Shotgun wedding? Handgun? Congrats!
No, but by the time your in your late 40's and you find someone that's perfect for you, you take action. Celebrating our 5th anniversary in 5 days and it just keeps getting better & better.
Simple, make ref to looking at ebay for a new holster and gauge her response. The ask if she has ever shot a gun, offer to show her one or take her sometime. Every body has a uncle or dad that owned guns, etc play off that and let it grow. OR Have a copy of combat handguns on your car seat or the front room table when she comes in..roll from there. These will work....
She's probably gonna wanna know if the guy has a gun.
Does she also want to know whether I have Snap-on Tools in my Garage?!
Maybe.
I guess to me it is not that important of deal. It is as I said up topic just another inanimate object in my possession.
That's exactly how I am. To me it's just like religion, kids, work schedule or whatever. All things that need to be talked about before dating.
Why isn't this information already on your eHarmony profile? Do people still meet in the real world BEFORE they meet online?
Take her to a movie with a lot of guns in it and then start calling BS on all the gun stuff that is wrong in the movie. She will figure it out from there.
How do you spend an entire evening with someone without talking about guns, knives, trucks or dogs?
Whoever I meet don't have to like everything I do. Hell my mom tolerates guns. And she's been married to my dad for 44 years.

If your gun is inanimate that might be a problem for her.

Right, wrong or indifferent...this generally comes out in the "feeling out" stage. 99% of the time it is a positive conversation (my experience anyway).

I met my wife at work a few years ago. She was in the basement and I walked in carrying my brand new (used) Remington 597. I said "Hey check out my new gun!"
She said, "Cool, will you teach me how to shoot it?"
INSTANT marriage material.
ETA: This is before we were dating, she was still with her lame-ass boyfriend who liked to lie and be a jobless bum. Easy steal.

If she is that damn ugly (inside or outside) that my "gun" is inanimate, I think it is time to Sober up...

When I go on a date the guns in the back of my dads car are a dead give away.
