Giving Away .22 Ammo as Advertising
« on: March 04, 2014, 06:59:36 PM »
A guy gave away baggies with ten rounds of .22 and a business card in them as a way to drive readers to his blog.  This might also be used to lure people to the MOC tables set up at NRA Days and similar events.

I've been corresponding with Dean about the Deffert case. He does a good job.

Seems like a great idea.

I have also heard that ACDL raffles guns on occasion. Raffle might not be the right word. Seems it would be a good way to get funds for future legal issues..

They do raffles through the year that yield tens of thousands of dollars. The AR's usually do really well. :)

Current raffle is for a Glock23.

Also have a sweet deal on frontsite.. diamond memberships for those serious shooters in the crowd. ;)

You better make sure there's only one baggie on the table at a time. I know id grab multiple to "give" to my friends lol.
I could write something cliché and insightful, but that would be too cliché and insightful.

I shoot first... its better to give than to receive
