In the spirit of giving during the Holiday Season...the XD Forum Staff would like to announce a XD Firearm Trivia Contest for NON-PREMIUM members of the community...

For the next 12 days ( Dec 13th thru Dec 24th ) I will post a firearm trivia question at 12 noon EST each day...


The first 12 NON- Premium Members to correctly answer the trivia question of the day ( time/date stamp of post ) will have their names tossed into a hat.

** Members CANNOT submit their correct answers until exactly 6pm EST the same day of the question...in order for everyone to see the question and have a fair opportunity to answer **


Voting will be cut-off at 1145 PM EST and then my lovely daughter will pick one (1) name from the 12 names in the hat and I will announce the winner by 12 MIDNIGHT that same day.


The lucky winner will receive the gift of a Premium Membership (for 1 year) courtesy of the XD Forum Staff !!


===============================================

Again...Thanks to all the membership for making the XD Forum "the best forum on the Internet"...!!
