At the club today, Mrs Hrun took another members wife on the range to have a go for the first time, using her Ruger.
Asked what it cost afterwards, I did a mental calculation, and the mods so far to make it exactly what she wanted got up to £730!!
Forget life insurance, she needs gun insurance :-)

Right so you told her/them it cost £730, but what did it actually cost?

My wife says I can spend whatever I like on shooting, as long as she gets the same value in jewellery.

So have you tried the 'I sold a gun to fund the new one' trick?

Our lass thinks its all a waste of time and money

Shes very good at clay shooting judging by the couple of times shes been but still wont join in properly.
Both kids love clay shooting so the cost this year is rocketing with a typical round of clays costing £60 for the 3 of us and sometimes we are going twice a week
I'm now buying guns that look the same to confuse my little dragonfly, hopefully she will think I only have the one! clapclap
