At the time, I didn't own anything that was less than .44 caliber so I loaded some .44 specials for her. They were really light loads but she fell in love w/my S&W Magnum. Then I let her shoot my .45 Commander, which was my carry gun. Next thing you know she wanted one. I was a gun dealer at the time and I had a Browning Hi-Power in stock I was saving for myself. Typically 9mm and less I categorize as "chick guns" but since it was John Moses Browning's brainchild I figured I could carry a lesser caliber. Instead I gave it to my g/f. She made me take it to my gunsmith, add an extended thumb safety and remove the magazine safety.

Soon after that her "baby" was getting scratched up in her purse. She wanted a .45 Commander like mine. So I bought her one. She carried that for a while but it was too heavy, so I gave her a .380 Government. As far as I know she still carries it. She wanted a rifle after that so I got her a beautiful AK-47 that she just loved. Even after we broke up she'd call and ask if she could come over and load some ammo so she could go shooting that weekend. I let her use my loading press whenever she wanted to.

What a great lovestory!
