Last month, SSD infiltrated an agent into the Hot Shots 2013 Calendar Launch (you’ll get to read all about it tomorrow) with the specific task of liberating a signed 2013 limited edition SSD version of the calendar as a prize for a lucky SSD reader. Here it is.
Our man in Manchester stood in line clutching the calendar. Once he made it to the head of the line (and was able to untie his tongue to ask for their help) he secured the signatures of all six calendar models. This year’s Hot Shots calendar is inspired by pinups of the 40s and 50s and they’ve done a bang up job on the bawdy playing cards as well (see the sampling below). And, as always, 50% of proceeds go to military charities.
Grand Prize is the signed limited edition SSD version of the Hot Shots 2013 calendar along with a deck of playing cards.
Eight second prize winners will receive an unsigned copy of the limited edition SSD version of the Hot Shots 2013 calendar along with a deck of playing cards.
To enter for your chance to win:
In the comments section of THIS article on SSD (and nowhere else) tell us your favorite Christmas present. Remember, post in comments section of THIS article on SSD.
Contest continues through the rest of this Christmas Eve on through Christmas Day and ends at 2359Z on Boxing Day 26 December, 2012.
Use any nom de guerre you desire but use your real email address as we will use it to contact the winners to request your shipping address.
Unclaimed prizes will be redistributed.
Void Where prohibited.
Good luck and Happy Christmas from SSD!

My favorite Christmas present was a Browning BAR 7mmRemMag.
My favorite christmas gift has to be spending time with my loved ones. Time with them is more important than any gift I could ever receive.
My favourite Christmas present? The watch my father gave me when I was seventeen, when he and I weren’t on the best of terms, but were trying. Eighteen years later, I’m still wearing it.
well this would have to be a toss up.
the first was a nerf gun i received last year that to my great surprise had a mil spec rail, which i then attached my TA-33 ACOG to before decimating person or pet that moved.
the second i have not received yet, which is of course hot chicks with guns.

my favorite gift is to just be home for christmas with my family rather than in “trashcanistan”.
My favorite Christmas gift ever was my Civil War reenacting kit my parents got me as a kid. I kind of knew it was coming, but opening those boxes and seeing it was an experience that I won’t ever forget.
Favorite Christmas present to date was being able to bring my mother home from the hospital after 4 weeks of intense chemotherapy. Happy to say that was 10 years ago this Christmas
I’ve recieved a lot of great Christmas presents over the years. But being able to come home from deployment to spend the holidays with my sons has been the best presents of all!!!
My favorite christmas gift was a Hornady Powder Measure and Powder drop die.
My favorite present is still on it’s way, hopefully in the next few days! My first child, a girl (who was due the 24th) will hopefully be born soon! The wife is having increasing contractions!
My favorite Christmas present this year was a Lego police set. Ahh it feels good to feel like a kid again.
For this year it was good to be around family and not in the sandbox.
favorite present: Christmas eve range time. Freezing my butt off and loving every second of it.
Best christmas present this year was being able to celebrate it in the states it’s been over four years since the last time I was able to.
Favorite is the one I buy myself..
My favorite present were my Oakley Juliet metal frame. Love thoses.
I have a few “best evers”, the birth of my Son 22 years ago is the tops though. This year the S&W M&P .40c and Rem 870 are really really nice though!
My favorite gift was my Kings Arsenal MultiCam seat covers!!! Stand back varmits!! I’m coming for ya!
Favourite Christmas present would have to have been my first Kelty backpack.
My favorite Christmas present is a Smith and Wesson 1911 my wife purchased for me.
Favorite Christmas present would be a Gemtech Halo
My favorite Christmas present was a 10 pack of Magpul PMAGs!
Mine was the change to catch up with all the family before I head down-range next year (that and a Arcteryx Atom LT jacket… but if I’d put that first, they’d kill me!)
Would have to be the Garmin Oregon I received last year.
Best Christmas was coming home from Basic/AIT just in time for Christmas.
My best Christmas present ever was the custom knife my father fabricated for me when I was 14 years old….(I’m 45 now)!! He made it out of A2 steel and it has a 7 inch blade with a full tang. He even learned how to do heat treating just so he could do it on this blade. He carved the grips out of pronghorn antler and then had one of his buddies at work at Ford Motor Company to custom build a leather sheath. The sheath gave up the ghost long ago but the knife served me through my U.S Army career then with search and rescue in California. (I’ve used it as an anchor point for repelling on more than a few occasions…haha!!) This blade has never failed me and I fully expect to be able to pass it on once I get too old to do anything with it anymore.
My favorite christmas present would be the new Glock 17 the wife just got me.
A set of cold steel throwing knives. We love playing with the four foot dart board in the backyard.
My favorite Christmas present this year is the dissipator upper that my wife ordered for me
My favorite Christmas present would be Hot Shots 2013 calendar!
Also I would like to wish steady aim to all whom are preserving our way of life.
Greetings and Merry Chrismas and a very happy new year to all of you from FINLAND!
Thanks to everyone who entered!
Good luck!
