Default Rifle being raffled by the Ft. McMurray legion

The Fort McMurray branch 165 of the royal Canadian Legion is raffling off a custom built rifle as a fund raiser to help repair the the damage caused by our Spring flood. This is the second rifle they have raffled off, last year's was a great success, a stellar piece in 308 built by Rob Cooper Outdoors, but they went all out on this one for this year!
Tickets are $25, you can EMT the money to
ironsightercat@yahoo.com
shoot me a PM here
and I will scan the ticket and send you a scan of the stub
Spec sheet is below
Cat

and here's the rifle!

Is shipping it an option if someone put in from a long distance away?

Folks, please DO NOT buy tickets...….as it lowers MY chance of winning!

Just kidding!!
I sent Cat an EMT the other night and bright and early, he had it deposited and my ticket information sent to me. Zero surprise there as all of my interactions with him have been stellar.

I was really happy to help out a good bunch of folks and encourage others to do the same, if they are able to do so.

thanks
Hawkeye

Rob is a local gunsmith who trained Stateside, and does great work.
However he does not advertise and prefers to stay low key as this is not his full time job.

Thanks Folks, the Legion Appreciates you support!
