Best Handgun Picture Contest

Post by HydNawab » Wed Mar 10, 2010 1:23 am

Hi Guys

I thought of doing something interesting. I am posting a best picture contest on this forum for which I will be the judge.(So please refer to me as 'Your Honour' hence forth) :stupid:

OBJECTIVE: To post a picture of either a revolver or a pistol or both.

PRIZE: First Place: Rs.2000/- Second Place: Rs.1000/-

RULES:

1. The pictures have to be of handguns either belonging to you or your family or one of your friends.

2. Only one revolver picture and one pistol picture is allowed per member.

3. The picture cannot be plagiarized from the internet.

4. Since I have self proclaimed my self to be a judge here, I cannot be a part of the contest neither can any of my family members(Duh!)

5. The contest ends on 15th of March 2010(Monday) by 12 Noon.

6. The winner will be announced by 6PM on Monday.

7. There has to be atleast 20 pictures posted for any member to claim the price. (REVOKED)

8. The picture should not have been posted on any other forum before.

9. Price money to Indian members shall be made through their respective accounts and International members shall be made through paypal.

10. Please note that this contest has been sponsored by yours truly so I reserve the right to select the winner and runner up.

IMP NOTE: THIS IS JUST FOR FUN SO NOT HARD FEELINGS, PERSONAL VENDETTAS, THREATS, ETC., :wink: AT THE END OF THE COMPETITION.

Please contact me in case of any questions.

I am hoping the Mods will allow this contest!

Cheers

Ashar

Ahh.. Sorry buddy! I am sure it would take a prize in the air pistol category!

Where are the pictures guys? No one interested in bagging some change? I might have to change rule 7 from 20 pictures to 10 pictures minimum.
