs to be done.

I think we've all been here. I bought my AR without telling my GF of 4 years...(we are practically married at this point minus the paper) I thought about how to tell her for a few days but I had a Pmag sitting on my desk which I thought she would have no idea what it was anyway... so one night she's using my computer and asks "honey?, is this a magazine? What does this go to?"

... Umm... your new ar15!! didn't I tell you?!  ;D

In time it will be.  Then it will step up to the jewelry.  When that happens time to buy a larger safe...

One might ask, what is one's sanity worth?

IMO, best not to bite that bullet called marriage.

Keep her!  Get on that AR-15 build and take her out to look for her Glock!

Or shoes.  Whatever.

Keep that one happy.
I do believe that the radical and crazy notion that the Founders meant what they said, is gradually soaking through the judicial system.

My wife gave me a hard time today.  I want to order (200) 338 lapua brass from Midwayusa. When I told her the price of around $500. She states, "What about my PV". You just spent $1000 for the  Dillon 650. Its a Big no lapua brass til the PV is install. Got to be nice, Xmas is near. Plus I book a Sheraton room for this weekend getaway.  Trying to get brownie point.

I have lived my entire life by these words!
Pretend to listen to what they're saying, nod my head in agreement, then go and do what ever I want to do and worry about the consequences later.
So far it has worked for me.
Granted, I am no longer married.
I've been single since 1967.
Could there be a correlation?

Compromise is the key, she buys something  then you buy something.  She goes shopping, then you go shooting at the range. One cooks, the other cleans up, etc...basic common sense rules.
