So, what did you do this weekend? Oh, nothing. I just went to a gun show and bought my very first gun!
I didn't think I needed a gun. We already have one at home. But, since we've been expecting, Daniel has been commenting about how he wants to get me a gun that I am comfortable with. His gun has a "thingy" that you have to pull back before you shoot and it takes a little bit of muscle to do it. Plus, I have never shot it before, but he says that it kicks pretty hard.
So, when Daniel saw that there was a gun show coming to Lakeland, there was no question - we were going. Before we went, Daniel gave me some pointers like "If you pick a gun up off the table, don't point it at anyone" and "Don't pull the trigger". Isn't he going to be a good daddy? ;-)
There were lots of tables with guns & accessories to look at. I wanted every gun I saw that was pink. But, alas, we decided on a a regular old grey one (a Smith & Wesson BodyGuard .38). Even though it's not pink, it has a laser on it! Beware home intruders! And it is very well made. To be honest, I was more excited than I thought I would be to be purchasing my very own gun. We have to wait 3 days before picking the gun up (because we don't have a concealed weapons permit), so we'll be picking it up tomorrow. I will be sure to post a picture. ;-)
