It's called 'pay it forward' or Karma. Same thing.

A good way to do it is if you have something to give, post it and give a time limit, usually 5 days or a week, for people to say "I'm in!". Then draw a name. (Or put all the names on 'post-its' on a target, First one hit gets it.) That way it's fair for everyone involved, not just the first person who has a FREE alarm. And it makes it more interesting.

Usually the winner offers something else up, hence paying it forward, or passing on the Karma.

I did it once on Bersa Talk. Offered 200 rounds of .223 brass for reloading. Had 7 people say "I'm in." (I paid shipping)

Yeah, pay it forward by bringing a gallon of red wine to NFA and I'll pay it forward by drinking it! :thumbsup:

Sounds like my anothropology class!

Let me know anything I can do for you!

I'm may have some things that will be free for others who will utilize them better than I.

A gallon! You would be trash faced!! I could put a pretty good dent in a gallon but I would be paying for it the next day. Esp. wine!


Pay it forward! Uncle Mikes G23 IWB holster





If you want it let me know, I'm in Summerlin (Durango/Alta)

Guido likes that cheap wine that comes in the cardboard box.

red wine

I was thinking of the $7 glass jug but a cardboard box wine is a good idea too!
I would think that Guido would prefer a Chiante in a wicker wraped jug! Or maybe a nice full bodied Amarone... Drink a gallon of that and see how you feel whenyou wake up?

I could be in for this. Let me dig around in the garage and see what I can find.. Always have take off stuff sitting around..
Hold on a sec, isn't the ball in JfComfort court? A Glock 23 holster is up for grabs or is this just a free for all and doesn't go in sequential order?

i thought you always drew from the names that were in?
It should be that way. No PMs or dibs.

One karma at a time, and draw a name. Then the winner passes karma on with something else.

Makes it last longer, and fair to all. Not be a cluster****.

Exactly, once JF completes his forward to Rngrmed02, Rngrmed02 will offer something.

NO "I'll Take it PMs" Post on this thread so everyone knows whose ball is in whose court, please! :drunktalk:
