    My wife is fine with guns and is a decent shot (still working on that!) but she isn't really into prepping or preparedness. The prepping is more what I was asking about, especially because of the time and money involved in properly prepping.

    Owning guns is only the start. A lot of S/O's wives etc are "ok" with guns. However, do they have a ccw, carry when out, have a gun close by them in the house etc?? Not many woman are on board ccw wise. Getting them involved with security measures around the house and property, what is their part if someone tried breaking in, are they fully familiar with the gun on hand, do they have more than one as needed? I know a lot of woman who like guns but think my wife is a little over the top. Me i believe she's almost there: but have no doubt she will step up to the plate as needed.)

    My wife shoots minimally but not a lot of experience (she is not very big most of my guns her hands don't fit right.) so I bought her a little Ruger LC9 with laser for home defense or CCW (if she decides to pursue that) for Xmas.

    She was telling me that she worries about our little boys and wanted to know what I thought about making sure they will survive and not suffer if there was anything that would happen. We talked about all the options and what my plans/thoughts were. She is pretty confident in my plans in case. So it is nice having her agree and be on the same page, so I guess I am lucky in that factor.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
