Airsoft Related Challenges (with prizes)

Janus · July 9th, 2010, 18:23

I have a crapton of guns I never use. But instead of selling them, because that'd be boring..

...I'd like to sort of hold some airsoft-related contests with them with a small entry fee and the prize being one of my guns.

I'd like to know how many people would be interested in such a thing. For example, the first one I was thinking would be like a $15 entry fee and make it a "Build a sniper's ghillie suit out of materials solely found at Walmart" (proof of purchase at Walmart and of course, photos of the final product required) and the grand prize winner (selected by a panel of judges) would receive a KJW M700 Takedown (lightly used). I'd cover my own expense up to 75% of the price I would ask for it (approximately fair market value) and donate the rest to a worthy charity (probably United Way.)

If I get a lot of interest, I'mma go ahead (with the ASC administration's blessing) and do this up in the fall (because I'm deploying for a bit in the meantime.)

If not, I'll go back to my well in the basement and tell it to rub the lotion on its skin.

Worst luck ever.

Yeah... Just finished mine too, mostly from Walmart. Terrible terrible timing indeed!

Sell it and donate the percentage you planned to Charity instead. Charging admission to a hokey "challenge" will accomplish nothing but create headaches and disputes.

Trust me, no good deed goes unpunished.
