    It's the disparity factor with this crap! The Glock 34 I bought Saturday was about $600 after all was said and done; if my wife ever bought shoes or a purse that cost anywhere near that, I would shoot her.

    Tell her you need to have a serious talk. Once youve gotten her attention calmly tell her you are in love with another women and are getting a divorce.
    A split second before he explodes laugh and say you were kidding and that you just wanted to show there are worst things than you could have done than buy a new gun.






    I am not liable for what may happen next though

    My wife still jokes about her $1700 candle. We were in Bowie Outfitters when she came running up with a woodwick candle in a scent she "couldnt find anywhere else." She asked,"can I get this?" I held up a PS90 and asked,"can I have this?" We both got what we wanted.

    WOW! I think i peed in my pants reading half these post, this is great lol. This forum really needs a "like" button.
    I dont see it being a problem seeing as i just got a new job making right at 3-5 times more than i make now, so essentially i bought myself a "good job" gift. Ill just wait until
    that first check comes in and i hear "Thats great, we should treat ourselves" i will then proceed to treat her to dinner at Texas de Brazil, where i will tell her that i already treated myself. I figure its a fancy restaurant, she cant get all loud and such. If that doesn't work, ill tell her to pay the mortgage, or car note lol

    Fortunately I don't have this problem. I have just the opposite. My wife would be pissed if I DIDN'T tell her....she always wants to try out new guns. I think she gets more excited than I do about buying them

    My wife is oblivious to what I own....actually,she doesn't care. She has what she has and that's all she'll keep track off. She can't keep up with me and she quit doing that a long time ago. As long as the elusive "gun money" doesn't run out and I don't start tapping the general account,she won't know or care what I do. Now,if you're wife is like mine....why bother telling her at all?

    If you have to worry about her finding out you bought a new gun then that means you don't own enough guns yet. I do have a good wife and she doesn't say much when I buy a new one. Truth is she doesn't know the difference in a 'new gun' and one that I have had for years.

    The problem arrises when you have to bring in another, much larger safe because the previous safe is full. :eek3::rolleyes:;)
    Or you agree not to buy more until you've bought a second safe and then her short butt finds a chair and looks ontop of the fridge one day and finds the 6 or 7 more you've bought with reciepts and dates .... :doh:

    Not toast, but the recipient of annoyed petulance... which is just as bad.

    Actually, Tom called 9mm ".380 Long Rifle", and I had an aneurysm right there. She thought about it all week-end, apparently... :D

    .

    From two ladies! I would have been ticked to have to explain to a Scottish spitfire why I had her gun. :rofl:
