Shitpost / Memes Convincing the boss

I know there’s a lot of guys on here who say “Buy once/cry once or who buy it and sneak it into the safe but let she realistic…

How do you convince the wife, between mortgage, bills, renovations, etc. etc. to not lose her absolute mind when you want to drop $1000+ on a new firearm?

I’m trying to have a happy marriage here folks. Give me your tips/strategies

Depends on your relationship. Throughout our entire 12 years together I've made much more money and contributed more to the household (cooking, cleaning etc) so I basically have free reign to do what I want. If she has a problem with it it's no concern to me, she'd be fucked without me.

Buying new guns for no reason other than "it's fun" should be absolute last priority. You can justify one or two guns by claiming "self defence" or "hunting" or "if shit hits the fan", but that excuse stops working after a couple of guns. Make sure you're financially well off before you go spending more money on more guns and ammo.
