Reminds me of a sign behind the gun counter at Barney's in Carencro. The sign says, "Your wife called. She said you can buy anything you want."
I'm lucky to not have this problem. My girl gives zero f**** what I do or how I spend my money. But I know quite a few poor bastards who do have to deal with stuff like this all the time! Some say I'm lucky.
My first wife (notice the first) had a problem with buying guns.
The second wife knew up front if we have the money, guns are being bought. She’s a history buff and encourages (maybe enables) my collecting behavior. To be fair the best guns I bought or traded for recently were a awesome condition K31, Arisaka type 38 carbine, and several Arisaka type 99’s.
My safe is overfilled and she wants to get another one or build a room.
My first wife sucked.
So if you’re really into guns replace your wife.
If you’re in a state that doesn’t condone guns, move.
Please don’t follow my advice I’m not a role model.

The only thing that bothers me about my collection is what will happen to it when I’m gone. I want my children to have the heirlooms which is why I pass them down when I feel like they’re stable enough and not prone to sell them off.
The rest I’m sure the wife will sell off, but it breaks my heart that she’ll prolly sell them for what she thinks I paid for them... just breaks my heart I tell ya.
