All joking aside, I am in the very fortunate position of having a very understanding wife regarding firearms, her father was an RFD in the late 60's and on through the 1970's, so she was brought up with all sorts of firearms about the house when she was a kid.

She inherited her fathers v bull trigger finger too, having a 99 average at .22 prone shooting before she gave it up a few years back...way better than my 97 average..stupid bloody sport anyway!

As long as what I buy doesn't go down in value (and hopefully rises) she is very cool about it and has come to appreciate my Enfield's, L1A1's and the Springfield.


As Simon rightly say's, That is the way to "sell" the idea of a new rifle, as an investment, if its a classic collectable Milsurp, then that's a fact, they are going up in value all the time..
