We have been together a little over 1 1/2 years, everything has gone great so far. Ive taken her shooting a few times, she enjoyed it. I think every man in hers and mine's family owns guns, so shes not new to them. However, I recently bought a .357 Magnum to keep for home defense, and recently, she has seemed upset about it. She asked me the other day "Why would you need more than one gun?" I tried explaining to her, but she didnt seem to want to listen. Now, shes wanting me to sell my 9mm, which I keep in the car.
She didnt have a problem with me having it, until my anti-gun mom found out about it. She flipped out, saying that "a criminal will shoot you if you have a gun, but without one he wont" "You know martial arts, you dont need a gun", typical anti BS. Now it seems, Tiffany (my fiancee) seems scared or something. What can I do to solve all this? I love her, but I also enjoy shooting and collecting firearms. Its not like I have them laying around, I keep the 9mm in my center console, and the .357 by my bed, unloaded.
