I tried the "great investment" line - then I was reminded that diamonds and gold jewelry are also a good investment and that she could particiapte in that investment better!
I am wondering if I could get away with hanging a carbine from around my neck with a gold chain - then I could tell her that I was investing in a new line of men's jewelry!

What worked for me.
Typing left handed, so will be short. When I wanted to get my CMP Inland, i told my wife, who knows i already have a carbine, i want one like my dad carried. I also told her since i was buying it from the government, it would have more history and be a good one. i am putting it in a shadow box with some of his iwo stuff and his folded flag from the VA. Now i have to figure out an excuse to get a Saginaw next. After all, he also did tell me he had an old Saginaw for a short while.

Perhaps a shadow box with rifle for each island or campaign he went on. Or for each month of combat. ?

Looky here! Finally able to do this as my son-in-law made and gifted me this great rack for Christmas! Now I've gotten my co-worker to put these pics on, and at last am able to show them to you. Hope you enjoy.

That is a very nice carbine rack Grits. That has given me an idea on how to make mine. Thanks for sharing.

Grits, do you have any plans or drawings for that rack that you can share? That looks great and I would love to make that as a project....
Of course, then I would feel obligated to fill all the slots up with carbines!!!
