think about how much money you'll save shooting 9mm rather then .357sig or .45acp
Go ahead and get it , so what if all you get to eat is RAMAN soup
and crackers for the next few months.
I'd be an idiot to buy it right now... but I have the itch.
If you're like the rest of us, it won't be the first time we acted like idiots when it came to guns. Get it then plan the reason later.
Few good excuses/reasons to tell your SO for buying a gun you don't need:
1. Its an investment, you know, like your jewelry.
2. The elections are coming up in Nov and we won't be able to buy any guns after that. I'm only interested in protecting my family.
3. I don't have one like this and it is really, really special. Was thinking of (a) giving it to you or (b) leaving it to (one of the kids) as a special heirloom.
4. In two years it will double in value, then we'll be glad we have it. Can sell it and trade for food or more SO jewelry.
Or, don't say anything for a while, but then when the SO notices it, and asks, "is that a new gun?" You answer, "this 'ol thang? Shoot no, ain't new. I've had it for a good while now".
That's what my wife does to me with stuff she buys.

I don't have an SO to deal with, and the girl I'm taking out this weekend is wanting a CHL.
That being said, I need a job before I go buy expensive toys.
