Raffles & drawings

Main gun raffle

Entry is by patron ticket. You must be present at the drawing to win, and the winner completes a background check before transfer, the same as any other lawful firearm purchase.

In 2026 the prize was a Weatherby Vanguard Obsidian .270 valued above $650.

50/50 cash raffle

$1 a ticket, or six for $5. Drawn at 2:00 PM on Saturday. You do not need to be present to win.

The 2026 pot paid out $367 in cash.

Vendor table raffle

A thank-you to the dealers who fill the floor: every table purchased earns an entry into a separate drawing held during the show.

Proceeds from all three raffles fund the association's youth programs.

Beyond the tables

More than a gun show

The show is the association's one gathering of the entire year, and we treat it that way. Around the trading floor there is a weekend of food, fellowship and tradition that members plan their calendars around.

  • Friday evening meal — setup night supper for members and vendors. For 2027 we are changing the menu and the layout so it runs calmly and everyone actually gets a seat.
  • Saturday catered dinner — the members and dealers dinner at 5:30 PM, with more menu choices in 2027 to accommodate dietary needs.
  • Sunday Cowboy Church — an open-air service at 8:00 AM in the Little Wind Center, open to everyone.
  • Free youth shooting range — run with the National Wild Turkey Federation. See the youth shooting range.
  • ATMs on the floor — two monitored machines, one in each hall, so cash is never a walk away.
