    Your House, Your rules..

    Not to sound like some A-hole wife beating, knuckle dragging Neanderthal, but lay down the law to the old gentleman and your wife.

    Remind the old gentleman that he is a "GUEST" in your HOME. If he does not abide by the rules (and from what you have posted, he is EXTREMELY dangerous to himself and others) he has the choice to leave. If you use this card, you will need the backbone to back it up. Had the same problem with my oldest. He left for a short time, but he is now back following the rules and has become a real asset in the farm. Not only do I love him dearly, but I actually like him and enjoy his company.

    This comes off sounding like I am a first class ass, but it by todays standards I probably am.[peep]

    Cost are going to be a bit more 'beer budget' than 'champagne'

    240 for rifle and 440 rds of ammo
    300 for shotgun (rem 870 or mossberg) I'm going to suggest youth model light weight.
    300 for keltec pf9 (he wants a pocket pistol)
    and 125 for ccw training.

    so for less than a grand he's a shooting

    I'm looking at making sure he get a box of silver bear 203gr to beat the hell out of his shoulder on the mosin.

    3 in slugs with max dram eqv. for the lightweight 20 ga.

    and a box of the hottest 9mm with the sharpest recoil i can find (any suggestions?) I was thinking polish surplus.

    plus, he's going to need a membership to a shooting range. As i'm not wanting him shooting here.

    probably going to go down like:
    Yep, you can get a gun but you are going to need an official range for practice and sight in as MY yard doesn't need lead all over.

    no carry on property.
    no ammunition in guns while in storage
    magazines stored separately from guns
    guns locked up when not being cleaned or transported to and from shooting range.

    I reserve the right to bust out the dremel tool to adjust the firing pins and/or to make improvements to guns function.

    also the yellow sponges soaked in salt water may become necessary of the rules are violated or if i just feel like it.

    I've got it buy him a gun in a kit that he has to build, take out a peice or two. Then give it to him in the box and tell him if you want a gun you have to build it. If he does get it built tell that he must ha lost the peices so he failed the test. If not it will be hours of quiet time for you while he is trying.

    Nip it in the bud. If you feel he is not capable of safely handling/owning firearms you need to tell him so and explain why you feel that way. And if he disagrees, he is welcome to leave fast enough to keep the door from hitting him in the butt on the way out.

    You might convince him to have his eyes examined (or maybe his head) before you would even consider letting him shoot any of your guns again.

    I'm leaning towards the jumper cables and sponge thing. I guess I must be wired different than most.:D

    Uhm. Well, I suggested it in the first place. What does that make me? Oh, I remember the phrase my ex-wife used in divorce court...

    Nothing hotter than the Winchester Ranger RA9TA (Talon)- .9mm +P+ 127grn SXT

    their like $28 bucks for a box of 50... FYI this is the old Black Talon line... just renamed so the gun-grabbers leave them alone...

    So you know "9mm" no other markings is standard "9mm +p" is hotter "9mm +p+" is as hot as you can get without blowing up your gun.. that's how their rated

    PF9 would not be able to handle the +P+ ammo, that's why I went with the +P, or maybe +P+ is what you want??? Just depends if you want him to be afraid of the pistol and sell it or have a broken pistol to throw away.

    Christ if he can hit a power line what a shot! Why should you worry about that?

    with a shotgun !!

    I joke that he'd not be able to hit the broad side of a barn from the inside, but i have holes to prove otherwise.
