Gentlemen, Tom speaks of assistance and I am a man of action.

Ed and Terry will need something....I don't care what it is but something insurance will not cover. It might be something they need it might be something they want.

I propose to hold a raffle and advertise it on both Forums.

Ellie and I will put up a Genuine Krieghoff loading tool, Eagle 2.
As well, we will be offering a set of complete Artillery leathers made by me in my shop. Your choice of color, light brown, dark brown or black, cream or orange linen thread. That will be everything except the holster and stock. Includes: Carry strap and steel studs, boot and keeper strap, toe strap , top closure strap, four brass washers & screws and the large steel washer and screw to attach the boot keeper strap and toe strap to the wrist of the stock. This will all be made with steel hand hammered rivets and studs. Just as the Germans would have done at the turn of the Century. A real Museum piece even if I do say so. I will even fit the whole thing to your stock and holster if you wish to send it to me.

(If you want to see photos of either of these items, either email me or volunteer to post them on here!)

There will be two (2) winners in this raffle. The first ticket drawn out of a coffee can will get first choice. The second ticket drawn gets the remaining prize. Any ticket buyer will have TWO chances to win!

I am using movie tickets that are numbered...I have 80 of them. I know that out of the thousands of members both Forums have we can sell all 80 tickets.

I will not complicate this as I want it to happen as soon as possible. Ed and Terry might need some quick cash. It will run for ten days only. However many tickets I can sell in ten days will be what Ed and Terry will receive minus any Pay Pal expenses. Ellie and I are donating these two items totally free as our way of saying thanks for the many years of help Ed has given us all.

You can send the price of a ticket, $20.00 by pay pal or send it quick by snail mail. Check or money order if fine by me!

Pay Pal.... magicbelle@yahoo.com Include all pertinent contact information.

(Once Paypal notifies me of receipt of payment, I will send you a confirmation, I will attach 1/2 a ticket to the paypal notice, and put the other 1/2 in the coffee can; therefore it will be a "blind drawing".)

If you send a donation for a ticket via snail mail; the same thing will happen, however please include your email address so that I can notifiy you that I have received payment!

Snail Mail Address: J. Burney, 13320 45th Lane, Yuma, AZ 85367
Please indicate that this is for the "Ed/Terry Tinker Drawing". Include all pertinent contact information.

I hope all of you know me well enough to know I would run this honestly. My reputation is worth more than what little this will bring in for Ed and Terry.

So, let the raffle begin! Scrape up 20 bucks and try to win one of these great prizes! Even if you are not a winner you will know you gave to a great cause.

The drawing will be 4PM Mountain time on March 22nd.

Thanks, Jerry & Ellie Burney[B]
