    You can give stuff away
    You just can't "hold a raffle" (make people pay for the tickets/game of chance) without going thru the rules.

    Colorado has some of the toughest raffle laws in the nation.

    nope but they can buy lunch or shoot a different colored clay to get a ticket that might be used in a "random" drawing for some free stuff

    honestly its just been wearing me out a bit . i do plan on giving some stuff away but i have no idea on how to word it in such a way that everyone understands that this was meant to be a fun thing , stuff gets cleaned up and we do a little friendly shooting . when its all said and done it would have been nice to be able to do like adults without laws and rules . i was doing my best to present it in more of a family get together and less like some nra function. so what if im willing to put up a beater and some trinkets to have a good time . the raffle idea was so everyone even kids could get some free stuff and feel involved , not just the people who want to compete against each other.sorry but i could not think of a way to give away this stuff and make it fair
    i have already been given a bunch grief about giving away a gun and now this too. if you can imagine after a summer of playing garbage man the more grief i get about it the more of a slap in the face it becomes .

    it all seemed like a fine idea at one time but not so much now
    sorry just needed to vent

    for those that show i might just have some stuff that might just get given away to those that help . ill be there one way or the other
