Am I being unreasonable here?

I believe your husband should have left Roxi alone. You knew where you left it in case of emergency. Once Roxi was moved, you were at an extreme disadvantage. Your hubby has the duty to ask first.

Sad... you two oughta kiss & make up or split up.

Many good points were made. Thank you for all of the replies. I have truly come to appreciate the value of asking for a different view point and actually shutting my mouth and opening my eyes enough to see it.

Now I want to address the last part of what I quoted here.... Yes I agree with you. I tried. I was told "No. I don't accept that." My response was "what are you going to do? chain me to the house so I can't leave you?" I did not get an answer. Well, I did, but nothing verbal and nothing I am going to post about on a public forum.

Your marriage is and should be more important than all of this gun stuff. You were with your family. Say your piece and make peace with your husband. I'm being direct here. You can hate me if you would like, but most of the time - in a marriage - you can make sure that you have made your point and try to be finished making your point. Let it go.

Just be sure it doesn't have an accidental discharge when she touches it

I'll agree with him.

Honestly, I'll get pissed off about something every day. Ask my wife. It does not change the way that I feel about her, (she's buried in the basement). BAD joke.

But really - You have to know where you stand at the end of the day. That is what being committed is all about. Some days it's not fun, but you have to get over sh1t. It can only make you a better rounded person, (with the exception of baeing in a physically abusive, and/or unfaithful marriage).

As Forrest Gump would say; And that's all that I have to say about that.

The best advice I can offer is what I think I would do if put in a similar situation.

I probably would bypass getting mad at my significant other because maybe they simply did not know my ground rules of not touching my firearm before it happened. I don’t know what your situation was as far as prior knowledge goes.

The way I would solve it is to go get some sort of cable lock that I can use to secure the firearm to the bed frame, or wherever I need to secure it. It might be a handy thing to have in the car just for those instances where you would like to lock your firearm up while you are forced to be away from it for whatever reason.

Thanks. More wonderful points to note. (seriously I am impressed knowing these replies are coming from men. I know that sounds sexist and I apologize. I am being reminded just how bad it is to have such assumptions about the opposite sex....)

[Scud]

Glad to hear that. I was not trying to be a hard ass, but I can speak from experience. I have been married for a while. It has it's moments.

Rule #1...Don't sweat the small stuff

Rule #2... Everything is small stuff.

This will be one of those "vacation memories" you'll look back and laugh about one day.

Rule #3... next time, take Roxi in the shower. She can take it.=)
