.I have a bunch of saltwater fishing mags, some NRA mags, and a couple Clive Cussler books if someone wants them.  We're moving soon so the wife is likely to throw them away unless I lay claim in short order so speak up if you want them.  PM and/or email to my name @gmail.com is the best idea.

Not sure if anybody out there is still willing/able to send out gun mags or anything. But I know that here at ARF Platoon, Camp Taji, we are woefully low on reading material.  And Taji's PX is closing in about 10 days and is out of any periodicals.  Why they close the PX when the base is still running, I dunno.  Nonetheless, if anyone would be willing to ship my platoon some magazines, we'd all be grateful.  We are Bike, Auto, Gun, Sports enthusiasts...just like everyone else

Thanks guys, and just let me know!

If you are deployed I would be happy to drop you a box of fine library material.



That was me!!!!

That inital post asking for old gun magazines snowballed into a magazine fort. The gang at OP OSB loved all the mags I got. I ended up with about two dozen flat rate boxes full of mags and other very useful goodies.  If it werent for ARFCOM then there wouldnt have been any reading material at our small, six tent OP.

I never imagined how many great people we have on this website until I was on the receiving end of the giving. Thanks once again, SGT Styles

I'm a Combat Advisor leading an 6 member Embedded Training Team with the Afghan National Army.  We're part of a larger 110 person Advisor Group here on the outskirts of Kabul, AFG.   I've only been here just over two months and I've only seen one care package come to our Advisor Group and it was like Christmas.  The gun mags went first!  Car mags second!  Also very welcomed were travel/individual wet wipes.  We're with the ANA all day with no way to wash our hands.  Hands get filthy just working in this environment, but we shake some of the nastiest hands 100x a day until our hands are black with something.  For what it's worth, they use their left hand in lieu of toilet paper.  You forget and go to wipe your eye or mouth and it's over.  This might sound odd, but Preparation-H large wipes are great at cleaning places wet wipes are too harsh for since they just have witch hazel in them.  Getting the opportunity to take a hot shower once a week with potable water isn't uncommon.  People would also fight for those Swiffer sweeper dusting cloth refills wet or dry - as it resembles the moon over here.  Dental floss and tooth brushes are welcome sights too.  Me, personally...  I'm craving a Red Bull Cola.  Actually... I'm craving a cold shot of Sauza Hornitos tequila with lime/salt and an ice cold Dos Equis Amber, but I'll have to wait until next year for those. :-)

Go to any post office........they should have USPS APO/FPO Priority Mail flat rate boxes (not the same as regular FRB's).
You can also order them online.

The boxes are free.
Postage runs around $13 I believe.
You need to complete a customs form.

A HUGE thank you to Hayboy for the awesome care package for my Combat Advisor Team!  How many different magazines do you subscribe to?? LOL.  The baby wipes are definitely getting utilized and I smell like baby powder as a result. :-)  And who doesn't like Lifesavers??  Very awesome especially coming from someone who WAS a complete stranger.

I apologize for taking nearly a month to reply––my internet is on the fritz, and I rarely access my subscriptions from my phone.

I'd say the SGNs are from the last six months offhand. Let me know.

I've been wanting to send a package for a while but didn't know where to start.  I've got a freaking crap ton of gun mags and old hot rod mags. My wifes making me clean out the 4ft stack in the living room.  

Can someone post the do's/don'ts and some how to info on shipping to the troops?

How long does it take packages to get there?

*edit*  Used my google-fu and found some answers.

Ehow Sending Packages to the Troops.
