[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 1915042, member: 229"] No offense dude, but if you're that high-strung about a non-serious response on the internet (on a place specifically known for smart-assedness), then you might be pushing your wife away from shooting. Patience is the key. Think about it like she's teaching you about one of her hobbies that you just absolutely find useless (not that she thinks self-defense is useless, but its really hard to convey to someone that their homestead / shelter is an unsafe place and most women don't even begin to want to think like that). Start with the basics and make the most of your time (i.e. don't get to the range and take 20 mins to set up targets and have her sitting around bored). I find that when I ask my wife to do something for me, she listens but she only has limited capacity for something she just isn't into - and I respect that (just like I expect her to do the same for me).
