    The NRA is not perfect but when you compare them to Pelosi, Schumer or any name on the 2020 Dem president list, they really begin to shine.

    If my wife knows how many guns I have I'm in deep trouble because I'm not married. lol

    Stumpkiller i feel for you folks in northern NY. My wife nephew lives in New York and from what I have seen and how they try to control you it’s bad. The south easterner part your state is sucking the blood from you all. When we went to visit him when he was living in Malone I was amazed at the homes and farms. Because if you fix your place up they will tax the heck out of you and the farmers also get hit..
    Soil and water is another thing with them with on their laws. No field tiling because it will destroy the land and wild life.
    Anyway where I live most of the county is building up with new homes for the people that work in or around Cincinnati, so to find a place to hunt is getting hard to find.

    New York continues to be one of the leading states in the country where people are moving out of.
    According to United Van Lines, a St. Louis, Missouri-based moving company, New York ranked as the third most moved-out-of state in 2017, ahead of only Illinois and New Jersey. Despite the ranking, it is actually a continued improvement from previous recent years. New York ranked second in 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012, but remains in the top three states people are fleeing for the seventh year in a row.
    During 2017, 61 percent of moves to and from the state were outbound, according to data gathered in the company's 41st Annual Movers Study. There are various reasons why people left.


    • 46 percent of people left for job-related reasons
    • 18 percent of people left for lifestyle reasons
    • 19 percent of people left for family reasons
    • 5 percent of people left for health reasons
    • 29 percent of people left for retirement reasons

    The largest age population of those who left were those aged 55 to 64. Those 65 or older ranked a close second, with those aged 18 to 34 not far behind. The largest income group of those who moved out made an annual $150,000 or more.

    I'm surprised NY, NJ IL and CA haven't passed legislation to tax anyone moving out of the state based on their net worth yet.

    I bet they're writing up that legislation as we type!

    My fairly recent EX (2013) knew how many I had but I didn't even try to keep it a secret. Some of them were mine before we married, some were inherited and some purchased while we were married. She had her own pistol and her Dad's Winchester 30-30. She didn't even bring them up during the not-so-nice divorce but we never kept financial secrets.

    I don’t think my wife cares how many guns I have as long as I’m not buying them on a credit card. She knows boys toys are expensive (it ain’t fair!). I try and make sure she gets the things she wants too.

    She knows approximately how many. It is irrelevant to her, as it does not significantly negatively impact our lives or finances.

    nope, they all look the same to her. That said, I did bring home a blue laminated airgun and she picked right up on that one.

    Probably. I'm not really sure. I work on a lot of guns for friends and family. So at any given time I may have a few extra that are not mine and she has never asked about any of them.

    Yup she shakes her head now and then. Especially when it comes to 50 cals and suppressors lol. Every gun and suppressor is covered under insurance riders so she know exactly what they’re worth to. I picked a good one I guess!!

    Mine supports the pairs of shoes to guns ratio. I got cute one time and counted individual guns as shoes. 15 pairs of shoes equals 30 guns. She was delighted to restore balance to the ratio.
