[repair]

I bought a S&W 642 for my wife for christmas..... Don't worry I have some other nice things for her, don't want to be the first target. LOL

Stay back Ladies I'm all hers.

She can keep you; I like my SIGs better.

That's a cute little gun though. How's it shoot?

That is sweet. Where did you pick it up?

Don't know she hasn't opened it yet.

She shoots my GLOCKSs and AKs and anything else I have but I wanted her to have a CCW that was small and it shoots the same ammo as my Cyclops.

Bradis, I wanted to buy it at BeechGrove FireArms but they weren't going to get anymore before Christmas and Bradi had several in stock.

Nothing against Bradis, I gust wanted to spend some money with the guys at BeechGrove.

Dangerous territory, to admit out loud that you made a "straw purchase". There is that pesky question on the 4473 about whether you purchasing for someone else.

There used to be an exception for immediate family members. I'm not sure anymore.

Something to think about in the times we live in.

I stand ready to be corrected.

it's only a straw purchase if you are buying for someone you know can't purchase a firearm of their own.

100% Correct. This is a "gifted gun", not a straw purchase.

My wife likes her 642 real well.Santa brought her one several years ago. If ever your wife needs to defend herself, her home or the children, that gift may be more important than any other gift that santa will ever bring. I had the trigger of the wifes 642 lightened and it is a very smooth piece.

WOW I hadn't even thought about it could be a "straw" purchase...... Thanks for the info!

Nice gun

Yeah, I got the S&W Airweight a couple years back. Light, no hammer to snag on anything. Sweet. Small enough that you are never tempted to 'just leave it in the car this time' ya know.

Well my wife is hard to please, so far in the last month I have bought her 2 AK47s, a GLOCK 30SF and a Rossi Cyclopse .357 magnum.

Since she didn't want them I kept them, maybe this new gun will make her happy.

Now don't act like her and say that I bought those other guns for me.... I was only thinking of her, it's not my fault she didn't want them, she said something about they are too big for her to CC .

Well, I guess I feel a little bit better about myself after reading some of the other posts. I bought my wife a 637 airweight for Xmas, mainly to get my Colt banker's spl. out from under the pillow, but after playing with it for awhile before I wrapped it .........I decided I had to keep it for myself. After all she does like that old Colt.......... right? Now I Know I have just created more problems for myself. Not only will have to buy her something else to replace that old Colt that needs to be in the safe I'll have to have some one else wrap it. Oh well.

You go ahead and buy another nice gun and I'll wrap it for free, just think you will both be surprised when she opens it.

BTW I could always use a nice .22 traget pistol! I mean she....

I bought this handbag revolver for my wife's Christmas present. Won't she be surprised?

It's a handbag revolver because she will have to choose between the gun or a handbag.
