My wife found out about one of my gun purchases about 3 months after the fact. She was not happy and I was in the doghouse for awhile.

My wife does not get on to me about such; as being a pedigreed hill billy, I just keep a separate stash built up from trading and selling. Call it my rat hole stash. Last thing I bought with common family money was an Enfield No 1, Mark III* I bought about 10 years ago.

It’s always easier to get forgiveness, than permission!
Sneaking in guns is easier than sneaking in gun safes.
The sooner I fall behind...the more time I have to catch up with
might have to do it again today. Ive got a appointment at the VA 90 miles from here and have to go by 3 gunshops driving home.
Around here its the motorcycles that are hardest to "camouflage". I am not buying any more firearms as I am satisfied with what I have now. In fact I'm selling the ones off that never get used.
Death to every foe and traitor and hurrah, my boys, for freedom !
Man just think if you had as many guns as the wife has shoes and purses...The floor would need reinforcement !
Just make sure to treat her to something extra when you treat yourself to extras.
nothing cool at the gun shops this time so i wont go to hell.
If your wife can keep track of your guns - YOU NEED MORE. She does not even ask if I NEEDED a new one when I bring one home. I CANNOT change her hunting rifles without consulting her though and she DOES NOT want another rifle for a GIFT! No new scopes, same loads that have worked for years, or changes unless approved, just so she has 'fresh' ammo each hunting season.
had to laugh yesterday. I got a new leupold scope in the mail for the 7mag. Threw it on top of the safe in the living room. She sat down to watch tv and asked me if i got a new scope. I think the only reason she noticed is that were emptying the house because were tearing it down and building new. Used to be a ton of crap on top the safe i put out in the barn so it was sitting there alone. i told here it was a late valentines present i forgot to give her. She got some electronic do dad watch in the mail yesterday too. Now talk about a waste of money! Youd have to hit a deer with it very hard to put back straps in the freezer!!!!!!!!!!
Sneaking around and lieing just isn't me, to each his own.
