I've been thinking about this for a few days... I got a Custom Glock 22 .40 cal, titanium firing pin, titanium guide rod insert, polished ramp, Glockworks 3.5 lb. trigger job, JP alum. mag well, and two Glock Hi-cap mags w/TF +7 bottoms. I would need 15 participants @ $50 per ticket- that's 1 in 15 chance to own this piece...those are GOOD ODDS. or... 30 participants @ $25 per ticket- 1 in 30 chance...still GOOD ODDS, but less cost per entry. Someone other than me could collect the money(Certified funds or Money Orders)and when all 15 or 30 checks are mailed in to him, the Raffle ticket is picked by someone(who hasn't entered the contest)so there's no scammin'. The Winner is picked, he provides me with a signed FFL and I mail him the piece...then he contacts the "purse man" when he receives the Glock, afterwhich he mails me the checks. I think it would be fun to Win a GLock for $25 or even $50, don't you? All we would need is "the purse man" So, Who's In? this has been posted on "equipment exchange"-Complete Weapons For Sale as well. |
| That a raffle is not allowed within the confines of this privately held board I may disagree with, but certainly understand that it is due to the myriad restrictions per law. That there BE these myriad restrictions agries up my blood. Can someone, ANYONE, give me or anyone else even ONE good reason ANYONE has to justify sticking their beaks into how I or anyone else conducts commerce? Anyone? Bueller? Sorry for the rant, but good golly miss Molly, I really get quite upset at pointless intervention in areas that simply require no intervention. But then, I'm a Libertarian, could any of you have guessed?[:D] |

Personal raffles or business are not allowed in the GD. Sale of items in the EE is perfectly acceptable. Linking to a raffle on another site is also acceptable. I encourage everyone who participates in such events to carefully consider the possibilities of scams and to keep in mind this site does NOT have any control in offsite raffles. Thanks! ]=) |
