The “Green Mountain Boys Gun” will be at the
Federation Booth at the Yankee Sportsmen’s Classic

The ?Green Mountain Boys Gun? is being raffled by the The Vermont Federation of Sportsmen?s Club to raise funds for Vermont National Guard members and their families.
The Green Mountain Boys Gun is a NRA ?Operation Enduring Freedom? 9 mm Beretta pistol that is a more finely blued and embellished version of the service sidearm of our deployed troops.

The ?Operation Enduring Freedom? series is a Beretta onetime production run made for the NRA Foundation. Only 2,500 such pistols created.

All of the profits from the sale of the raffle ticket will be given to the Vermont?s National Guard families.

The raffle ticket contains an addressed postcard, with a George Washington stamp, containing the message to Vermont National Guard members and their families: ?We Support, We Appreciate You, We Will Not Forget You?

The purchase of a ?Green Mountain Boys Gun? raffle ticket is not only a chance to win a very collectable firearm. It is an act of supporting our Guard members with funding and telling them by the postcards we stand with them, as they have stood up for us.
