Thats good of you Jake. That will get them to the range ready to shoot.

Eric_Oh · 04-19-2005, 12:46 AM

I'm not sure what a KARMA is, but i'm a relatively new shooter who does not own a pair of ear muffs and was in the market for one. I've owned my xd, my first gun, for around 2 months i think. But what is a KARMA?

Thanks. Count me in.

" Do not include me in this Kharma "

Kharma is
In Buddhist teaching, the law of karma, says only this: `for every event that occurs, there will follow another event whose existence was caused by the first, and this second event will be pleasant or unpleasant according as its cause was skillful or unskillful.' A skillful event is one that is not accompanied by craving, resistance or delusions; an unskillful event is one that is accompanied by any one of those things. (Events are not skillful in themselves, but are so called only in virtue of the mental events that occur with them.)

On this board people from time to time will give things away for free from time to time sometimes just because other times if something good has happened to them and they wish to pass on the "blessing". Sometimes its new stuff and other times its people wishing to get rid of stuff they no longer need and give to others that may use it.

Hey wJAKE19

Since you want this to be new shooters only you might want to say only those that are under x number of posts.

Eric_Oh · 04-19-2005, 03:26 AM

thanks for the explanation of the whole kharma thing. Well then if it wasn't clear enough in my first reply, yes please count me in for the kharma.

As for using post count to determine newb status, i don't know if that is gonna disqualify me... but in my defense... i was posting on here and asking questions before i purchased my gun and especciarly more so while in was in my waiting period.

anyway... i think its really great that people are so generous to each other on this board.

I don't exactly qualify as a new shooter.But I need a range bag

So if I am eligible I could pick up.
You won the big one at the shoot?

Smoke_Works · 04-19-2005, 06:53 AM

I just wanted to thank you in advance for the gear. Being a noob is, well, it's refreshing to win something. I'm an Aries who enjoys long walks on the beach, fine wines and puppy dogs...oh, and handguns, bulk ammo, hi capacity magazines, fiber optics, range finding reticles, hydra-shok ammunition and romantic movies at home.

Thanks bunches.
