Kyreb Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) So I entered “geezerdom” a few days ago. I decided to celebrate by attending the big gun show at Reliant stadium followed by lunch with some of my local shooting buddies. Unknown to me, Mrs. KYreb had some surprises in store….. She asked us to stop by the house after the show so she could have lunch with us. When we got there she had organized a surprise party and the whole gang was in on it. She also gave me a nice gift certificate to a local gun shop. But it gets better………. One of my pals is an FFL who just had to bring in some pieces he had picked up from his distributor at the show. One gun in particular was a Wilson CQB. It was passed around the room and fondled by all. My wife grabbed it last. She turned to me and said “Happy Birthday” with a big grin. Wow…I was floored. Turns out, she had snuck my Wilson catalog out of the house a few months ago and took it to work. She schemed with my FFL friend who ordered exactly what she picked out. It is a 5 inch gun with a light rail and the blue gray armor coat frame. Really nice looking gun…. can’t wait to get in a range day with it. Anyway, wanted to share the story. Mrs. KYreb has been with me over 27 years now. She is a keeper for sure. Edited February 6, 2008 by Kyreb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neomet Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Congrats!! On Mrs. KYreb I mean. The gun is cool, but as I'm sure you know, the wife is better. Got one like that myself. Oh, and welcome to the "Old Geezer Club." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airedale Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Congrats. 50 isn't all that bad. The CQB is a great pistol. Enjoy, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

open17 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Oh, and welcome to the "Old Geezer Club." Correction. As of Jan 1 2008 "geezer" no longer starts at 50. Under the current rules you have to be 55 to achieve "geezer" status. "OLD GEEZER"??? I don't even want to think about it.

dajarrel Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 I've discovered that geezerdom doesn't hurt. That being said, you need to be sure and keep that gal around a while. She indeed sounds like a keeper dj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
