| We spend money for our own ARs what about doing a group buy for the troops. I saw the post about the vortex flash hidders and that got me thinking. What if we were able to send the troops a care pack of sorts. We have a ton of members here and group buys happen all the time. This does not have to be AR stuff or it can be. I dont know anything about sending things to the troops. If we can get some members involved, those who know the process then Im willing to throw in some green. |

Best to get with a recruiter of your choice. Find a unit in theater and send it to them your self. I have done a couple group ones and there more pain than there worth.
To date I have sent over 20 packages. Mostly real deal field stuff they need and not candy , socks and magazines. Though they can use those to an extent. Nothing like a good pair of quality sunglasses, overseas phone cards, leatherman tools, Marlboro reds, etc. to make there day. No porn, booze or perishables. |
