Karma question

General General Discussion
1

Worked for the same construction company for 7 years recently went freelance/independent contractor.

Company owner and me still on good terms, he’s actually giving me advice on LLC etc send me, contact for smaller jobs.

I’ve been on a high end custom home for about a month. & was in need of some specialized tools and shop time, He owns a really nice cabinet shop with all the toys, Festool, Felder, Laguna plus all kinds of Bosch & Stabilia portable items.

I’ve offer to pay rental shop time, But he doesn’t care and simply lets me use whatever i need as long as it doesn’t negatively effect his operations.

So over a BS session he expressed interest in buying a revolver.

As it happens I have a S&W Model 28-2 Serial N201xxx that I never shoot.

So I’m thinking of just giving it to him, Thoughts from the Forum?

That’s a stand-up thing to do.

3

I’d say give him the revolver. Sounds like he’s been a good friend and helpful. If your in a position to return the favor then go for it.

4

Agree, the cost of the revolver is small compared to the benefits you reap.

5

Absolutly good karma and a good way to show appreciation.

6

This. That sums it up.

7

DO IT. Report back the awesomeness.

8

Agreed. It sounds like a great way to show him how much you appreciate all the help he’s so freely given.

dude sounds cool to let you use things etc…

you know any wear on machines and electric to run them is money and worth something he seems to be supportive of what you like if he wants to get into fire arms chance to be supportive back :wink:

I love love love wood working would like to get better that shop sounds insane nice :slight_smile:

10

Sounds like what a real gentleman would do.

11

Don’t know if he is new to guns or revolvers, but some range time with him would be nice too.

12

Hell throw in a 1000 rounds of premium defense ammo while your at it…or just give him the gun. I’m sure he would appreciate it.

13

I was thinking the same thing.

14

No way, sell it to me for $100 then buy him a case of beer.

:sarcastic:

15

$100 for that old gun? The cylinder is too short for heavy bullets and S&W doesn’t even have parts for them anymore…

Seriously, that is a nice gift.

Sounds like a good move on your part. He’s been good to you, and it’d be a nice way to show your appreciation.

17

Pass it on!

18

I would make sure he is not a prohibited person tactfully !

19

I agree with everyone else. If your friend isn’t prohibited, then definitely gift him the revolver. Sounds like he’s been good to you over the years, so it’d be a very nice gesture of appreciation.

Do it. Throw in some Winchester 145-grain .357 Magnum Silvertips. They killed like the plague for Texas DPS and the Dallas Police Department with the Model 28. Some modern .357 Gold Dots and Federal GMM wadcutters would be nice as well.
