Norcy Report post Posted June 10 My sister in law has stage 4 renal cell carcinoma, I am looking at doing a rifle raffle to help with some bills for her. I just don’t know the legalities of doing this. Has any ever done this before that can give me some information on what I can do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanclan4 Report post Posted June 10 Prayers for your sister in law and her family! Don’t know how to get that set up but I’ll ask a couple guys at work that held raffles. Let me know if you need help with accessories to go with the raffle or anything to add to it. 🙏🏾🙏🏾 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazymonkey Report post Posted June 10 Prayers to you and your family. As for doing raffles there's not much to it . I do the kids giveaway and the only thing I got was to make sure to have the gun transferred thru a dealer. It absolutely makes sure your doing everything on the right path. Healeys is who has done the transfer stuff for me . It's $50 bucks a transfer . As for the draw it's up to you . I try and make it as obvious and absolutely as transparent as I can so people see the process for themselves. A short video goes along way. Good luck with your raffle and prayers ! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thegunsmith2506 Report post Posted June 10 A lot of the no profit raffles use an online tool that spins a wheel and they show it live. As long as you use an FFL to do the transfer I think you are good to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norcy Report post Posted June 11 Thank all of you for the best wishes and the help. I just don’t want any issues, the plan is to run it through a local gun shop and they do the back ground check and paper work. Once again thank you all. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
