Need a New Gun

[AFVet]

I have a bad itch to buy a new weapon. I've been looking at some Colt Pythons. Never been much of a wheel gun guy, but I must say those are some sharp looking guns. Bit on the pricey side given their reputation and the fact that they're no longer manufactured. One of these days I'm going to sneak out of the house on an errand and be gone a little longer than my little woman expects.

The gun bug bites hard eh! I am itching for a 1911 myself. Good luck with your quest.

[AFVet]

Yes, the gun bug has a strong hold on me at the moment. Not sure I can resist much longer.

Yeah, I'm with ya Cruizer. Been wanting a 1911 for quite a while now. Unfortunately, everytime I mention it around the house, I get that look from my wife. You know, THE LOOK!!!!!

deuce: I think for the protection of gun owners and certainly for us kahr forum members. WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THAT "LOOK" LOOKS LIKE..!!I get so many "looks" from my wife and they are all different, so I need to know which one to really pay attention to??

I did not/have not told my wife about the purchase of a PM9 last week. I had not purchased a new gun for years and would not have purchased the PM9 if it was not going to fill a specific purpose.

I too am living with the sickness right now. The wife just got a job, so month after next I'm going to resume playing. I'm in the market for a commander length 1911, a Taurus 740 slim, a CETME, SKS, and perhaps an AK, just to start. If I find a K40, or a single action 44 mag with a 5 1/2" bbl, well they may follow me home at some point too. I'm just plotting right now. My wife green lighted me to have a little slush fund that I can use for things like this, but I don't get to keep it while she was out of work. I still say she owes me one. Maybe a Ruger SR-40, as I just got a Smith SD-40. Hmmm, time will tell, we're all in this together, and I'm real sure that the bug has more than just us bitten.

I married my wife for her looks, just not the looks she gives me when I bring home a new gun.

Dude, you don't ASK your woman what you can do. You TELL her what you are doing or have already done. Scheeech.

I'll give you an example. Just this morning my wife told me that I needed to vaccuum the living room. I set her straight right then and there. I told her that when I finished dusting the hallway and doing the dishes I would vacuum but not a second before. I think she respects my assertiveness because she backed off and said "Ok, sweetie". ...... dam straight... I run this shizzz.

I really like trying to buy guns that are a lot of gun for the money. For wheel guns, I'm really fond of the Rugers. I've got 2 (had 3) GP100's that I love.

I'm not a fan of the high dollar 1911's. I've got an STI Spartan ($600-630) that looks good, works great, is a high quality gun and more accurate than my .22's. For us Kahr guys who don't mind paying a bit more and truly appreciate accuracy, the STI Spartan is a really good match-up.

LOL man, right there with you. I think a lot of us have that gun which we 'forget' to tell our wives about.

[Bawanna]

They don't get the look till you marry them and Jocko you best pay close attention to all of them very closely.

Frank you da man for taking control of your household and being the king of your castle.

You got that right....we have been together for 32 years and I still have no clue from day to day what a look is to mean, it tends to change just as I think I have it figured out.

Like the look below......I think it meant how do you like my new bracelot?
I was soooo wrong....it was showing off new hair-doo.:40:

[jocko]

Indeed and if by chance that looks is like , heh jocko, lets take it into the bedroom, at my age I sure in hell don't want to miss that and say, heh, its nascar time honey.

I really need to know, this is now a serious request..

[frank_drebin]

I have nothing to add regarding "The Look" but I may be able to add something to the "What she says vs What she means" confusion.

You want = You want
We need = I want
It's your decision = The correct decision should be obvious by now.
Do what you want = You'll pay for this later.
We need to talk = I need to complain
Sure... go ahead = I don't want you to.
I'm not upset = Of course I'm upset, you moron!
You're ... so manly = You need a shave and you sweat a lot.
You're certainly attentive tonight. = Is sex all you ever think about?
I'm not emotional! And I'm not overreacting! = I'm on my period.
Be romantic, turn out the lights. = I have flabby thighs.
This kitchen is so inconvenient = I want a new house. .I want new curtains = and carpeting, and furniture, and wallpaper.....
I need wedding shoes = the other 40 pairs are the wrong shade of white.
Hang the picture there = NO, I mean hang it there!
I heard a noise = I noticed you were almost asleep.
Do you love me? = I'm going to ask for something expensive.
How much do you love me? = I did something today you're really not going to like.
I'll be ready in a minute. = Kick off your shoes and find a good game on T.V.
Is my butt fat? = Tell me I'm beautiful.
You have to learn to communicate. = Just agree with me.
Are you listening to me!? = [Too late, you're dead.]
I'm sorry. = You'll be sorry.
Do you like this recipe? = It's easy to fix, so you'd better get used to it.
Was that the baby? = Why don't you get out of bed and walk him until he goes to sleep.
I'm not yelling! = Yes I am yelling because I think this is important.
All we're going to buy is a soap dish = It goes without saying that we're stopping at the cosmetics department, the shoe department, I need to look at a few new pocket books, and OMIGOD those pink sheets would look great in the bedroom and did you bring your checkbook?
