Jim Elliott, retired plant manager from Ruger's Prescott
facility, donated this SR1911 the next day. We raised over 14,000 dollars at Bucky O'Neill Guns with a raffle for this gun alone. Several other customers donated Sr1911s a Bushmaster lower, a complete Wyndham AR, a G19 a NIB Ed Brown Exotic holsters custom challenge coins 20 sets of these grips were made by a retired stock maker and donated etc. I am not sure of the combined totals raised but it was 100 percent passed through to the families of the Hotshots. Simply Rugged Holsters donated towards this and one of our employees won a SR1911 as well. I am going to have "Scott Norris" engraved on this pistol.
