The perfect Wife

Last year at this time we had a similar post that we talked about the neat things we got for Christmas. I know this post comes a little early but the timing felt right today. My wife earlier this year asked me if I planned to buy anything special "for myself" for the season. I replied that there were a couple of guns I really wanted but I was flat out of room in the safe and didn't feel like selling anything just to make room. Imagine my surprise when a freight truck showed up today with a new safe. That is the definition of a "Perfect Wife"


MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

Merry Christmas Len and may you fill that new safe with guns in 2017.  And a Merry Christmas to all the BE community.

My wife gave me a bunch of new Starline brass for Christmas.

Bourbon to help drown my shooting sorrows.

Jim Bean Devils Cut

5000 rounds Magnus bullets....

NG scope. My wife hasn't seen it yet but I have. I usually surprise her with what I get for Christmas.

Geez Len....lol

I don't think she knows it yet, but she bought me a new barrel for my Wadcutter!   We always tell each other that we don't need any gifts for each other and usually go see a play together instead - this year it was Fun House last Saturday.   

We let each other indulge in our hobbies and that is plenty.  As a friend said, "A happy wife is a happy life!"

Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah.   Congrats on the new safe Len - and the challenge to quickly  needing a 3rd one.

My wife talked me into taking her to see the Nutcracker this year. She told me it was professional wrestling.

Hey Len, what's you secret? I mention getting a bigger safe and well, if looks could kill...............

I asked my wife, what do you think?
She replied, she could keep a lot of jewelry in there.

Gun parts! Or tools.. I don't know which. Hopefully both! I don't know yet. But I saw the MidwayUSA package!

Wife got me a new 22 and 32

Yep one of my safes is nothing but the wife's silver and jewelry.

Hand size.

I am "getting" a red dot rail for one of my High Standard barrels .  As far as I know that's it.

I learned that, when asked, just say "Nothing".

It beats hearing the "Do you think we're made of money?" speech.

Wow, that's cool!  When I turned forty I asked my wife for two 20s to replace her and she said I wasn't wired for 220.

A Springfield XDM 9mm 5.25, advertised as used but unfired; 1000 rds of 22lr; Pistol Shooters Treasury; Yuryev's book. Pretty good Christmas.

2,000 45acp Starline brass
Four Roses Small Batch - Never got to taste the one she got me last year
Woodford Reserve 1838 Style White Corn

My wife got me a timer!!!!! 

^^ I remember those.  I didn't know they still made them.

Cool, looks vintage

Those timers were around in the 50's and 60's, but your's looks new. Did your wife find a source for new ones.
