your wife loves you; don't worry about it. just get her cookies for christmas and you'll see how understanding she really is. it's the thought that counts and you already shared that you wish you could do more for those that you love; i say that's good enough....

All right, my wallet has reached the stage where I need to get a hold of myself. I'm spending waaayy more on guns & ammo than on my wife and kids.

I also need to stay away from Walmart, stop going to gun shops during lunch hour, stop going to gun shows, unsubscribe from my gun magazines, get off gun shop SPAM lists, stop getting all the cool C&R flyers, stop watching all the gun shows on Outdoor Channel...

*sigh* My wife says I should save enough for money for Christmas presents at least, I and suppose she's right.

My wife and I don't celebrate Christmas, and she's been begging me to get a .44mag revolver. I guess I've got quite a different 'problem'. At least I know what to get her for our anniversary. Nothing says "I Love You" like a high power revolver.

Don't forget Black Friday.

"Honey, the local gunshop had a Black Friday deal, buy three get one gun free!"

And you save by doing them all one DROS!

Buy less / Shoot more

All I want for Christmas is a Gun Safe......

Just got my new and bigger 14 Gun Safe tonight I love it, sure it is Hunter Green but now it holds all my toys in one place. Still need to bolt down to the concrete in my secret hiding place

Well if you can afford it, and you are not cheating on your wife then you are gtg But yeah, better listen to the wifey. Start shooting more which leads to more cleaning, cleaning equals more time with guns and less at the gun shops/shows

The kids are 5 & 7 - a convenient age in terms of becoming accustomed to being around guns.

Ok, here's a list of impulse buys over the last year, related either to calguns or just browsing in the local gun shops here in SD:

"Cheap AK74 kits", got one:

Walmart : 18 boxes of ammo in one day
(...ammo bunkers are pretty full now... yeah I need to shoot more often, that's good advice!)

Can't say I'm not guilty of that one myself. Walmart is a journey for me so I make the most of it.

Tell her: "Honey, don't think of it as buying ammo, think of it as hedging our dollars against inflation by investing in precious metal.
