In an effort to help support our troops and on behalf of the great people at AdoptASniper.Org, we will be raising money through the auctioning of challenge coins. For those of you unaware of what his group does feel free to check their website out here. All funds raised go directly to getting equipment and needed items to our snipers overseas. These range from basic hygiene items to optics and accessories. The AdoptASniper group is made up of police and military snipers who have made it their mission to ensure their brothers' needs do not go unanswered. Please help us raise a little extra money for them by making donations and buying support items from their site. In addition, we will be auctioning 3 challenge coins and commemorative 9/11 AR15.Com Knives. Please check the news forum for photos and to make a bid! Thanks to the crew at AdoptASniper.Org for all their hard work and to our men and women who provide us with our freedoms! |

OK guys in case you are confused, there are 3 AUCTIONS EACH WITH 1 KNIFE & 1 COIN, I'm referring to them as "groups" to keep it simple that you will be getting one of each item! There are only 3 pairings at this time, although there may be more in the future.  We'll keep track of the top bids in the main subject as well as the previous bid in case something drastic happens. Please only bid if you are serious! If you want to help, but would like to do smaller, please visit the AdoptASniper.Org website and make a donation! |
Don't worry about it.It was in your heart to help,so if you win the bidding,I will add the $175 to your 100, and YOU can have the honor of helping our men on the field!

Thank you, sir. I told my wife about this, and she said she is going to let me spend our anniversary money we got as a gift from her liberal parents to support the Adopt a Sniper cause. She could think of no better way to spend that money from them.  She even pitched in $25 of her "walking around" money for the flagpole for Sgt. Stroh that zitiforbreakfast put together. She's a damned fine woman.

We'll close out the Auction on Sunday night, so get your last minute bids in! |

Hello ladies and gents ... Thanks for all of the support here at 15.com. FYI ... our site at www.AmericanSnipers.org is constantly under attack from God knows who ... trying to bring it down. Which tells me we are pissing people off ... and therefore must be doing a good job. But we often have to make site changes etc. to deal with it all. Thanks for your patience and for putting up with any trouble you might have experienced with the site and or your orders for our products. Hit us offline and we will sort out your problems asap. Best regards, BK |
cool - I guess the coins were from Snipers Online? I didn't ask for any when I sent in the money. |

Yes,those coins must have been sent by AS.org. The knife and coin auctioned will come from AR15.com Thanks to all who bid and congratulations to the three highest bidders (dennysguns,Ry Jones and kallnojoy) for making this a very successful effort to support our snipers!  NOTE: Sorry I was away for 10 days,beginning on the 17th,when the auction was to end
