This never really came up when my wife and I started dating, I didn't have a gun at the time and although I was pro-gun, she wasn't. It gradually started coming up when we first got married and she was when we have kids we get rid of them and I was 
and she was all I don't want the kids getting them. I told her my dad had 3 guns when I was a kid and we knew better then to look for them or even handle them if he wasn't home.
Not to bring religion into it but she came from a strict baptist upbringing where I grew up catholic. She knew that I knew how to handle a gun since I spent 6+ years in the military. What finally warmed her up to it was the friends we routinely hang out with, I didn't know they had several guns each and that their wives had shot them, so when she found out they knew how to handle them she became intrigued by it. They invited us to a range in January and it was her first experience shooting.
She was one of those people that feared guns because she knew nothing about them. Basically one of them people that are afraid to even TOUCH a gun. We've since gone to the range several times and I finally bought my handgun. Now she supports it and wants to get one as well and eventually we plan on both getting CHLs. She knows there'll be several more guns in the house before long.

And she can shoot the .40 pretty good till her arm gets tired.
