Some of you know that I am a huge proponent for our veterans whether NG, prior service or active duty personnel.
I was fortunate enough to have served our great country and have always tried to give a little back whenever I can.

So here’s the deal, 4 or 5 years ago, PSA had a barrel giveaway for veterans and I was the lucky recipient. I am going to pay it forward to a veteran that wants/needs it. Thank you for your service!!!

Here are the particulars, as I said it is a PSA government pencil profile with a 1:8 twist. It has been used for a very short time and is in very good condition with exactly 4) 30 round magazines ran through it. It had a Gisselle low profile gas block on it and the barrel is dimpled/drilled for that model gas block. Also there is a scratch on the barrel extension next to the barrel alignment pin that happened while I was removing it from the upper receiver. A2FS and crush washer is included. See pics.

This giveaway is slated for veterans only, if you cannot prove your military status then do not enter this giveaway. No stolen valor will be tolerated!!!
All that’s needed to enter is post this phrase “In it to win it”
I would prefer a F2F meeting to shake the hand of the veteran if possible but if it’s to far away I’ll ship it for free.

EDIT!!!
To spread this out I’ve decided to draw two names.

And the winners are:

1st drawn gets my 16” barrel Toys in the Toy box
2nd drawn gets the 20” barrel far from par28

I will have my youngest granddaughter draw names from a hat (I’m old school) on Friday evening, November 11th (Veterans Day) and will post it here along with contact to the winner.

Good luck and thank you all for your service! :usa:

Not in, however I gotta ask the caveman...is this open to current servicemen?
I'm asking for my nephew who is a sub-mariner currently on a fast attack vessel. I've been tasked with helping him put together a rifle. He would not be able to shake a hand or kiss a baby until he's on leave at the end of this month.

"In it to win it", but I'd like my entry to go to this guy, please, if that's acceptable. You draw my name, it goes to him.
