Raffles??

[Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967]

I'm sure I heard something on the radio news today about a proposal to limit firearms raffles in California.

 

Is anyone aware of such a movement?  I cannot find any mention online, but what I believe I heard was something like a limit of three raffles per year.

 

I surely hope some reporter was mistaken; this could really put a bind on organizations like Ducks Unlimited, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, and a host of others.

 

Hm.  I must have missed the reports about those dastardly duck hunters committing bank holdups and mass shootings with newly won Browning Citori's and the like - after the requisite ten-day "cooling off" period, of course.

Subdeacon Joe Would be the one who might be able to answer that question.

Just happened to think of this article I saw:  A nonprofit raffled off an AR-15. Now a lawmaker seeks a crackdown on such fundraisers  I wonder if this is what you heard about?  This is the only thing I heard of so if this is not it we'll have to rely on Subdeacon Joe as the TSSD for CA, he has a handle on what has been happening out there.
