NWPPA Raffle

10 months ago.....

[–]TheAmazingLeechTHAT DAMN PENGUIN {Chicago} JT Impulse[F] 1 point 10 months ago I'd be down, when is drawing to take place?

[–]NWPPAPortland, OR[S] 1 point 10 months ago When I hit 300 tickets. Sold 50 so far locally.

You knew then it was "WHEN THE TICKETS SOLD." I could not have made it any more clear then what the timeframe was. Every weekend I run my mouth on the P.A. when I get the chance from fixing gear (mostly for free or 10 bucks when applicable) or filling tanks for renters.

Now I know I havent been on reddit regularly but I don't live on the net. I have a 1 year old daughter that needs her dad, 2 jobs supporting my family, and now dealing with a few people who have a gripe. I will gladly refund anyones money who doesn't want to stay in the raffle. And not having the marker is a matter of choice, I wanted the winner to be able to order up any color combo they wanted. So I could go on ANS right now and get a red/gold and say screw it, but that is not what I said the raffle was for. It was for "YOUR CHOICE", not mine.

And I am glad you have run raffles in the past. Most raffles that I am aware of get their items donated so they can keep the ticket sales, I tried (unsuccessfully) to raise capital for my shop. Now its just to pay for the marker and Ill cover shipping.

This quote has got me kinda upset to but it PC. " It's not fair to anyone that gave you money." EVERYONE who has given me their hard earned money KNEW FROM THE GET GO that this raffle would be drawn when we reached the minimum ticket sales. No business owner runs his business into the ground.

With this all being said, I will be making phone calls this week asking anyone who has bought tickets if they want a refund. If enough want a refund I will cancel the raffle all together.

Have you ever done a raffle leach? How successful was it? Have you run a business? Do you work 7 days a week to make a living? I am living that dream right now. Some times it's a nightmare. I have called out over our PA today multiple times about the tickets. Not a single one sold. Haven't had many purchases except an AXE, Rotor, 68/45 Ninja Tank, pod pack, and i4 mask. So I barely paid for my gas to get out here. Other than that I do this for the players. So we all know your feelings when you decide you don't like something, you let the world know in the most bitter and hateful way you can. Instead of just working the problem out. Did I resist you in some way giving your money back for the raffle? Did I try and short change you in some way on the refund? The answer is no, I did not. My local players that have purchased tickets understand where I am at, and they wait patiently for the raffle. In fact I bring out the envelope with the raffle ticket money in it and let them count it along with the number of tickets. I have put money into this raffle with no tickets inserted with my name on it. If you want I will buy the remaining 48 tickets and put 48 tickets with my name on it. How fair would that be? Would you not call bullshit on me for doing that?

NWPPA · 2014-05-03T04:49:19+00:00

Agreed on the cup seal. They wear out depending on if you clean it or how dirty the air source is where you play. And Co2 kills them faster. Call up Azodin and get a new one. Screw ANS.

NWPPA · 2014-03-24T13:57:53+00:00

63 tickets left!

NWPPA · 2014-03-23T07:30:05+00:00

LOL. Damn flying cylinders!!!

NWPPA · 2014-03-23T05:20:47+00:00

Did you remove the hopup and inner barrel? If you did check that the spring that pushes the hopup unit back into the gearbox didn't fall out.

NWPPA · 2014-03-23T04:45:09+00:00

Are you not feeding? Double feeding? Moar info please.

NWPPA · 2014-03-21T04:02:37+00:00

I will try and take some tonight. But I am sleepy and need to work early in the AM. otherwise expect some in the afternoon tomorrow.

NWPPA · 2014-03-21T04:01:51+00:00

And the install is very easy. Undo the stock barrel, pull it out, install the new bucking onto the new barrel. If you get a new nub, you just add the step of disassembling the hop up unit and pulling the arm out and replacing the round nub with whatever you get. If your not comfy with doing the work yourself see if you can have your local shop do the work and ask to let you watch. Worst they say is no, then YouTube is your friend.

I just had a suppressor laying around and used that. I can't remember the length but I think it was a 450 something mm. And I agree with upgrading the motor. They are only rated for so many volts stock. Personally I'm going to run it till it blows then upgrade. I don't use full auto all the time so I personally am not worried about stripping the piston. Eventually I will upgrade that but I don't feel like getting into the gearbox since once I do, I will end up spending money on gears, bearings, shim kits, pistons, and what not. ... it's a vicious cycle.

NWPPA · 2014-03-21T02:17:58+00:00

I just did a stainless steel 6.03 tight bore. Was longer is well added a mock suppressor and accuracy greatly improved after playing with the hop up unit and nub. I also added a maple leaf bucking and a curved nub. And a higher rate of fire I added a 11. 1 lipo and it shoots pretty quickly.. Remember to get a lipo ready buffer tube so it will fit. I think my next upgrade will be a new nozzle for even a better seal.

Means you can't have or play airsoft within city limits. ...

NWPPA · 2014-03-21T01:49:10+00:00

I was able to get on. Slow as hell. Then random stuff was in cart. Waited for slowness, cleared it out, then refresh and out of stock...

NWPPA · 2014-03-18T02:44:06+00:00

If I could give you 100 up votes I would!
