Yes, it's true. Megan is making Harry get rid of his guns. The esteemed British publication Page Six reported:
Prince Harry has reportedly sold his prized handmade rifles worth more than $60,000 after he quit hunting out of respect for his actress wife Meghan Markle.To think I watched Cromwell last week. Comic Bridget Phetasy had a field day with the news. Watch the video til the end. ;-)
Harry, 35, has unloaded the two weapons — from a British gunmaker Purdey — by selling them to another hunter in a private deal, according to The Sun.
The former royal, who learned to hunt as a child, has not joined his colleagues at recent game shooting events and is believed to have quit hunting altogether due to Markle’s opposition to the practice.
Harry sold the guns five months ago, a friend of the anonymous buyer told the paper. Rest of article.
And of course, that song at the end gives me an excuse to include this video as well.

500 plus years of Inbreeding within that "royal family" has made every one of em'crazy as shit.
The Queen remains the only one with an ounce of sense.
I-Do remorse, much Harry? Yoko Markle keeps his balls in a jar by the door.
Never marry a woman who makes you give up fishing, hunting or your guns.
Meghan Markle is a snake! And Harry is a dim bulb. They deserve each other. They gave up a life of leisure as royals in the UK to be irrelevant squatters in a tacky McMansion in LA. I don’t think Harry knows what hit him.
I don't think 'in-breeding' is the correct term for Harry's issues. The Q lost control when she stopped the practice of screening the boys' dates.
Grew up in Leeds England. Came here to play college soccer in 1996. I've never understood why Americans are so obsessed with the Royal family. People back home see them as leeches and spoiled babies. At least Americans accept them and it's extremely odd.
Am I the only person who does not care one bit about British royalty or what they do?
My mama taught me early in life that the royal families are no better than ours---just richer.
Harry has learned THE most important rule:
Happy wife, happy life.
A man can have a happy wife and still be unhappy. But the reverse is not true. If your wife is unhappy, you will be unhappy. Always. There is no exception to the rule.
Knowing and living by that rule is the secret to every happy marriage.
IT must be fantastic. Purdy shotguns and rifles are fine works of art.
7:19 You are correct but methinks this one will never be happy.
@ 6:48, you and me both. I'm a 46 year-old American, and I've never understood why so many of my fellow citizens are obsessed with the BRITISH royal family. I could give 2 shits about them and their lives. I wish no ill will on them, but what they do is completely insignificant in my eyes.
8:22 am Purdy is a paint brush and Purdey is a rifle.
As for the rest of you, Harry might have agreed, as someone who suffered from depression and whose mother apparently did as well, that if their child inherits that predisposition, it might be good not to have guns in the house.
Or, as in my household, there was an accidental discharge with a rifle that could have turned out badly. We agreed...no more weapons in the house.
As for me, it's entirely their business and I don't know why, as long as they aren't harming others, everyone doesn't mind their own business. Why pick on them?...their lives, their business.
High school ...this is for the " never left high school" crowd.
Those genes are now undergoing a rather radical modification.
@6:51 AM
No, you are not the only one. There are at least two of us.
What's the big deal, some guys wear panties and have nose rings because the wife wants them to.
Harry is an adult. If he wanted to he could have told her that his guns do not affect their marriage, and to get over it. I know that Harry understands (with his military background) that guns don't kill people - stupid people holding guns kill people.
And I don't think Harry is stupid. After all, he finally found a way to escape the royals.
It’s still the undefeated champion of the world - and always will be.
9:07, there is no such thing as an accidental discharge. They are negligent discharges. A rifle is a machine that requires several deliberate actions to make it fire. Make it fire. They don't do it on their own. One must load, close the action, remove the safety, and apply sufficient pressure to the trigger to have it fire. That's why commonly accepted safety rules adopted by both the military and the civilian world advise treating them like they're loaded, not pointing them at anything you don't intend to destroy, keeping your finger off the trigger until you're ready to fire, and not removing a safety until you're ready to fire. Your 'accidental discharge' required ignoring three of those. That is the very definition of negligence, hence the phrase negligent discharge. I am truly thankful it wasn't pointed such that someone was harmed. You made the right choice in giving them up.
I had a strong feeling that chick was gonna be trouble.......One day, Harry's gonna look back and think, "WTF did I do?"

Possibly, it should be pointed-out, that what Americans ACTUALLY think and feel, and what America's media TELLS US TO think and feel, are not the same. At every religion-based holiday, the Pope is shown as presiding over that holiday. One would assume, given what one is shown on television, that the Pontiff is accepted as the Spiritual Leader of all Americans. This could not be farther from the truth. It's one example of our media deliberately (and fairly consistently) showing the opposite of the truth.
We were told, by the MSM, that Donald Trump was just terrible - the worst monster who ever crawled the Earth. Based solely on his demonization by Big Media, most of us concluded that he must be pretty great. Anybody hated by Rachel Madcow, Piers Morgan, and Miguel Almaguer.... well... how could we go wrong with Donald, if THEY hate him? And their continued demonization of Donald, tells us that he must be doing a pretty-damn-good job.
When wondering whether there's any substance to Covid-19's supposed "deadliness", all we have to do is tune in to NBC, where Lester Holt, with lights positioned to make his eyes appear filled with tears, delivers his never-ending Covid-19 schmalzbucket. That's all it takes, for us to KNOW it's a bunch'a hooey (being pushed by bad people with evil motives).
Same with the "Royal Family". We feel about them, the same way YOU do. But Big Media SHOWS the opposite of the truth. "Our" media want us to accept Princess Meggin (or Ditchess Jeggings, or whatever her name is) as a real-life Disney Princess, being whisked off in a Powder Blue battery-powered Malibu Barbie Jaguar. But we just see her as an opportunistic skank, who caught the feeble-minded son of a bunch of troublemaking GERMANS who somehow usurped Great Britain's Throne.
6:48, Americans are obsessed with the spoiled leeches Royal family for the same ignorant reasons they are obsessed with the spoiled leeches Kennedy family here in the US; because they’re sheep too dumb and lazy to study.
Ted Kennedy had to be dead for the better part of a decade before someone had the guts to do a movie about Chappaquiddick. How sad is it that so many Americans were totally unaware of this and his other crimes.
Joe was a Nazi sympathizer and Jack was a wimp that should have court martialed after his errors led to the sinking of PT 109 but ole Joe with the help of a corrupt media and of course Hollywood turned Jack into a hero that would become Prez.
To answer your question, maybe it’s because we teach our daughters from a very young age to believe in fairy tales and princes; and then never teach them to grow up.
Standing ovation to @2:13. That was the dead center of the bullseye.
He only had two guns?
12:43 pm In this instance, it was a military issued weapon while in service that was supposed to be unloaded. It turned out it was loaded and that it was fortunately a blank. It was a freak fall. I knock it over by accident and still am unclear why that caused it to discharge.
The lesson was not to trust even one's superiors when it comes to weapons. Look for yourself. And, for me to look where I'm going as something may be there that usually isn't.
This...is really and truly a discussion? Oh, my word, we have seriously degenerated, even by the (low) standards of this yabba-dabba-doo blog.
But, to be charitable...we are all at home, becoming increasingly restless and bored, and if the continuing saga of those two dull people provide a bit of amusement, well, then their existence on this planet is justified.
Meghan Markle seems pretty grabby, and Harry seems pretty stupid (and seditious) to have tried to introduce a black chick into the Windsor/Mountbatten family. But, who really cares? Royals have done idiotic things for centuries.
Look at what England has become, since the decline of the monarchy. It will only get worse...
