Im going to Elmer Fudd this post: I never win ANY GUN RAFFLES anyway.
I could enter a gun raffle with 50 guns available, they could sell me 100 tickets, and I still couldn't win

I won the only one I've entered so far...
For an evil black gun, no less.

I won one once, well actually my wife bought the ticket and I traded it off for a wood stove for the cabin. It was a 10-22 and didn't need another 22 but did need a stove. Good deal for all.

I have won two gun raffles in 30 years or so.
Woo Hoo!
Actually 3... When I first moved to NY I won a gun raffle at a local bar.
I was new around here then and some shenanigans took place and one of the loud mouth bully type regulars ended up with the gun... I found this out around two years after the fact.
The gun was a 870 Wingmaster.

Two years in a row this guy I used to work with sat next to me at the local Friends of the NRA dinner and won guns. Two years in a row!
To be fair, I’ve had plenty “walk right into my arms” in other ways so I can’t complain, but damn... two years in a row? Come on!!

Hey Senator Gaughran, I have a news flash for you. You already can't do that.
We have a law called the Safe Act, and it requires a federal background check for firearm transfers.
You are an idiot.

Great. Make rafles for gift cards at Mom & Pops Guns & Ammo.
It's not like you must buy. Why do you begrudge others who like gun raffles. Free choice. Have you heard of suck a concept?
I love them. I probably buy at least 50 tickets per year. Maybe making these events against the law will finally wake up the residents of this fucked State.

'“You can’t raffle off a bottle of wine, so why can you raffle off a (weapon)?” asked Gaughran.'
They should just change that law instead. I don't see a problem with raffling off a bottle of wine. The winner just has to be of legal age.

You can't raffle off a bottle of wine? I have been to a number of events that had bottles of wine as raffle prizes.
