TAG Members…Let’s See What We’re Made Of…Please Help

I just got this email and it really did a number on me. Some of you on here know I try to help people out as much as I can when they can’t afford my services…Here is a shooter who has really fallen on hard times.
I just called his home and spoke with his Grandson and it sounds very legit to me.
Here is his email to me with his permission…..

Hello Public Relations: Hunting season is over and I’m looking for help with a Air Rifle. I don’t know all that much about BB or pellet guns. I am in need of a little help. My problem is I am 57 and I have Lou Gehrig’s Disease aka ALS Disease. ALS knows no boundary’s,it can effect you too. Although I am fighting my ALS I continue to Deer Hunt with my sons and friends. My determination to hunt even with many setbacks has got the attention of others. Last year my County Chapter of National Wild Turkey Federation purchased a HQ-100 Disable Rifle Rest for me to be able safely shoot and practices with. This year ecopeland@texasarc.com Austin Texas Safari Club International purchased a custom off road power wheelchair and scope camera to help me enjoy my hunting better. I need your company’s help. I am looking for away to fight my board-em, and to keep from thinking about all of my problems. I was told by friends to get a AIR RIFLE. You see my ALS has taken my ability to talk, walk or stand, wash or dress myself, and other jobs only a loving wife and family would do. I look just like you or another normal person, only I’m wheelchair bound. My brain is not effected by my ALS, only my body muscles. The enclosed pictures show me with my new hunting equipment from NWTF & SCI Clubs. Does your air guns work for Disable Shooters? Air guns have changed allot since I shot one last. I saw a pig killed with one on TV they must be powerful now. Have you ever Sponsored a Disable Shooter with a air gun? Do you have any program in place that would help me acquire a air gun? A demo, returned, refurbished, damaged wood or scratched air gun will be fine. Sponsorship is my only available way to enjoy your Air Guns. There is no place on the Internet that is to help me a ALS person. I am forced to compete with all other Disable or Challenged Shooters for the little help that is to be offered. I have been offered guided club hunts but I have turned them down when I was told that my name was mixed in with other Disabled young hunters. Just to shoot is fun for me. I can provide Documentation of my ALS Disease from my Neurologist Dr. I am registered with the Muscular Dystrophy Association in Mississippi where we live. Our income is my disability income only. I would like this to be considered as a act of compassion for a lifelong outdoors person. I can not talk but my wife “Laureen” answers all phone calls at {601}*******. I answer all emails at terry*******.com. In closing I ask for your help, support and human compassion on this matter of a Air Gun. Thank You Terry D Vann

I would really like to make this happen and give something back for a fellow shooter.
I can donate parts and as much cash I can afford but I do need your help.
Anything will be appreciated.

I posted this quickly without much of a plan right now so please tell me what you think.

Thanks, Tony
