Help a fellow win a weatherby rifle

Post by JohnnyReb »

Guys,

Can you find a couple minutes to register on weatherby nation and vote for a video? Backstory below. "Our" guy is a quadriplegic trying to do something nice for his friend. The other 2 guys who are close or ahead are just trying to get something free. Really, Frank deserves this rifle, while the other guys just made flashy videos. Watch the 1 minute video. At least do that. If you don't think its worth a couple minutes to vote for him, well, you don't have to. If, like me, this story makes your eyes water a bit, please vote. You can vote once a day. Pass it on to other forums, email, whatever. We gotta help this guy win.

Guys,
Every once in a while something comes along where we can give back to those that give all. There is a giveaway for a Weatherby rifle going on right now and I have viewed many of the videos. There is one that sets out to me. It is a disabled guy asking for his buddy that has been taking care of him for the last 22 years, as he is paralyzed from the neck down. He is on a ventilator and trys to talk at first but then has his nurse translate his statement that he has told her. Many of the video are about "ME" from people that have stories, but not so fitting as this gentleman. You can vote once a day until february 15. Please consider this guys video to vote for.

(Shhh... Don't tell anyone, I was sworn to secrecy... :twisted: Weatherby is the company that set my barrel and headspaced the bolt on my custom 94 back in '88! :wink: :P I'm convinced there's a closet levergunner or two workin' there!)

That's straight to the video - I hope. 2511 last time I looked. :) There's as good a reason to get a Weatherby to someone as I've ever heard. What Frank REALLY needs is a good levergun though... :D

Don't forget that you can vote once each day... When's this contest going to be over???
