Each weekly winner has a one-in-seven chance of taking home this sweet prize.

So, with less than 12 hours left to enter, we encourage you to get your name in the draw, because the odds are good! As a reminder you get two entries for posting a firearm, optic or firearm accessory for sale on our classifieds and one entry for responding to a listing. You can earn a maximum of three entries each week.

The next deadline is Sunday, March 13th at 6 pm PST!

Below are the step by step instructions and full contest rules:

There are two ways to enter, with a maximum of three entries per individual per week.

Step 1: Head on over to our classified listings.

Step 2: Post a firearm, optic, firearm accessory or ammunition listing for sale. That'll get you two entries.

Step 3: Find something you want to buy, and respond to the ad. That'll get you one more entry.

Step 4: Do the above by 6 pm PST every Sunday, when we will draw our weekly winner.

Wait until March 21st at noon, when we'll draw our grand prize winner!

Seriously. That's it. No entry forms. No complicated registration process. No asking permission to look at classified ads. The winner will be contacted via the email address used to list and respond to ads, and the winning individual's ads and responses will be verified as legitimate, while any individuals found trying to abuse the system through multiple email addresses will be removed form the contest and barred from further entry. Full contest rules follow below.

As always, we strongly encourage all of our classified users to confirm buyer and seller identities with the Firearms Program to prevent fraud and illegal trafficking in firearms.
