    I will definitely have to attend this event. I was going to contact Ryan at Roby's Bullseye and see if they had heard when the event was going to take place. Thanks for the info.

    What all extras do you get buying the $100 pack? I checked the website for events but it didn't say.Thanks
    With the 100 pack at the banquet here in indy you receive dinner, 1 chance @ a johnson safe, 10 tickets towards one of the firearms thats in the merchandise catalog and 50 chances towards everything else like gps unit, tumblers, cleaning kits etc. Though if you just buy the dinner package they will have other raffles set up for other guns. its definitely worth the 100 IMO. Plus the have a live auction which there were some pretty good deals had.

    It will be very similar to what dubsac posted. We have a committee meeting next week, that will finalize the details. We really work hard to put on a fun event. I will post the specifics right after the meeting. The $100 pack is well worth the investment. A co-worker from the base, has won firearms, two years in a row.

    These banquets are great fun. They raise money for good causes (youth shooting and firearm safety), and it's a great way to show your support for the shooting sports.

    It's also a decent chance to win a nice firearm, or two, or three... I've not only seen it, I've DONE it!

    I attended my first FNRA banquet 8 years ago. I bought the $100 "Bucket Pack" of raffle tickets. I didn't expect to win anything, I never did, until that night.
    I walked away with a beautiful Norinco SKS w/ spike bayonet AND a brand new Mossberg 500 combo in 12ga. w/ a 24" slug barrel (ported w/ rifle sights) and a 28" bird barrel, also ported.

    That was 8 years ago. I have attended the banquet in my area, Tippecanoe Co., every year since. For the past 6 years my business has been a sponsor, and for the past 4 years I've been on the banquet committee for Tippecanoe.

    Last September I won a Chiappa 1911 in the sponsors drawing. There has been at least 1 firearm won from "my table(s)" EVERY YEAR I'VE ATTENDED! Tables only seat 9!
    One of my guests won a Kimber Custom about 3 years ago. I treated a customer of mine to the banquet dinner 2 years ago. He bought 1-$20 ticket, and won a Savage .22-250 bolt gun.

    It is a great time, that's what I'm trying to say here.

    Good news; I turned in all my sold tickets, and was given four more to sell. Give me a call if you want one. These have to be turned in by Tuesday.

    We are up to 215 sold total. Should be a great time.

    Had a great time tonight. Threedhuntr won a Thompson Center Muzzle Loader rifle. Attendance was around 280. We sold out the show and had great support from the local community. Our goal, next year, is to top out at over 400 attendees.

    After the banquet, the committee was talking about the using the same caterer and moving to a bigger venue for next year. The food was really good and the staff did a great job.
