You never know.
I was almost murdered by my first wife, who would've killed me with my own damn Colt 45. My trusty M1991A1, re-issue/minor re-engineering of the 1911 aka "government model" - bought brand new in 1991. She's a good shot, too. Her plan was to take me out, then do herself. I was lucky; I was warned ahead of time. Got rid of her (took her back to her parents), still have the Colt. Edit - this not necessarily being "gmt400 encounter related" - it was almost immediately after I divorced her that I bought my first gmt400
the white '92 ECLB C1500 that I later did the Caddy clip on.

Yep. My last ex wife took out a 2.5 million dollar life insurance policy on me.
At the time it seemed like a reasonable thing to do because I was an Ironworker.
But everytime I went up on the roof to replace some bad shingles or chimney flashing she would move one leg of the ladder off of the concrete and into the dirt.
She would go into my gunsafe and load a round in every firearm and then claim that I had done it because I was "forgetfull"
That is the very definition of "gaslighting"
When I changed the combination on the safe she lost her friggen mind and accused me of cheating because she couldnt screw around with my firearms.
Im not sure who she thought I had locked up in the gun safe.
So she decided to start buying her own guns and leave them around the house as some kind of a threat.
She bought a brand new 357 magnum and wrapped it in Colorado state divorce papers and then cut my relatives heads out of my old picturtes and superglued them and pictures of our cats to the wrapped up revolver and coated it with glitter.
She came into my office at a multi million dollar construction company with a brand new Kimber .45 and field stripped and put it back toghether in front of me, our other project manager, my entire engineering team and our office manager.
And then she left.
The ****** up part of this is that everybody knew that I carried.
A pretty big part of my job is to get us paid.
Back in the day it was not unusual at all to have to drive accross the country and pick up a check for a couple of million bucks in order to make payroll.
When some out of state **** thinks he can rip you off?
Gas up the truck get some beef jerkey and some cheetos and invite a couple of "staff members" to go on a roadtrip.
We will drive right on over and help you find your wallet.
Right after 9/11 that was really normal for me.
Nobody could fly and what most people dont realize is that almost all of the construction finance and bonding and banking industry ******* vanished when the towers came down.
We went back to actual paper and contracts for a few months.
That was my job and everybody knew it.
Right up untill the ex did her little stundt and then the peeing of diapers started.
Basically, the armed guy is married to a ******* loon who just showed up at the office with a gun.
And they were right about her in every way it just took me awhile to figure it out.
Because we had a 4 thousand foot house and new cars and a boat and piss loads of money.
And then she took my cat in and had him de-clawed in order to "teach me a lesson"
Yes, that is an actual quote from her.
There were many many many reasons for me to get the **** away from her.
But I had stood up before my friends and family and taken an oath.
For better or worse, richer or poorer, ******* foresaking all others
Do you hereby swear that you will screw your future over by marrying this nut bag.
Yep.
She is a serial pet adopter and serial pet killer.
She volunteers at various pet rescue places and adopts them and then loads them up on meds for diseases they dont have and posts on social media when they die and goes and adopts some more.
I have mentioned this many times but it is worth saying again.
If your cat doesnt like them, and your dog doesnt like them?
Run right the **** away from them.
That very moment. When she showed me that she had used that little innocent cat as a pawn in her little game changed everything.
I looked her and I puked.
6 years of bile spewed out of me.
She was just so disgusting and gross and so feeble that she would mutilate a little cat in order to prove to me that she was a piece of ****.
I have a few ex wives and ex girlfriends.
We are on facebook fer ***** sake
But that ***** is just mean and evil.
My cat, Cody? When I left Denver I couldnt take him with me so my friends Lisa and Tim took him in and even though he peed all over Tims movie collection on the first day.
He lived to be 22 years old and they called him "cody toes"
because he didnt have any toes.
