Now she understands the place for guns.

No but it was kinda funny in a way that day. Also very dangerous. She has never been around guns at all, and I never thought about her waving the gun around. She turned and pointed the gun right at everyone that was over reloading by the trucks. I quickly raised her arm straight up and removed the gun from her. I had to explain nicely that you don't point any gun at anyone unless you plan to kill them. She cried for a little while but she still likes shooting. I am hoping to take her to a gun range some time the first of the year.

Oh, the gun she was pointing at them was a .380 loaded, one in the chamber, and hammer pulled back.

I do not push the issue, she lets me mod the truck(slowly..very slowly), and spend time and money on my expensive guitar hobby. I do not understand it though, she grew up in the sticks as I did and her dad and brother shoot and reload their rounds, talk about it all the time, and I go huntin with them alot, and she expects me not to like guns. oh well, that rifle is a collecter's item and I am keepin it. sucks I got to get me a gun locker and keep it in the garage.

My ex tried that kinda stuff. I guess I can understand. I just told the ex to stick it where the sun doesn't shine and that was the end of it.
