Marry the right woman to begin with and all this is someone else's problem.

I had a guy back out of a deal - even after I had his money in hand - on account of his wife wouldn't let him buy another gun etc. So I sent him his money back.
Next week, I saw him back on the site asking about buying some other gun. I just decided to refer to him as 'Richard Noggin' from that point on.

I don't buy guns. However, when left alone in the dark confines of a gun safe, mine tend to procreate.

I think they may be a way out for some guys with cold feet. It's easy to blame someone else.

SkeetTX,
Thanks for the welcome. I use to visit this site daily 8 or 9 years ago, then I got into LR rifles. Time to get back into shotguns.

When I married, three decades plus ago I made one strategic correct decision, no joint accounts, ever. My wife who is a doctor keeps her money in her accounts and I do so in mine. No joint accounts, no bickering about who spent what. I pay for my bills, pay for agreed house bills and my wife does the same. We have never argued about money or who spent what on what they wanted. Kids get taken care of, house is warm and comfortable and the gun room is full. Life is good.

Once again a wife kills a gun sale. A guy calls, asks for more pictures, more details, speak to him twice and says he wants it. Then, he has to ask his wife and she says no he can not buy it.These kind of guys who have to ask their wife for permission should do that ahead of time and not waste the sellers time asking for more pictures and lots of other details. They need to get the ok from their wife before they play with guns.
I find this happens more with the cheaper guns, under $1500 and with most being under $1000.
So for the guys who need permission, they need to make sure they are allowed to have it ahead of time!

I always ask the female of the house if I should buy another gun and invariably she barks in the affirmative. It works great. Gabby is a four year old French Brit and she loves Beretta sxs's.

I saved up for three years to buy my dream target gun - a custom Perazzi. My wife was all on board. Shortly after it arrived she got a new dining room set. Custom made. Oddly enough it was just about the price of my Pgun. Wierd how that happened. She didn't have to wait three years either. However, we're both happy.
I think gloftness has the ideal partner!

An excellent argument against the idea of marriage......
Or, live by the old saying of "It's better to seek forgiveness than to ask permission."
