[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3175130, member: 10465"] We started the "Pay it Forward" (PIF) section, which is a sticky under General Discussions here, in June of 2016. PIF was started as a means to enhance the whole idea of being a "community", not just another place to sell your stuff, like Armslist. It requires (asks actually) that you be an established member and that you post an item if you take an item, but it's strictly on the honor system. We have had over 300 posts in that thread since it started, and in my best estimate, we have had about 150 items given away in order to Pay it Forward to each other! As we are a relatively small, focused, community-based forum, I think this has been a great thing. Not only do you get the pleasure of helping out a fellow member, but you get to often meet them as well and put a face to a screen name. We are one of a very few gun forums around that does PIF. Thanks to everyone here who has paid it forward so far. If you haven't participated in Pay it Forward, please check the thread out. Surely you have a set of rings, a magazine for a long gone pistol, some ammo you no longer have a need for, spare parts you can part with, a holster...who knows? Let’s keep the ball rolling, ‘cause it’s a good thing. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
