My boyfriend has a gun. I don’t feel threatened by him in anyway. Should I worry about it? (Page 2)

[D_Bone_Steak]

I have a P-22, Glock 9mm, AR-15, and a shotgun... and my wife has nothing to worry about.

[MikeInHawaii]

Is she trained on them, too?

[D_Bone_Steak]

@MikeInHawaii We are both military (I'm now ex-military and she's about to retire), but I'll have to admit, she scares me. I had to buy those orange dummy rounds and make her practice loading, dry fire routines, and basic safety. The little shit still confuses her so I really need to take her to a range... for instance, my Walther P-22 loads itself just by pulling the trigger, while the Glock has to have the slide pulled back to load that first round. At this point, I think I'd only trust her with the shot gun or the Walther because of the same issue and her lack of physical strength to load that first round.

I have a gun, so does hubby. I hope we never need use it in defense bit I think of it like a condom. I'd rather have it and not need it than to need it and not have it!

[Panzer21]

No, but if anyone tries to enter the house with malicious intent, they should probably be worried.

Ask him to teach you how to use it, i bet it will be fun.

[Surely]

Not as long as he is the level headed, mentally stable, even tempered, good guy with a gun that you love! He might save both of you someday with his gun.
More confrontations are supposed to be settled without a shot being fired.

[Markm3212]

yes i would worry. if a gun is pulled and the other person has one, you'll be in a gun fight

[Faith18letsgo]

Not if it’s in a gun safe and he’s trained to use it. But if it isn’t then yeah I’d be concerned.

[Anonymous]

Why? He has a car too. Should you feel threatened by THAT?

My girlfriend has a car AND a pretty impressive collection of kitchen knives. Should I worry about that?

[D_Bone_Steak]

I am so going to start using this in future arguments about guns.

[Opinion Owner]

@D_Bone_Steak Yeah--the problem here is murderous intent.

[DarkWinterNights]

Ask him to take you shooting at the range. Take a safety course and get a permit, it’s very empowering and it might just save your life someday.

[Fuentes]

Lol if you came to me and told me their was an issue with the fact I have a gun in my home, you would get dumped quick. Infact I have two different weapons in my house.

[DarkWinterNights]

You Gotta Pump Those Numbers Up, Those Are Rookie Numbers.

[Fuentes]

@DarkWinterNights lol I can't see what I need anymore for hahaha

[mobiusforniner]

I have a couple of guns. My wife only cares about the one in my pants

[exitseven]

If he uses good safety techniques and does not wave it around there is nothing to worry about,

[humanearth]

Why should you be. That gun might take down a mass shooter

[smilelots]

yes you should , guns and people dont mix well. ask him what is the gun for. and if your ok with his answer.

[bayoubob]

@smilelots I think we know who you voted for.

[Sparkie460]

As long as he doesn't have any anger issues and he carries it to protect you both, you have nothing to worry about.

[TallAnon]

Depends on your local laws. The country where I am from requires it to be stored in a safe, separately from the ammo, with a permit. If you suspect he's breaking any laws, have a chat about it.

[OddBeMe]

Is he masturbating over it? Taking selfies with it? Or is there a gun safe and he's responsible?

Also, is he abusive? Gun owning domestic abusers dont end well for the ladies.

[BillyBalls]

Is he a legal gun owner?

Has he been trained on how to use guns?

If so, then you have nothing to worry about.

If he is a gangbanger who owns a gun illegally then yes?

[bayoubob]

Why should you? Go to the range. Enjoy it. Get your concealed carry. Live the life.

[AssholeNumberOne]

Bro, why are you asking if you trust him?

Maybe you don't fully trust him for some reason?

[FilmGuy93]

I don't understand why you would worry about it if you aren't feeling threatened.
