Uh oh! You might need an Ne Gaming license. Lottery? Raffle? There is a significant difference.

Or, is it a Gift Enterprise?

Remember, it is not what you think the law is, it is how those who enforce it read the law.

Back from dove hunting now.
No doves anywhere today. At least, not where we were. However, some very light rain. So we left; came home. (We were not duck hunting.)
But I did schlepp along the XDM40 to the Boonies. And did take a mag full of reloads.
So I shot about half a magfull into the dirt bank just to test function. Which it did just fine do. I then quit shooting because it seemed like the right thing.
No Nebraska Game and Parks game wardens showed up; neither did anyone from the Nebraska Gaming Commission.
Glad to have my nice XDM40 back and working again after the KA-BOOM. Never thought it could be saved, all that frame stuff bulging out the sides and all that. Thought it wuz surely a Goner. [My Glock coulda never recovered from such an event, right?]
So far as I'm concerned, this story is now completely told.
