2011 MONTH OF GUNS WINNERS!!

Once again, we have sold out of our Month of Guns raffle tickets. Each year we sell 400 tickets for $100 each. Each day of November we draw a ticket for a rifle or shotgun. The best part of the raffle - your chances of winning are always the same. If your ticket is pulled out and you win, it goes right back in. It is possible (but pretty unlikely!) for you to win 30 guns. Every year we have at least one person who wins more than one gun. Good luck and thank you to everyone who purchased a ticket!
