UPDATE FROM DEPUTY CRAIG CHAMBERLIN: There has been some questions about how the first prize winner of the
raffle will receive their prize. The Grant County Sheriff has ensured his
agency will verify the winner of the Smith and Wesson is eligible to own a
firearm. If that person is not eligible, there will be additional drawings
until an eligible winner is picked. Once an eligible winner is chosen, they
will have to go through all standard purchasing procedures through
Tri-State-Outfitter's in Moses Lake, Washington before receiving their
prize.
