    That's all you can do.

    If I'm reading it correctly, and there will be 27 winners, I don't see how they can make money selling just 100 tickets.

    I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it all plays out. (no pun intended)

    I will ask this question again. If they sell thousands than why does it say
    "Tickets are only $20.00 / 100 sold" at the bottom of their webpage?

    I'm not complaining, just curious. Like someone else said, they don't understand how they would make any money that way. I'm still gonna buy some in May if they do that again!!

    It's still the same odds as if they only sold 100...
    Look at it this way it is 100 tickets but they sell multiples of each one.

    Correct. Think of it as separate pools, each pool only have persons assigned numbers 1-100. So if 5 pools sell out there will be 5 winners with the same number.

    Number check. From the people that have posted I see 2 - 027's Check your numbers and let me know if they are correct.
    4570inMD has 027 as does Atec. Who has which one??? Just want to keep the list correct.

    BTW: for all concerned I did finally get my winning gun from 2011's Glock A Day. G21 Gen4 with night sights.

    EDIT: I hope rmiddle wins... just saying. They must have done multiple runs of tickets again this year.

    There are only three winners for each run of 100 tickets. The number that hits and the tickets that are +13/-13 from that number.

    So say (trying to make this easy) ticket number 026 hits whoever has the tickets with 026, 013, and 039 would win. Only those tickets since only three tickets can have those exact numbers. The vouchers have a cash value of $400 according to the website. So for every 100 tickets they raise $2000 and pay out a maximum of $1200. So $800 in return towards the cause.

    Now in the event of multiple reems of tickets, like they have done in the past, there will be more winners but obviously more tickets sold. Talking to the organizers this year during GaD I know they typically do two to three reems of tickets for every drawing.
