You are not alone if you have a gun lover in the family. About a third of Americans own a gun and love it. What makes things challenging for you is figuring out what to give this person. The following are a few gift ideas your gun lover might love.
Moldable Ear Plugs
One thing a gun lover may like is these earplugs. Most earplugs are uncomfortable to wear. They don’t sit well in the ear and sometimes fall off. That’s not something you want, especially when you’re at the shooting range. Every time the gun lover shoots, those around can feel an explosion in their ears. Low-quality earplugs may cause some damage to the hearing overtime, which may be prevented with the right protection. High-quality plugs are vital and will mold to your family member’s ears. This ensures they’ll stick and that they’re quite comfortable. These can be remolded if needed, so your loved one can do it a few times if he or she doesn’t get it quite right the first time.
Gun Training
Being around a gun lover means you know how much it costs to train with that weapon. Going to the gun range is fun, but it’s costly, especially if you want to get better as a shooter. The good thing is that you can help your loved one get better without emptying the bank account with dry fire training. This kind of training doesn’t require live ammo, nor does it require trips to the gun range. In fact, this kind of training can be done at home. By the time it’s done, your loved one will learn skills that’ll give them the upper hand in a violent situation.
Weapon Safe
Most gun lovers are responsible owners. Most likely your loved one has a safe for guns that is kept in a special place. This helps keep guns out of the wrong hands, but the safe probably needs a bit of an upgrade. Use this as an opportunity to upgrade the safe, especially with so many great tech-based options. The coolest and most effective gun safes are the ones that use fingerprints to grant access to the gun. That’s much safer than typical ones. These safes usually come with several options, so if your loved one doesn’t like that type of lock, he or she could use a digital key to access the gun instead.
Gun Powder Soap
Sometimes, the best gift for gun lovers isn’t directly associated with guns or the gun they own. Every so often, the best gift is something outside the box, like this gun powder soap. Yes, you can get a soap with the scent of gunpowder along with other scents, like whiskey and the great outdoors. These types of soaps remind your gun lover of the shooting range. All those good feelings rush back to your loved one’s heart every time they shower. That’s not something you can easily do with any other gift but this one. It may not seem that powerful, but the olfactory sense is a powerful one that can trigger all sorts of emotions. Gifting this soap can end up being quite memorable.
Unique Ice Tray
Ice trays normally look like cubes, but there are more options. If you look hard enough online, you’ll see that ice trays can be in all sorts of shapes. In this case, you want a gun-shaped ice tray. This is done so that every time you want a cold drink you’ll have an ice cube in the shape of a gun. It’s a fun thing to have and something that your gun lover should appreciate. If your family member has guests, they’ll make a statement with these little ice cubes. Plus, you’ll give everyone something to talk about. The gift is pretty inexpensive, which is great if you don’t want to spend a lot on a gift this time around.
