Ever since seeing the destruction of hurricane  Harvey, Mrs. ALG and I have been trying to figure out how to help.  I hate giving money to a large organization and not really knowing how specifically it will be put to good use and we just don’t know anyone personal in the Houston area.

But this weekend an email came from a good friend of mine that is retired former Army SF.  Some of his buddies were raising money through the JSSOF (Joint Service Special Operations Fund) for the Houston PD SWAT Dive Team.  

The HPD Dive team has been struggling with old equipment, specifically the need for 3 Zodiac boats to replace their old ones they have to keep patching.  Also dive suits since some guys are just diving in their BDUs.  The next two weeks are critical times for these guys as they are doing a lot of body recovery.

This is a golden opportunity to make a specific impact, help the good guys and help the devastated Houston area.

I am coming here because I want to give my brothers and sisters of ARFCOM an opportunity to join us in helping HPD.

Geissele Automatics is going to donate 350 SSA-E triggers and open up a special purchase of these to ARFCOM.  They will be sold at a special price of $150 and every penny will go to HPD.  If we sell all of them we will raise $52,500, just about enough to buy all three boats and ship them to Houston.

Also, every purchaser of a trigger will be entered into a drawing for three Geissele guns.  Yes, you read that right.  Three Geissele rifles.

Now we don’t build and sell guns and as we are solidly in the accessory part of the firearms market.  But we actually manufacture guns for special projects and R&D.  So we are going to take three Geissele made in house lowers, special uppers and all sorts of wonderful goodies that have never seen the light of day.  Our new REK – Reliability Enhancement Kit – Geissele own BCG, made in house special autofrettage bolt, enhanced carrier, colbalt cam pin, 13-8 extractor (all Picatinny DSL coated of course by NCC) and all kinds of other stuff made by the Geissele crew.

We have reached out to friends in the industry for stuff we don’t make.  Daniel Defense will be supplying their killer barrels, Surefire their excellent muzzle devices and lights.  We have hit up an optics supplier and sling maker but have not heard back yet, but trust me, these guns will be tricked out Super Precision to the max.

Not sure just yet how the God Bless Texas trigger sale will happen but we will put this together tomorrow when my teammates get in the plant.  Details will be forthcoming in this thread and original post.

UPDATE 1




Blue Force Gear is in with slings and goodies.

Vortex is in with three of their 1-6 Razor HDs.  A great scope!

Ok here are the rules:

*One trigger only unless we don't sell them all within two days.
*Guns get shipped to FFL only.
*If you are in a banned state you will only get the upper, not lower assembly.
*If you can't take the upper in your banned state, you will get only the parts you can take.
*No substitutions.

It going to take about 10 days for dreamy-cowgirl to build all these guys so shipping will not be immediate.
Guns will be built up over the next several weeks or so.
