Pay It Forward
WarHorse1961:
I saw this on another forum and I think it's a great idea. So I thought I'd try to start it up here.
The idea is simple. I will start by posting something for free (no shipping, no handling, no charge at all). The first "I'll take it" gets it. But, that person must in turn put up a free item(s) with the same conditions. All shipping addresses, meetings, etc. should be handled via pm or email between parties.
Remember this isn't a trade thread, it's a give away thread. I count on your honor to post something of some value as well as follow through on all commitments.
Seeing as how I borrowed the idea, I guess I'll go first. I actually have a few items.
* Fobus Paddle Holster (KM3). It has a few scuff marks, but they're not bad. Decided to go with leather, so I just don't use this anymore.

* DeSantis Thumb Break Scabbard Holster in Black Basketweave. I got this off of Ebay sight unseen. Unfortunately, my Kimber fits so tight, I can hardly draw from it. I think if you have the time, you might be able to get it to stretch out a bit. I don't really like the basketweave, so I don't want to spend the time working on it.
I guess they changed their lineup, but it's very similar to this. Though with 2 slots. (Their picture does not match their description, sorry)

* Boston's Gun Bible. Author: Boston T. Party (aka Kenneth W. Royce). Non-Fiction. Although it's one persons idea of the perfect(?) battle rifle, he gives a lot of pros and cons on most of them so you can make up your own mind.
* Unintended Consequences. Author: John Ross. Fiction. Although it's fiction, it's more of a history about gun control. There are quite a few facts interspersed in the storyline. The historic facts were extensively researched and it shows. There are some sections that go into detail about murder and sex, so this is not be a good book for young adults.
* Molon Labe. Author: Boston T. Party. Fiction. With a lot of talk about States Rights, this is a pretty good story about the people of Wyoming making a stand. Much less graphic than Unintended Consequences.
So, who wants what?
It's pretty simple. "Hey WarHorse, I'll take the Fobus Holster. In return, I'm offering ________". Then PM me and we'll work out the details on how to get the holster to you.
SBarry:
Hey Warhorse, I'll take the Desantis Thumbreak Scabard. In return, I am offering an IWB Black holster for a Commander size 1911. It is new, just not my thing. It has a metal belt clip. I forgot the name and lost the package.
Sotex:
Warhorse,
I'm interested in a copy of "Unintended Consequences."
I've got a 5.11 fanny pack that didn't work out for my purposes:

This one has the tan front.
WarHorse1961:
SBarry, sorry it took so long to send out the holster. You know, family comes first. :) I sent out the holster today. Post office said it'll take 2 days. I'm assuming, with the New Year holiday, that it'll be there Saturday or Monday.
WarHorse1961:
Sotex, remember, this is a pass it forward, not a trade. So, PM me and we'll work out how to get the book to you. I can mail it to you, or if you're in Omaha (or nearby) we can just meet in person.
