Why not? I realize some people compare to huntsville, but really, life's normal activities are not suspended.
I think I was still carrying a revolver back when I got married, and it went with me everywhere.
As for whether the wife likes it or not... I suggest you get that settled right now. I got married a little bit later in life, and I had some firm ideas about what was and was not going to work. I came to Texas planning to acquire the following: house/land, pets, horse, CHL, and wife. In that order (then I had to be a resident 6 months to get the
CHL. If the wife candidate did not like any of those things, I figured we were not going to be compatible enough to get along. So far it works.
