Has anyone ever won a firearm from a raffle?
I bet I've entered 20 or so over the years. Each time I think this is the one but I've never won.
Gunbroker is always doing an email harvesting firearm giveaway raffle. Sig up and get 10 emails a day from random websites. Never won squat there either. Or from Classic Firearms.
But because I am a slow leaner, I will continue to enter.... and continue to be let down.

I have never won anything like that and I always try to win if there is a free raffle... I figure someone has to win. And it only takes 3 seconds to click unsubscribe on an email.
But alas... never won jack squat.
Wait, I did win a pocket camcorder from a Pepsi bottle back in like 07. Next year after that phones started coming with cameras and it was junk.

Won a camo 1187 several years ago on a buy a paper ticket, and they drew my name.
Never won anything on the email signup raffles, but have had friends win on some of those raffle face book groups that used to be around. Venmo/paypal some guy and pick a number, and they use the random number generator.

I fell for my first one ever last night.
I usually just delete, but for some reason I finally clicked and entered last night. I guess because it was Springfield.
Now, I'm waiting to hit the "unsubscribe" button.

Won quite a few at various banquets. You just have to pass the background check at the dealer.

I have never won but entered way too many. Our company employees tries to get everyone involved for their kid's sports fundraisers and I'm always suckered in. I'm beginning to think they're rigged and no mas!

Only thing of value I have ever won was $1000 by being the tenth caller to 97.1 the eagle, that was years ago. I’ve played in 100s of golf scrambles with mucho door prize drawings and I get nada. I’m just not a very lucky person as far as winning things

entered a couple then figured out they were just phishing for email addresses. no more only thing I have ever won was a turkey back in about 1968 cuz I just happened to be the next one thru the door just before thanksgiving, dam thing probably only weighed 8#. and a 50.00 gift certificate from the last gtg, I think Ratz just felt sorry for me after the boat problems tho.

I won a nice Howa 1500 22-250 with a cheap scope in a Fireman's raffle a couple years ago. It was nice because the ticket you bought was good for each weekly drawing for 52 weeks, even if you won it was put back into the drawing for the remaining weeks. I know of 1 person that won twice that year.
