Just wondering if anyone bought their significant other a firearm for Valentine's day? My wife is a jewelry nut, so if I bought her a gun she would say I bought it for myself. Damn, she's smart. :p
 
For Valentines day my wife got bling, bang & boom. She scored a diamond ring, a Marlin 17hmr and a 12" sub for her Mustang. She is out of town for work all this week, so she'll have to wait to play with them. Last night I took advantage of her absence and finished putting together an ar-15 she is getting next month for her birthday. Gotta keep her happy....or she may discover what a putz I am.:D
 
Swmbo says I can buy that...

Mosin Nagant 91/38 I have been looking at. She also said I should get a hicap AK, mine is a pc 10 rounder............Things go well when you buy your sweetie a BIG box of CHOCOLATE.........chris3:D
 
About 30 years ago my first wife bought me a .38 snubbie for Valentine's Day. She hid it in a big box of chocolates.
 
Are you kidding....that would be one less i could afford to buy for me.:D Plus, we have been together for almost 15yrs now. I think not stargling them in all this time is enough of a gift.:D
 
I was going to buy myself a Glock 17 for Valentine's Day and tell her it was for her, but I didn't.
 
Not prezackly...

But I did buy her a Sig P232 a couple weeks ago, which I parlayed into part of the Valentine's festivities.
 
I bought my girlfriend of 5 years her first gun of her own for Valentines day. A S&W LadySmith 60! This is a nice looking gun. I havent given it to her yet. I bought myself a XD45 but she wont know that untill after I give her hers BUT I think all fo that is gonna be over shadowed byt the fact that Im proposing to her tonite!:eek: I didnt think the ring would be in yet for V-Day so I picked her up the Ladysmith(which she wanted anyway) so she gets both! Wish me luck tonite! I know she is gonna say yes but Im still really nervous! lol
 
Not on this budget
Sure would have liked to do something like a Lady Smith
Oh well its the thought that counts :uhoh:
 
I did last year

I bought her a pistol.

Not Valentine's, but for our first anniversary, I got my wife a S&W 629 and she got me a S&W 617. This year, I told her we need to give Colts.
 
A lot of you don't know how lucky you are. Mine despises guns. Or anything hunting related too. She ignores most of my intrests. Sorta, kinda makes me feel like just a sperm donor:eek: Funny, it wasn't always this way:confused:
 
Having been married to one like that Ambush, I assure you that I DO know how lucky I am. I know how you feel.

Or as my wife said DW, "Nothing says 'I trust you' like giving your wife/husband a handgun. :D

Yes, it is the thought...maybe take a loved one to the range and let them shoot one of your prize possessions. Not the same as buying them their own but a very nice gesture. :)

Here is a poem to go with the Lady Smith.

In this box I give you life -
Your own to keep and live.
In this box I give you death -
Death to those who would slay you -
Death to hold in your gentle hand.
In this box, power lies -
The power to keep your life for your own,
To stay with me, not die and leave.
To live with me in our sweet love,
To love with me in this sweet life,
Not flee with me to death,
Or lose what makes life sweet.
To earn your keep and spend it.
To rest here in your home.
To know the value of your life,
And worship every breath,
Not kneel and pray to death.
The choice to live weighs more by far
Than this small box I give -
A choice that's Your's to make, my Love.
You're wise enough to make it, for
Gentleness tempers your wrath.
I love you and I give this tool,
And know you'll choose to live.

My Brother wrote this several years when he gave my SIL a Colt 380 for Valentine's Day.
 
I bought my wife a real clean 4" S&W 13-1
357 mag.My wife liked my 4" 686-3 but it's
just a little heavy for her.
 
I took my wife to a gunshow a little over a week back. She picked a Heritage Arms 22lr/mag revolver as her Valentine's present. I chose a used Bushmaster Car15 for myself.

It's all about give and take.:D
 
I guess you could say it's for Valentines'...

She's getting me a Sun Devil California Legal lower. She was supposed to pick it up in the last few days, but Gunrunners in Duarte, California gave hers away to a higher bidder, apparently. :fire:
