BTW, has your wife taken the course which teaches all the items you
covered?
===============================================
My wife has no desire to even hold or look at a gun, let alone shoot
one. If she did, and wanted to get a permit to own one, I'd recommend
she take the course that my son and his wife took that was far more
extensive. In anticipation of your next question, all my guns are
kept in a safe in my house and the only other person other than me who
has the combination is my son in South Carolina (in case something
should happen to us.)
My point in my original post was that I found the simple, 5 hour
course required to get a LTC in MA is marginally worthwhile,
especially for people who are not familiar with firearms or have
little or no experience with using them. I think that is a little
ironic for a state that otherwise has some very strict gun ownership
laws.
Your wife does own a gun or did you get divorced?
--------------------------------------------------
If your question was directed at me, I am not divorced. Married
happily for 43 years.
My wife has absolutely no interest in firearms. She's shot my .22LR
pistol a couple of times out at the informal range, and I showed her how
to fire our "Anti Home Invader 12 Gauge," in case PsychoSnotty breaks in
for an illegal home invasion and I'm outa town. Told her to aim lower
than usual if it is PsychoSnotty.
Our first line of defense, though, is the alarm system. It's loud enough
to wake brain dead zombies.
