Birthday Present

[Titanium Man]

So my wife buys me a new FNH FiveSeveN, we take it to shoot it, and she loves it, and now she wants one.

It is really an awesome weapon with minimal recoil. Kinda like shooting a 22 mag. It has a very good feel, and both of us were rather comfortable shooting it. Bench resting it at 25 yards, my groups were in the 4 to 5" range, and my next test will be backing up.

I didn't think I'd get one this soon, but once I start thinking about something, POOF!!, it appears.

I'm a little hesitant to CC with it, since the ballistics are out of this world, I'd be afraid to shoot someone in the next county, just protecting myself up close.

That's one awesome wife! I picked one up today at PSS, I was amazed at the weight of the pistol. Pretty sweet! Congrats!

 

[Titanium Man]

Thanks........I was pretty impressed about how much the gun didn't weigh when it was all loaded up with bullets. I know when I load my XDm9 with 20 bullets, it's a handful, then you gotta hold it up for all those shots.......it's almost a 20 minute work out to shoot it. I know it's hard to compare a 115gr bullet with a 40 gr bullet, but it's amazing to feel the weight. I know FNH firearms are expensive, but after you experience the quality of their weapons, you understand why.

Haha, I doubt my wife will ever buy me a gun as a surprise. She is already like, "You have enough guns."

I second that , but gotta say congrats to the lucky ones

All things come with a price....................you just have to take when good things come to you................it's all give and take.

Your wife and my wife need to talk. Mine needs some lessons

Congrats man, I haven't shot the FiveSeveN, but I have shot a P90. What a great round to shoot..

I won't let my wife buy me a gun, cause she'll buy me an RG or RAVEN

You know..........just the few responses interest me, and I don't want to get off topic............gee! it shoots great......there how's that mods?

I know lots of guys who's wives won't tolerate their stuff in the house, no deer heads, no competition trophies..........nothing. Heck! I divorced one wife nearly 20 years ago, for little or no reason except she was stupid, I don't know what I'd do if I had to change my life now. I'm very lucky with this wife, but to other men's wives.......I'm the devil..........and a bad influence, just because my wife tolerates my "stuff".

LOL, mine tolerates most of my stuff, even though she doesn't necessarily understand it.

It comes down to something like this: "You don't need another gun, but you're going to get one anyways so I might as well help you pick it out." lol

Yep........understand completely that one..........but I think in the back of her mind, since I rarely get rid of a gun, she thinks half of it would be hers if ever we got divorced, or money in the bank if I assumed room temperature.

I truly never imagined I'd own a FiveSeveN, but they really make it easy to own one...............what a neat handgun. It's kinda like carrying a mini-rifle with you. It's funny, when we roam the woods now, she's already put dibs on carrying it when I get a bandoleer holster to carry it.

A wife that buys you a gun is a wonderful woman!
