SO, my question is, have any of you had a similar experience with a significant other not liking your primal need to shoot things?
Nope. I dump them if they don't like it.
Any suggestions to help a brother out?
Dump her.

Feel it needs to be said before rendering advice:
Mr Weebles: Nope. I dump them if they don't like it.

Keep in mind shooting is an activity that she may not enjoy. As long as she isn't against gun ownership, I don't think you have much to worry about.
She should be comfortable with how to use a gun, but she may have no interest in shooting for fun.
She only had one rule when we got married - I could spend whatever I wanted on guns, but no single gun can be worth more than he most expensive piece of jewelry.

.... Use female terms like "I feel that it something special we could share together". Try to keep a straight face while doing it for extra points.
Hi all, recent green member and young person who likes to exercise the good ol' second amendment. I have a bit of a random question here. My girlfriend is a little, shall we say, gun-shy. She doesn't have anything against me having one (except that it takes away from her buy-me-stuff-budget ). At this point, I've only been able to get her to even hold a pistol once, and she was none too happy about it. I would like for her to be comfortable around guns, and maybe in the future to own and enjoy one (or three) of her own.
SO, my question is, have any of you had a similar experience with a significant other not liking your primal need to shoot things? Any suggestions to help a brother out? I know I'm probably in for the long haul here, and I'm not expecting a night-and-day difference, but at this point I think anything will help out.
Thanks!
LMAO! I can't stop laughing when I read posts like this. Very entertaining.

The wife said she'd want to go to the range again some time. Haven't done that in a while.... spend some time with her and share my favorite hobby. Playing the relationship card worked for me. I didnt make it about her learning to shoot, but about us having fun together ...
Let her know about Women on Target events and ask if she would like to go to one. ...
... I'd like to get her to one of the GOAL women's events or something of the sort.
... get her into a Woman On Target event. You will not be sorry
