It turns out that my wife was even more against the idea then I thought. It was an absolute "no."
The deal I'm working out now, is to buy one and keep it at at a friends house. I would only be allowed to move it to our house in the case that civil unrest appears to be on the horizon.
You need to break the ice by bringing your wife to the shooting range. I've never met a person who didn't enjoy squeezing off a few rounds.
I brought my wife to the range a few years ago and she ended up going through 3 boxes of .45. She has no more of a problem with me spending money on a gun than on a TV or computer. She actually enjoyed holding the shotgun as I taught her how to handle and load/unload it. Next item on my list is actually a 1911 .45 for her.
