Can I keep her?

http://www.graybeardoutdoors.com/php...php?pic_id=869

I am in heaven.

She claimed my M59/66 as soon as she saw it. And apparently she's a cruffler at heart, because she grew to loathe the scope, the only non-original part on it (don't worry, I kept the original receiver cover.) Made the same claim on my Saiga X39 AK conversion. She was even brave enough to shoulder and fire my 300 RUM... and was perfectly happy with the resulting bruise due to past experience in sports (she ended up shouldering it wrong.)

And even more awesome... her favorite guns of mine were my M91/30 Mosin and most of all my Czech M98/22 Mauser, which she now claims most persistently. (I'd just plain give it to her except that she really deserves a Mitchell... yeah, I'm that nuts for her.)

My greatest regret is not bringing my 12ga pump shotgun. She's looking into serious home defense now and is more comfortable with full power guns than quite a few men out there (apart from injuries/disabilities and age, I consider recoil resilience more of a mindset).

Even beyond her quickly developed love for firearms, she's a great woman who I'm extremely lucky and honored to be in a chaste Christian relationship with. :ballons: :lucky:

Thumbs up

You're a very lucky man, BRG3! She is certainly a keeper! You'll soon need 'His&Hers' gunsafes . . .
Congratulations and best wishes for you both!

Hmm, I wonder if the links only work for Graybeardoutdoors members...

Get this guys... she even helped CLEAN the milsurps the next day! And when I was finishing off the Mosin, she was stroking the Mauser like Gollum and the Precious.

I had to look at the photos again and the thing comes to mind is BRG3 is standing behind her with an expression that says', "Can I play? Please? Please? Ah, why not?????????"

LOL

Hey, BRG3, we all need to go shooting. Luke wants to go, but he's never been. Maybe we can do a double date sometime. :-)
