Calling out another shooter

[benjamin-benjamin]

I saw something out of the ordinary and i feel like it is necessary to call him out on this. So yesterday at the heartland match Lonnie won the 50 dollar gift certificate for holster/training with David E. Instead of keeping it he gave it to a 13 year old that i brought from my church who was at the match and it was only the 2nd time he has ever shot. He was very encouraging and now David is going to hook him up with some training and he is very excited about getting better and doing more matches. I always tell people how nice the gun community is but people just don't understand until they get around everyone. Sorry, but there was no way i was going to let Lonnie get away with such a good deed, so i had to call him out!!!!

Lonnie is a great guy and a wonderful example of the shooting community. His son Robby is also a similarly great guy, they both helped me a ton when I first started shooting...

That deserves a pat on the back!! Good job, Lonnie!! Bringing new shooters into the gun community and the competitive community is always a good thing!!

Lonnie an Robbie are good people. We all could use that example as a lesson.

Very nice gesture and a good example for all of us. Thanks for sharing.

Way to go Lonnie!

That SOB. I don't know how we let him get away with that.


Good job brother.

Knowing Lonnie what little I do, this surprises me not one little bit. :13:

Nice! You Okies are the best. Did u guys see the episode of 3 Gun Nation where Kurt Miller gave his slot in the shootoffs to 15 year old Katie Harris? The selflessness in this sport never ceases to amaze me.

Good job Lonnie! Great way to get a new shooter into the sport. You're a good man!

You know, that kind of doesn't surprise me, considering the extremely high caliber folks in the shooting community! And yes the pun is intended!

These things are what makes a new shooter a life long shooter.
