Need a Gun? WF Hockey Raffle May Have What You Need - Valley News Live - KVLY/KXJB - Fargo/Grand Forks

Need a gun or want a gun? Good luck. Stores everywhere say they are having a hard time getting their shelves stocked. But if you tend to be on the lucky side, a local fundraiser could put a firearm in your hands.

Guns. Firearms. Semi-automatics. For many this may be as close as you're going to get. But cal Helgeson with the West Fargo Hockey Association says that doesn't have to be the case. "With the shortage of guns, we have secured all of our guns," says Helgeson. You see these tickets are the key to winning one of 200 guns. "We have a full list," says Helgeson.

Guns that are hard to get can be found on the raffle. "More difficult ones are on here," says Helgeson. Helgeson says they have seen people all across the country purchase one of these.

With the shortage of guns taking place, the West Fargo hockey association says they don't mind the popularity of the raffle because it helps them with their shortage of ice rinks.

"With 20 percent increase this year, we have a big need for ice," says Helgeson. He says every ticket sold here will not only help you get one stop closer to one of these, but the association will be closer to getting what they need.

 The association hopes to raise $90,000 with the raffle. It will happen on march 15th. To purchase one of the tickets, head to Scheels on 45th street in Fargo.
