IMO, counseling for sure. Go to a couple different ones until you find one that seems supportive of you BOTH, and impartial. Also, does your wife's anxiety cause her to lose sleep? If so, this is definitely part of her problem. My wife couldn't sleep when our son was about two, and I was...

M1 Garand. Don't own one yet, but have a friend who is generous about loaning me his. I LOVE this rifle!

Absolutely. I don't have a machine gun, but I would surely get one.

Good idea, valkman. Next time I'll have someone take a picture of me holding a good custom knife!;)

I would never spend $300 for A knife, but I fully understand why someone would. I have seen some GORGEOUS knives at outdoor shows. As I slobber over them the salesman/woman says, "Hey, you like that one? Hold it in your hand, see how it feels".....The finely polished surface reflects the...

Lots of good stuff posted here. The motives of a person cussing me out while supposedly trying to do business with me are immediately suspect. And while I strive mightily to eschew profanities, and generally succeed, as a former sailor, trucker, and current mechanic, f-bombs and other...

Thanks, mistwolf. I'll go check that out.

No stickers or signs on the house, and I only have parking decals for the gym and the sportsman's club on the car bumper. I won't even put local sports team stickers on my car. People are just too weird these days...

We never had toy guns in our house, but my brother and I went "BANGing" around the house at each other with all manner of improvised weapons. My folks didn't mind, they just weren't gonna spring for anything more expensive than a drugstore squirt gun. I wasn't introduced to live weapons until...

Thanks, ugaarguy! Intended "run" is about 200-300 rounds/month at outdoor range for skill sharpening. Intended use is RKBA/SHTF rifle in a platform I'm familiar with (courtesy of my kindly Uncle Sam). Don't need a match grade tack driver, regular MILSPEC style and performance at urban combat...

PLEASE tell me this is Photoshopped......

I'm sorry for your losses. Every human being has something to contribute to the world. In 2007: 44,945 people died in motor vehicle accidents. 22,631 people died in falls. 17,352 people committed suicide by firearm. 12,632 homicides...

Thanks, Art! Yeah, I know it's going to get messy, but I'm hoping some consensus will emerge about the "worst of the worst"!

I found this site while Googling for info on sighting in my Saiga 7.62x39. This is the first small arms site I've come across that is not chock full of inconsiderate flaming d-bags who don't know what they're talking about. After reading the sighting-in info, I read about the 922r conversion...
