JOIN US - We Serve Those Who Serve!

SINCEREST THANKS to everyone who have joined us in the past and got involved - we hope that you will choose to do so again!!

A special THANKS to the AR15.com Staff for making the Store available for online ticket purchases, you guys make a HUGE difference!!



....to quote the Executive Officer of a Stryker platoon we supported throughout their tour in Iraq ...

"You all do more than just slapping a yellow ribbon on the back of a truck"



A brief history of how we came to be as described in a compilation of posts by GR8TWYT:

TEAM RANSTAD was so named by the troops of the 1-91st Airborne Cavalry - Recon/Sniper Platoon “Hatchet”. RetMAC and I served together aboard the USS Spruance (DD-963). RetMAC was the ship’s Chief Master-Arms and
I was part of the team he trained for the ship’s self-defense when we were deployed to the Persian Gulf in 1988 to confront Iranian aggression. Upon the ship’s return to the States I met RetMAC's son Nick (who was 9-years old at the time)
during a “Tiger Cruise” where sons of the ship’s crew were allowed onboard for a 3-day cruise.

I left the Navy shortly after; RetMAC continued his career until he retired after 20-years of service. In 2007 we reconnected on a Navy website and RetMAC told me that Nick was now grown up and had just deployed with the 1-91st
Airborne Cavalry, Recon/Sniper Platoon “Hatchet”. The platoon was assigned to an extremely remote Forward Operating Base in the Hindu Kush mountains of northeastern Afghanistan, right on the Pakistani border, with only a river
separating the two. Being a member of ARFCOM I started a forum asking other members if they’d be interested in sending boxes to the platoon - the response was overwhelming! The platoon started to receive boxes filled with good
old American treats, movies, books, socks, heat packs, baby wipes, hibachi’s, field showers, etc., not only from ARFCOM members - but also equipment and gear from industry partners like Battery Station; LaRue Tactical; Tactical Girls
calendars; Tactical Night Vision; and the list goes on and on. Christmas that year resulted in over 250 boxes!! A Chinook helicopter was once filled with nothing but boxes for the platoon!! This resulted in the troops of the platoon saying
if they needed anything…“Let Ranstad know … his Team will help!”

Thus, we became who we are and we wear that title proudly! We have continued to do the same since. It has become our calling, so to speak. We have continued to “adopt” frontline units as they rotate in and out of both Iraq,
Afghanistan, or any overseas frontline AO - from ALL branches of service. And we do what we do - accepting that name as the ultimate compliment .

THIS is what we do...
(Nick "SnakeaterM24" – FOB Bostic – Afghanistan Christmas 2007)
Just SOME of the boxes they received!





Most ARFCOM types know by now that Nick currently holds the recognized US Army sniper record with a confirmed kill at 1.3 miles with his Barrett .50 rifle, making him #3 in the sniper world for distance. Including two interviews he did with Radio Free ARFCOM, you can now find all the other media coverage; his National Geographic segement in "Snipers, Inc."; his Ghille suit being put on permanent display in the NRA Museum, etc., at www.lastrosehomeport.com/sniper.html thanks to a retired Navy Chief who met Nick on the same Tiger Cruise and who has followed his accomplishments since.

The popular G2 - combined with the LT-707 Inline Light Mount, this high-intensity incandescent flashlight is similar to the 6P but with a tough polymer body.
Puts out a smooth, brilliant, pre-focused tactical-level beam bright enough to temporarily blind and disorient a person by impairing out his night-adapted vision.

(Winner contact RetMAC)



LaRue Tactical RISR™ / CTR Combo
1 Prize
Value: $140.00
Donated by an extraordinary bunch of "little birds" who are dedicated to supporting our Troops as well.



Perfect for those who don't already own a CTR! It's a fact that some AR's need a cheek riser to get proper cheek weld for raised scopes or rifles with raised rails.
It's another fact that standard AR charging handles require a lot of travel, making it impossible to charge a rifle without moving a collapsible stock all the way to the rear.
The LaRue RISR solves these problems.

ETA

I've gotten reports that my bolt action pens might have a design or manufacturer flaw in the metal parts. Until I get them back for inspection I'll not take a chance on giving them away. [ETA, heard back from my supplier, problem is a set screw inside the twist mechanism was not tightened enough at the factory. Nothing broken though I'll keep the pens pictured above and below for the raffel.]I am replacing the above bolt action pens with these



.30 caliber pen that uses a 12 gauge as a cap. All made with double dyed maple burl. Top to bottom Chrome with Green/Yellow, Gold with Red/Yellow, and Gun Metal withRed/Black.

Other pics of same pens:
