I like your thinking Pat but my pockets just aren't deep enough.  Although...... I could always tell her to get off the couch and get a second job.

Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

We measure it with a micrometer, mark it with a crayon, and cut it with a chainsaw.

This is why I miss you so much during your long hiatuses from the OT, my friend.  You enrich us all with your sage advice.

I saw the post where you talked about them, but the pic had a message saying it had been removed from photobucket.  Post it again; I'd like to see it!

She loves me...

and she was tired of hearing me whine about Hensoldts.  She also said something about being tired of having to clean up the computer keyboard after me drooling over Hensoldts (we all have our little faults)...
 
My wife is very aware of all things related to shooting.  She is a great shot, loves embarrassing "macho men", is appreciative of fine optics.  What can I say, she has trained me well...

Two, actually... but neither is comparable to my wife. 
 
She wanted a Grizzly router table for Christmas, a Grizzly table saw for the Christmas before, she bought me a Grizzly drill press so I wouldn't have to depend on anyone else because a gunsmith messed up a rail mount job.  When I am on travel, she is working on building the house... on this trip, she built and installed the window frames for the windows in our breakfast area.  There is nothing I would not do for her, nothing she could ask of me that I would refuse. 
 
And she bought me a Hensoldt...
 
I'm the luckiest guy on earth.
