Army Chief's Rifle Fund Raiser
In honor of our friend and fellow moderator here at Weapon Evolution, CW5 Charles Petrie, we are are going hold a fundraiser for his family. As you probably know, Chuck passed away on December 7th 2013. He was a great father, husband, solider, and mentor to many of us. The Chief is greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. Our goal is to raise $10,000 and provide 100% of those funds to his family. We at Weapon Evolution decided to assist several members who came forward with the idea to raffle off a complete rifle for this cause. The members who wanted no credit, put this project together and we can't thank them enough. This rifle was 100% donated by manufacturers/vendors/WEVO members. The rifle was then professionally built by the armorers at Rainier Arms.
A maximum of 500 entries will be allowed at $20 per entry. All proceeds will go directly to Chuck's family. All parts were donated, all fees covered as stated before.
The rifle is complete and ready to ship to the winner. We've gone with the DMR/Recce profile for this particular gun. His son, Matt Petrie has approved of this build, and given his blessing for this event.
Here are the specs of the rifle:
Rainier Arms Forged Lower
Rainier Arms Raptor
Rainier Arms 18" Mountain Series Barrel
7075 MilSpec Receiver Extension
Mission First Tactical Grip

Very nice. If I find out it's legal for you to ship to MD (has to be considered HBAR) I'll enter the raffle.
Good luck to all who enter this raffle for a wonderful cause.

You don't even know how much I hate ET. One Christmas I wanted an X-Wing fighter. I was so exited when I saw that box under the tree. I tore into that box like a fat kid on Valentine's day. And there he was that damn ET. Thanks Browcs for peeling the scab off.

This cause is definitely worth kicking $20 to. Surprised you capped it at 500.
