Some time back, Dick Thompson offered a hunt to a Wounded Warrior. USMC Dan Henderson was selected from a list of worthy candidates. We have begun taking up donations, both for the hunt expenses for this young Hero and to purchase a New Ruger Bisley 44 special for him. I thought some of you here on Castboolits might wish to participate. Thanks for reading this.

My bride and I have two kiddos that have been going into and, thankfully, out of harm's way for the last twenty years or so.

Retirement is close and the only dings have come from training. We would be honored to participate.

Where would be of the most benefit to this, our Wounded Warrior?
The trip or the revolver?

Thank you for this.

Fermin, I got home and registered here. If I get a check that says wounded warrior hunt on it, that is where it will go. If it says sixgun on it, that is where it will go and I will post the zipcode here as Fermin has done above. I am in contact with 2 dogs regularly so he will know what we all are doing. Steve

Being on SS with no COL increase, I can't donate. But I would love to take a wounded warrior hunting. I would take ALL of them if I could.
My life would be complete if I could just hug the great men!
The current POTUS is ruining us and our warriors in favor of illegals and terrorist countries. I really am afraid to spend any of the little savings I have left.
This is what we face. These are the people that vote. I can't buy ONE lobster. Have fear my friends and go VOTE.

Because of the efforts & great generosity of people like Fermin, Rob at Simply Rugged, Colt Firearms, Lipsey's, Belt Mountain, Bill F. over in Colorado & a whole bunch of other folks this is going to be one great experience for Dan Harrison, our wounded warrior winner. He is currently state side waiting for additional surgery but is still training our Marines. His story is very humbling & it will be a wonderful experience having him in our home. Thanks to all of you!
