        I won a 13 week “all inclusive” vacation at a resort Island from a Marine Corp recruiter back in 1981. Thought he said it was on Hilton Head, but turned out to Parris Island. Part of a four year, no refund, package deal.

                bit of a sidetrack but usually it's $1200 or more value gets reported. Same for lottery scratchers and such. I do know someone that won one of those cars at a casino, just weeks after winning $30k at a slot machine. I don't mind signing up for some of these giveaways, as I have an email account I use for just this kind of stuff, not my bills and personal stuff.

                  not me, but somebody joined the FN forums to ask about a rifle he won.

                      CRPA and GOC have a gun a week giveaway and they list the winners on their website every week. All or most are Ca. winners. SAF also has a giveaway that seems legit also. So many cynics, join a few Ca. orgs. and enjoy.

                            Normally, I just make an annual donation to a NRA-ILA or CRPA Foundation. I'd rather they keep the magazines, duffle bags, hats etc. However, if they are going to give the firearm away anyways, why not me? I saw on theCRPA website the last giveaway was a Walter P22, but I couldn't see past giveaways. Is this a typical giveaway value?

                              The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
                              Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
                              Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
                              The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
                              The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
                              The best lack all conviction, while the worst
                              Are full of passionate intensity.

                                The only thing I have ever won from these giveaways is spam emails.
