Headin' for some redneck fun..going to see my aunt and her "spoons"

So, We are heading down to see my favorite aunt. She is a little bit different than your typical aunt. I love spending time with her because we always laugh a lot and can really communicate.
She's 5' tall, 59, drives a Hummer and has recently developed an affinity for guns.
She has always been a shop-a-holic but lately her OCD has been directed at guns. She has always carried a .38 in her purse but things have started to get a little out of hand.
This all started when I took her with me to p/u a gun. She saw a Daniel Defense AR15 on display and started to buy it. I talked her out of it or so I thought.

Within the last nine months she has bought:

1) Daniel Defense M4 Carbine
2)FN SCAR Mk 16
3) FN F2000 Bullpup
4)Smith and Wesson .460 XVR Magnum Revolver with HUGE Leopold scope
5) Smith and Wesson .460 Bear Gun with a 2.5" bbl
6) UZI
7) Kal Tec .380
8) Barrett .50 Sniper Rifle--tracer rounds included
9)Glock .40

She has her application in to got fully automatic with a few of the guns and to get silencers.

When I was down a few months back, we had a blast. Must have went through at least 300 rounds with the AR15's and countless rounds through the UZI and pistols. With the .50cal, a few shots are all you want..it doesn't kick that bad but the concussion shakes your guts.

I will have to get some pics of all these guns and post them; maybe a video. I keep telling her that she is definitely on the "domestic threat" list. She just giggles and shrugs her shoulders.

She recently called and told me she has a new toy...can't wait to see what it is.

Lucky you.

I can now envision an ad for the Barrett .50, "lightly used by elderly lady."

Have fun.

Yep, heading down to Statesboro.
That would be a hilarious add; true but hilarious.
I can't wait; it'll be a blast.

Ahhhh, Statesboro. That explains everything. Folks are....ummmm..... 'very country' in that neck of the woods.

Where's she been getting all those goodies? Mission Essential can't be but an hour or so from there (either Mission Essential come to think of it)

(And I'll assume you are envisioning that ad far in the future since 59 is not anywhere near "elderly.")

I really like the Bullpup. This gun is amazing. Light, accurate and can be fired left or right handed due to the forward discharge of spent shells.
