Very generous and a great pistol. Retired LEO but don't include me. I would want it to go to an active duty cop.

You do some pretty dang sweet karmas...I'll roll the dice for this one.

Very nice of both of you! That reminds me of the one I carried back in the early 90's... It's my pleasure to "serve and protect" and hopefully I can come up with something as nice to offer up for the Karmanator to send to a new home. Please add my name as well, never jumped in on one, but as stated it is nice coming from these two great forum members. Stay safe all!

Wow!!! How incredibly generous 12131, yet again! Thank you KevinCW for giving those of us who've never owned a P228 a chance at one. Please count me in.

Wow. Please include me in this amazing karma. I carried one for a few years before we went to the P220 (have carried the same one for 22 years!), and let a personal one go years ago and have always regretted it. Thank you Kevin for the chance at it.

First: Many thanks to KevinCW and 12131!
Second: Count me in for the karma.
Third: 3. KevinCW: "Thank you for all the support you guys/gals have shown me. It does help keep me sane, even after the shifts where i want to do nothing more than rock back and forth in the shower..."..........take a cold beer into the shower with you. The cold beer and a two headed shower with a monsoon/class 1 hurricane shower head works wonders......The shower is my decompression chamber too......just need a 300 gallon water heater now.

I can't say enough about his generosity, so I won't even try. So I'm not out anything financially, that is all his doing, and people should be in awe of the generosity he has shown the membership here.
2. Someone please enjoy this 228. One of the finest weapons ever produced.

Great to see you post Kevin. I hope you are doing okay and wish you the best.

You don't have to count me for this one, as I have already been on the receiving end of your amazing karma. I thanks for showing your appreciation for my line of work in this way. One lucky officer is going to have a lot of fun with this sweet shooter.

Just had a thought to make this Karma a little more awesome (if that's possible)
How about everyone participating agree to send their department patch to the winner? I have one of mine to spare.

Don't enter me I'm not a LEO. Just wanted to say thanks you Kevin and 12131 for making SF a better place. Maybe one day I'll get to shoot a P228. Good luck to all the LEO's out there.
Charlie, I have followed you for a long time. If you ever find yourself up this way, range trip on me and you can shoot mine... then dinner and drinks after.
Thanks Kevin and you be safe up there.

What an incredible karma. I would be honored to be considered. Thank you.

I'll throw in on yet another unbelievable karma. After almost 20yrs this will hopefully be my last year "on the job". Got my hooks in a non-LE position to move to shortly and I'm ready to go. Thanks to all for the opportunity.
