In case you haven't heard, one of our members (82ndAbn) has taken sick with a serious illness.

From Ed Sr:

"We pride ourselves in the fact that we take care of our own,when they are in need. In the past,we have helped people who have lost -or were close to losing- their homes. We have helped veterans in desperate need of financial assistance,when they have fallen on hard times.We have helped the sick,as well as those overseas, fighting for freedom and risking their lives in the military. Tonight,I ask you to help a good man who fits all the criteria mentioned above. This man is a combat veteran and member of the site.He has always given cash and donated his time whenever it was necessary without ever expecting anything in return. He is seriously ill with a lethal disease of the liver, that will require a transplant. His disease-Primary Billiary cirrhosis (PBC) -is not the result of him abusing his body with alcohol, drugs or anything else.It is a disease that affects some people,in a similar way to Diabetes,Lupus,etc.(IOW,not "self inflicted") I will not bore you with details,but I must tell you some basic facts. His medical care will apparently be covered by the VA,so we do not have to worry about the horrendous medical expenses that will be incurred with the transplant.Thank God that in his case, the VA will not abandon one of our veterans in times of need,as has happened to so many other vets. Because of his debilitating illness and jaundice (yellow skin,eyes,etc) due to the non-functioning liver,he can no longer be employed. What we need to help him with,is food,rent,utilities and other expenses until he gets his transplant.He is the kind of man who has not said a word about his condition (I found out through another person) and has continued participating in the site.............. at a limited and deminished rate. If giving him a piece of my liver were possible (I already asked) ,I would not think twice about being his donor.Unfortunately,it seems that a partial liver transplant is not a possibility in his case. That is the kind of man I am talking about."

I met 82nd at Gunstock and I can vouch for Ed's opinion of the man because I share it with him. He is truly a cut above the rest. If there is a time, any time, that you feel the need to reach out and lend a hand up, now should be that time.

So, in order to help, a couple of us dug around in the closet for some odds and ends we weren't using and put together a raffle to raise some cash for 82ndAbn.

Here's a list of the prizes:


This the actual Cavarms rifle in the raffle next to my 2005 SEBR which is just like the one in the raffle.



Here's the Hipower:


Me want!

Here's the C7 upper. (It's Canadian you know)



Here's the waffle mag. (if I won this, I would shoot it once and then just use it for pics)




Ammo:



Surfire L2:



Colt Baby Browning (sweet):



Browning BAR II Safari model with BOSS in 7mm Mag




HG removal tool and KAC grip. If you're a builder, the removal tool is very handy!




Pack cover




Here's the deal: Tickets are $20 each, 6 for $100. The raffle will run for 4 weeks with the drawing on Friday, March 16th. Winners will be posted here and contacted via IM and email.

If you win one of the rifles you must arrange the transfer just like normal. You will have to send a signed copy of your FFL to either captainpooby(me) or Ed Sr. and we will ship your rifle to your FFL.

If you win the EOTech, nationwide will ship to your address same goes for the mags from 4get_No1, Bumblebee_Bob and LANCEMAN and the coin from M4Madness etc.. for all the other prizes.

WE ARE UNABLE TO ACCEPT PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL. THEY WILL NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO USE THEIR SERVICE FOR ANYTHING GUN RELATED AND IF THEY FIND OUT WHAT IT'S FOR THEY WILL LOCK MRSGLOFTOES ACCT AND FREEZE THE MONEY.

To purchase with check or MO send $20 per ticket or $100 for six tickets to:

Jeff Cook (Gloftoe)
PO Box 162504
Austin, TX 78716-2504

Make a note on the check or MO with your boardname and 82ndAbn raffle.

It is imperative that you include your boardname!!

You will not actually receive tickets since it's a "virtual raffle" on the internet. Your name will be put in the virtual hat and we'll draw and announce the winners here.

The prizes are not "virtual", they are very real!

Thanks, please be generous and good luck to all!

I had an IM question from someone serving in Iraq so I'll answer it here. If anyone serving overseas wins any of the prizes, we will do whatever it takes to hang on to your prize and get it to you when you get home and that includes the firearms!  



Void where prohibited by law. Winners may be asked to answer a skill testing question. No animals were harmed in the making of this raffle although we aren't above harming animals. Your Momma wears army boots, God bless her and God bless the USA!!!!

Nice prizes... but, even if I did win anything (which I could care less about), send it to 82ndAbn... most of that stuff is probably a no-go in MA anyways.
