We have a winner!

Marine Veteran Cpl. Bass who attended the informal Marine Birthday cake cutting celebration on November 10th has come away with the highest bid for the Gartfovets Henry Rifle.

The Rifle has traveled over 4500 miles with me to over 50 events since May 20, 2022, in support of Gartforvets.org.

The Capatin is happy that a fellow Marine stepped up to bid and win this commemorative Golden Boy Henry rifle honoring all our military services. The rifle auction will help support the campaign to cross the USA May 23 to July 26, 2023, in order to raise funds for T2T.org.

The rifle a .22 caliber limited commemorative rifle has all the military services represented on the forestock and old glory on the buttstock.  With engraving on the receiver she is all American and top quality.  I love the slogan Henry uses that saysMade in America or not made at all“.
