Favorite ACGG Raffle Firearm?
The other night I was looking down through the list of past raffle firearms that have been raffled at the annual ACGG gathering and I still can't pick out one favorite. I can't decide between number 1 and number 9. I am curious what others would pick as their favorite. No right or wrong answer, they are all winners, just your own personal favorite.

Here is the list of them.

#17, the 404 Mauser. IMHO, the poster child for what all custom Mausers should look like.

Wow, what a challenge. Those little photos on the website are a real tease.

While they're all magnificent, my vote goes to #12. It's a special set indeed.

An honorable mention goes to #4, the Blackburn Enfield Rigby.



cheers,

I really like the Waldron 270 #3 and the mannlicher by Roger and Al at #5. The reality is I would take anyy of them. They are all wonderful.

I like #3 with the stockwork by Dale Goins, but the #17 .404 could warm a spot in my heart too. Great examples of American craftsmanship all.

congomike, I agree completely and that rifle went to a guy in the NE and he was a deer hunter only. Wish we could have pictures of that rifle to look at again. I bought 25 tickets for that gun.

It's one of my favorites in that I like the wood,photo etc...It does not score high were it should.We can't even see the whole rifle and tell if it's good.

They are of course all nice in their own way but #4 would be my choice if I could choose to take one home with me.
