Woman buys M1A - AR15.COM

Posted: 5/21/2001 3:53:37 PM EDT

I went to my local range this past Saturday and a guy and his wife take the bench right next to me. This guys takes out a New, M1A, and two mags.
Goes down range puts up his targets. After he shoots several rounds he stands up kissed his wife and says thanks for the new Gun.
She looks at me and all I can say to her is "Marry Me". We all bust out laughing, after some small talk he lets me take a few shots. I have not shot an M14 (M1A) since boot camp. Now I have to go buy another rifle.

I am married 14 years and my wife never gave me hell over my guns. When I want something new she encourages me to get it. I always say yea but it is expensive and she says you have a hobby and you don't do much so enjoy that. She is right I don't do much just the gun thing. So I wind up getting it and am hapyy she was a part of it.

I have to say I couldn't live with a woman if she didn't like guns. I would rather be alone!

I am a lucky man to have such a great wife!!!

The last gun my fiancee bought me was a guide gun. I think she digs the reaction on the range when I shoot the 'ole cannon more than I do.

I love her.

I'm waiting for the day my rifle buys me a wife!

I'll take the deluxe model, meaning ofcourse light weight yet with a high capacity brazierre.

Mine never objects, only asks can the budget afford it. She was in on my sig-229, and my FN. If you have a good woman that never objects, you have a keeper.
