Official Rules of the Great Gun Giveaway
No purchase or payment is necessary to enter or win a sweepstakes in the Great Gun Giveaway. A purchase or payment of any kind will not increase your chances of winning.
By entering and participating in a sweepstakes in the Great Gun Giveaway each participant accepts and agrees to these Official Rules and the decisions of the Sponsor (as defined below), which are binding and final in all respects. This offer is subject to applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations and is void in Rhode Island and where prohibited or restricted by law.
Giveaway Description
Davidson's, Inc., an Arizona corporation, (the "Sponsor") is sponsoring the Great Gun Giveaway, a series of separate monthly sweepstakes games, each of which offers the prize of one firearm as identified and described on ggg.GalleryofGuns.com during the month (each, a "Giveaway"). For each Giveaway, one prize winner will be selected in a random drawing conducted by the Sponsor, from all eligible entries submitted during the month preceding the drawing as described in detail below (the "Giveaway Period"). See "Timing and How to Enter" for details. The approximate retail value of the firearm prize offered in a Giveaway will be listed in the prize description on ggg.GalleryofGuns.com throughout the Giveaway Period. The odds of winning a Giveaway depend on the number of eligible entries received for that sweepstakes drawing.
Eligibility
- Each Giveaway is open only to legal residents of the fifty (50) United States and District of Columbia, 21 years of age or older at time of entry and legally eligible to own and possess a firearm.
- Directors, officers, employees and contractors of Sponsor or its affiliates, and members of their immediate families (i.e., spouse, children, parents, and siblings), are not eligible to participate in any Giveaway.
- Residents of the state of Rhode Island are not eligible to participate in any Giveaway.
- Only one entry will be allowed per household for each Giveaway.
Timing and How to Enter
Timing: Entries for the first Giveaway during the 2023 calendar year will be accepted from Sunday, January 1, 2023, 8:00 AM (Arizona Time) to Tuesday, January 31, 2023 at 11:59 PM (Arizona Time). Entries for the remaining Giveaways of 2023 will be accepted during each Giveaway Period starting 12:00 AM (Arizona Time) on the first day of each month to 11:59 PM (Arizona Time) on the last day of that month. Each eligible participant's entry will be placed into the Giveaway drawing.
Online Entry: There is only one way to enter a Giveaway. Complete the required information on the entry form found at ggg.GalleryofGuns.com. You will be required to provide your first and last name, your email, home address, and phone number, and confirm you are at least 21 years of age or older. A participant must provide Sponsor with accurate information on the entry form. Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify a participant if inaccurate or incomplete information is suspected for any reason. Only one entry will be allowed per household for each Giveaway. Sponsor reserves the right to disqualify any participant for making additional entries into a Giveaway drawing not in accordance with these Rules.
Winner Selection and Notification
A winner for each Giveaway will be selected in a random drawing, conducted by the Sponsor no later than the third business day following the Giveaway Period, from among all eligible entries received by Sponsor during the Giveaway Period.
The winner of a Giveaway will be notified by Sponsor by phone and/or email at the phone number and email address provided on the entry form within seven days following the random drawing. In addition, the winner's name will appear in the winners' list available on ggg.GalleryofGuns.com. Once Sponsor makes an effort to contact a winning participant, the winner must communicate with Sponsor promptly or forfeit the firearm prize, as described below. Sponsor is not responsible if a potential winner notification is not received for any reason or returned as undeliverable. For instance, Sponsor is not responsible if a potential winner does not receive his or her winner notification because inaccurate email or telephone contact information was provided at the time of entry or such information is not current at the time of drawing. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, or fails to reply to the notification email and/or phone message as instructed within thirty (30) days of Sponsor's original notification attempt, he/she automatically forfeits the firearm prize. A winner may decline the firearm prize for any reason and the prize will be forfeited. In the event of any forfeiture, Sponsor may select a new winner following the random drawing process. In addition, after conducting a random drawing, if the Sponsor determines that the firearm prize is not transferrable and/or eligible for ownership in the state or locality of residence of the potential winner based on applicable law, Sponsor will not act upon the results of such random drawing and will undertake another random drawing to select a new winner.
Requirements of the Winner
Upon Sponsor's confirmation of contact, a potential winner is subject to verification by Sponsor whose decisions are final and binding in all matters related to the Giveaway. A participant is not a winner of any firearm prize, even if participant receives notification saying he or she won, unless and until participant's eligibility and compliance with these rules, as well as applicable laws, have been verified and participant has been notified that verification is complete. A winning participant must pass appropriate background check(s), and comply with applicable federal, state and local laws in order to take possession of the firearm prize. Only the winning participant may take possession of the firearm. Transfer of a firearm prize shall be conducted through a firearms dealer that holds a valid federal firearms license (FFL), in strict compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws. At any time prior to fulfillment of the prize, if the winner (i) fails to submit to any required background check(s) for firearm possession, (ii) is barred from obtaining or using a firearm, or (iii) otherwise fails to comply with applicable laws or regulations, or if the firearm prize is not transferrable and/or eligible for ownership based on applicable state or local law, the winning participant will be declared ineligible and the firearm prize will be forfeited. Another winner will be selected to receive the firearm prize, as described above. By entering any Giveaway, you acknowledge that you are not legally prohibited from owning or taking possession of a firearm.
By accepting the prize in any Giveaway, the winner agrees to the use of his or her name in the official, publicly available, list of Giveaway winners, and in certain publicity and advertising of the Sponsor, without compensation, as described in "Personal Information/Privacy" below.
