3 tickets for me.
Keep our guys and gals safe. |

5 tickets bought and hopefully some much needed gear for our guys that need it. I got to meet BKS aka godfather at the annual meeting for my gun club. He made mention of this organization and now I know how to give. He seemed like a genuine guy.

I have a question.
I read the first page, IF a Non LEO or Non Active Military(out in 84) such as me gets their ticket pulled, we don't win because of the Class restrictions and NFA Silencers, so then they just draw another name/ticket until they pull a ticket of an LEO or Active Military ? And one ticket gets EVERYTHING ? so only 1 ticket is pulled until they get 1 person that can legaly have all this stuff or take the classes ? I just saw this as I rarely look at the tacked stuff on the top of the pages, I need to start paying attention I guess or I may miss out on some great stuff |
Whoever wishes to foresee the future must consult the Past
a Gun in hand is better than 2 cops on the phone |
I think you misunderstood that disclaimer. As I understand it if you win but cannot accept certain items due to their legality in your state or you not being able to attend LEO only training etc. than only the items you cannot accept will be given to another randomly selected person. Can an admin/mod verify? |

In for tickets when payday comes...

Thats the way I read it as well Rich. |

That's the way it is- only the items that cannot be accepted by the original winner will be offered to an eligible second winner. |

Question:
Suppose my brother and I go in on a bunch of tickets. And let's say that one of our tickets win. Can we split up the package so that he can win the NFA stuff in Ohio and I win the non-NFA stuff in Illinois? |
|
There is iron in your words of death for all to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life or death. It shall be life.

Unless mods or site staff can come up with a better solution, I would say to have your brother [technically] buy them, and just have an agreement that you will split them down the NFA/non-NFA line.

All-
Posted an update with the images of a beautiful rifle donated by Bushmaster. I will also be posting a number of new prizes which have been donated in the next day or two so check the original post. THANKS to all those that have donated so far. This is a hell of a package for one lucky individual; keep in mind the real winners are the guys in the field that will be getting some much needed gear with your donations. These guys are doing their jobs every day reminding the terrorists that you kill Americans, and we will hunt you down... |

Wow, that Bushmaster is a fine looking rifle. Would likely just hang it on the wall and look at it affectionately lol. Is that really snakeskin? or just a patter duracoated on the rifle?
No specs or mention of it anywhere on bushmasters website. |

Do taxes on items won vary from state to state or is there just one percentage. My Dad won a motorcycle a couple of years ago from a school fundraiser, he just bought one ticket to help support it, but ended up having to pay 6,000 in taxes for the bike. He did sell the bike because he isn't a motorcyle person, but the point that im trying to make is that if one person wins this prize do they have to pay taxes on everything or only certain items that meet a specifc MSRP.
That prize list goes on and on and on. I don't think I would feel comfortable receiving it all if I won. At first I was saying in my head, "thats item is cool, so is that, I like that too." Then after those comments I was adding up everything in my head that was offered and was shocked at how much is there. I would be ecstatic if I won just one of those items. The taxes would be the other thing that would stop me from wanting all of it because I wouldn't be able to pay for it. But a possible solution would be like what was mentioned about the suppressors, which was if you cant legally own it, then that item goes back for in the drawing. One could just choose certain items if that would be the case. |

OK- click on the donation 'PURCHASE' button once to add to your cart, then click on your shopping cart link at the top of the page and change the QTY in cart, then 'UPDATE QTY CHANGES' to update your cart. And THANKS in advance for the 50 donations! |

The best thing I've read in this thread! Count me in - a lot. Would be nice to win, but I've been able to drop off some donations to these guys in the past, and will continue to do so long after this raffle is over. I encourage the rest of you to do so, as well. Hooah! |

LOL, I think that'd be worth a little more than $10..... don't you? Maybe AS has a good idea for their next fundraiser, though. |
