An
Ohio-based pro-Second Amendment group is employing a clever
turn-about catchphrase to combat Democratic Party presidential
candidate Beto O’Rourke’s infamous “Hell, yes, we’re going to
take your AR-15!” rant.
The
Buckeye Firearms Association is hosting a “Hell, yes, we’re going
to raffle off an AR-15” on-line raffle. Tickets cost $25 each and a
maximum of one thousand tickets are to be sold.
The
Association noted in its press release as to how “There are
millions of law-abiding Americans who believe in something called the
Second Amendment.’’
“And
not only are we NOT going to let you take our AR-15s, we're NOT going
to let you become President. Because anyone who would seek to so
brazenly infringe on our rights doesn't deserve our votes.
“Furthermore, in
honor of your visit to Ohio for the Oct. 15 CNN / New York Times
Democrat presidential debate, we're going to raffle off a
locally-manufactured AR-15. Are we serious?
"HELL,
YES WE'RE GOING TO RAFFLE OFF AN AR-15!"
Up
for grabs is a
Faxon
Firearms FX-5500 Ultralight AR-15
in 5.56 NATO with a 16" Barrel, weighing in at just 4.95 lbs. It
includes a permanently attached 3-Port muzzle brake which meets the
NFA 16" minimum barrel length requirement, 13” Streamline
carbon fiber handguard, and a lightweight bolt carrier group.
Also
included is
a Franklin Armory binary trigger, a Magpul 60-round magazine,
and 2 Mapgul PMAG Gen3 40-round magazines.
“Other
goodies” include a Trijicon reflex sight, 300 Rounds of
Federal ammo, a 5.11 back pack and rifle case, plus a "Brothers
in Arms" shirt, some Black Rifle Coffee, and a couple mugs”
with our warmest sentiments,” the release says.
The
entire prize adds up to a retail value of $2,875.
Proceeds
support Buckeye Firearms Association and Buckeye Firearms Foundation,
“which will work tirelessly to relegate you and your condescending,
radical, un-American ideas to the dustbin of history.”
The
winning number will be determined by the Ohio Lottery’s Pick 3
drawing. You may purchase as many tickets as you want.
The
raffle will end when all tickets are sold. The drawing date will be
announced after the raffle has been officially closed.
See
complete rules and terms at the bottom of this page. Only
Ohio residents age 21 and older may participate.
