Thank you, Hazcat.
I would also like to note that I am a member in good standing of the Sig Forum, the Ruger Forum, the S&W Forum, the C&R Forum, Brian Enos' Forums and a number of others and have been for years.
It was never my intent to limit to Giveaway to members of the Forum...I'm not even sure such a thing can be done legally, although my lawyer is looking into it to see if we can do a "We're Sorry!" special giveaway. My apologies if you feel I misrepresented myself.
For future reference, here is the specific wording as required by law that applies to any and all Giveaways on this site:
2) Eligibility: This Sweepstakes is open only to legal residents of the 50 United States (excluding, without limitation, The District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and other US territories, and locales where handgun/firearms ownership is prohibited by law or ordinance), who currently reside in the US and who are 21 years of age or older at the time of entry. Employees, directors and their immediate families (parents, children, siblings, spouse) or members of households of Down Range Television and Flying Dragon Ltd., its affiliates, advertising, design, print production and publicity agencies and anyone connected with the production and distribution of this sweepstakes are not eligible to enter or be awarded a prize.
3) The winner of this sweepstakes will be required to have a valid driver's license or state-issued photo identification as proof of age and residency and will be required to complete an ATF Form #4473 and pass a NICS background check at his or her local firearms retailer that holds a valid Federal Firearms License. All firearms transfers will take place between Federal Firearms License holders and must be in compliance with all federal, state and local laws and ordinances for the recipient’s home location.
4) Failure to comply with each of these requirements will result in a forfeiture of the prize. Down Range Television and Flying Dragon Ltd. will not be responsible for any fees collected by the retailer to perform these services. Such fees shall be at the winner's sole expense. By entering this sweepstakes, participants agree to these Official Rules and to the decisions of the Sponsor, which are final and binding, in all respects. This offer is void where prohibited by law, and subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations. YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS SWEEPSTAKES IF YOU ARE NOT LOCATED WITHIN THE UNITED STATES.
5) How to Play: In order to qualify, entrants must complete the online entry form at www.downrange.tv. Only one entry per person will be accepted. Multiple entries will be deleted. The Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, garbled, stolen, misdirected, returned, non-deliverable, illegible entries, unavailable network connections or transmissions, or problems of any kind, whether mechanical, human or electronic. All entries are the property of Down Range Television and Flying Dragon Ltd. and no entries will be acknowledged or returned.
In fact, for companies in a market society, it is indeed all about the sales. I can't get guns to give away because people like me, as much as I might wish that was the case! I get them because we offer the companies something in return. It would have been quantums easier to simple give away an out-of-the-box gun, as some other sites do. Instead, I opted to try and create the kinds of guns that I want to own.
Again, my apologies.
My hope is that you will all continue entering our Giveaways.
