Heard a story about a guy who didn’t want to talk to his wife about buying another rifle.
So he went to the he gun store, picked one out and worked out a lay away deal. So every day, he’d skip lunch and save his lunch money… long time passes and he eventually pays it off. To get it in the house, he conspires with the gun shop.
Monday while he’s at work….
The gun store calls his house. Wife answers the phone. Hi, does so an so live here?
Yes.
Can I speak with him?
no he is at work.
Can you have him call us at “local” gun store? He won the Raffle and his rifle is ready to pick up.
His wife is excited her husband is a winner and take him to the gun store the next day to pick up his prize and pick out a really nice scope for his free rifle.
Told my wife the story and told her I’d never to that to her.
3 months later, my raffle ticket gets drawn and I get the Marlin 336XLR in stainless with grey laminate 22” barrel….I got the look. Told her I bought $100 in raffle tickets and put them in the jars of the rifles I was Interested in. Everytime I get a gun out, is that the one you “won”? Air quotes..
Guys, dont be an idiot like me. don’t tell your wives that story. I was an idiot the day I told her… on the plus side.. It was like a guarantee I’d win one in The near future!
Here’s the picture from the day I brought it home.
