2010 Video Contest
Do you need a top-quality custom leather holster? How about a magazine or speed loader pouch to match? Of course you do! But, those things can get pricey, right? What if you could get a matched set for free? With a camera and a little creativity, you could do just that – win a free leather holster and reload carrier custom made to your specifications, to fit you and your gun! The only thing better than a good gun rig is a free good gun rig!
Find out more after the break!
So, what do you have to do to win? 1 – Make a video that tells why gunnies should buy their gun leather from Michael at The Holster Site. 2 – Post your video to YouTube and 3 – email the link to me. I’ll submit all of your video entries to the judges and they’ll vote on which video is the best. Your video will be judged by a panel composed of gun bloggers, gun instructors, artists, and a few military personnel. Each one of these people has a great sense of humor. The submissions can be a short action story, or someone presenting an oral argument, or whatever you can think of, as long as they fit within the boundaries. My best advice is that you should let the creative juices flow!
Your video SHOULD contain:
*Convincing material that tells why everyone should buy their gun leather at The Holster Site.
*Creativity. Lots of it, please!
*Original material.
*Entertainment value. The winning entry should be something that I will want to watch over and over again.
*Between 30 seconds and 3 minutes of content.
*Safe gun handling (Remember the four rules).
*Generally family-friendly content – I’m hoping that I get to show all of your videos to my son. Let’s set the limit at PG13.
Conversely, your video SHOULD NOT contain:
*References to other actual holster manufacturers. Please, no bashing.
*Unsafe gun handling. The judges want to see absolutely nothing that makes them cringe due to violation of the four rules.
*R-rated material. If you have to, hint at it instead of showing it. Go Alfred Hitchcock for all I care.
*Illegal actions or activities. This is your burden of responsibility – to make sure that you understand what you legally can and cannot do.
*Copyrighted material.
You should submit your videos from July 26 to September 3. (You can actually submit them before then, but I thought I’d give you a little time to prepare.) Winners will be announced once the panel of judges reaches a decision. We can’t wait to see your videos!
No purchase necessary. If you purchase custom leatherwork from Michael at The Holster Site, it does not increase your chances of winning. Void where prohibited. If you can’t win the prize, I can’t send it to you. Inappropriate videos, or those that do not fit within the guidelines will be disqualified from the contest. The judges and their immediate families can not win the contest.
The prize will be a custom leather holster and/or reload carrier not to exceed $400.00 in combined MSRP value. The leatherwork will be made to fit the gun and/or reload of the winner’s choice (provided I can easily get a replica of the winner’s gun or easily make provisions to build the holster to the winner’s actual gun, and/or in the case of ammunition – easily procure reload(s) or equivalent(s)) to the winner’s specifications. There is no limit to how many videos an individual may submit; however, repetitive duplicate entries will be ignored, and multiple entries that do not conform to the guidelines of the contest will disqualify the entrant. Bottom line: This is supposed to be fun. Use your own common sense and we’ll use ours too.
