Our 5th anniversary is right around the corner. We asked Mil-Spec Monkey to create a special version to commemorate this auspicious occasion. We’ll be giving 500 of these babies to celebrate. Stay tuned for details.

Look What’s Coming
Friday, May 10th, 2013Douchebags Beware!
Thursday, May 9th, 2013Don’t come on to SSD and attempt a hatchet job on your competitor in my comments section. And don’t go one step further by sending me a bunch of “evidence” attempting to make the case that a company is violating federal law. I am not going to fall for bullshit and in fact, will turn the tables on you.
You better make sure the juice is worth the squeeze if you are going to insinuate I’m on the take. I’m coming for you.
“Freedom Isn’t Free” Cooler to Benefit the Navy SEAL Foundation Relisted on eBay
Wednesday, May 8th, 2013eBay strikes! Halfway through the “Freedom Isn’t Free” Cooler Auction to Benefit the Navy SEAL Foundation, eBay shut it down. Now, it’s back up with all of the details the same. Unfortunately, they lost all of the bids so if you participated before, head back over.
Our friends at MATBOCK have come up with a really cool fundraising idea. They have a buddy who makes custom coolers and approached him about doing a 100% Made in USA cooler with a military theme in order to raise funds for the Navy SEAL Foundation.
A lot of work went into this build. Here you can see the up close, the illustrations burned into the wood.
As an added bonus, the winner will be able to decide what he wants added to the lid.
They’ve also added a few embellishments to keep with the theme.
This is going to look great in my backyard so go out there and win it as a donation for the SSD home office!
Here’s how it works. Visit the auction on eBay.
How to enter
1) Make your bid and check back to ensure you are the highest bidder
2) Give us a Like on Facebook – Visit MATBOCK on Facebook
Details
– The winner will have the opportunity to pick from three other drawings to complete the top of the cooler or they can submit their own idea to be placed on the top. (this is why we have a longer handling time)
– The cooler will arrive before memorial day weekend
– The auction will last 7 days and ends on 13 May.
– 100% of your bid will be donated to the Navy SEAL Foundation
– MATBOCK will pay for UPS ground shipping
The theme for this cooler is “Freedom isn’t free” because so often we forget the daily sacrifices that people all around the world make to ensure our freedom. Usually only during key events or holidays do people (sadly including us) think about these sacrifices. With this hand built 100% USA made cooler on your porch, patio or even in your garage, you will remember the daily sacrifice, not to mention 100% of your donation will go towards the Navy SEAL Foundation to help the families of the men who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Retail for this cooler is over $900, so lets start bidding!

Heroes Need Costumes
Thursday, May 2nd, 2013One of the best ads I’ve ever seen.
This ad was created for the comic book “The Activity” which offers, at least from the visual standpoint, some very realistic looks at the equipment used by special operators. The characters in the book wear Crye and like the ad says, “Heroes Need Costumes.” Crye Precision makes some of the best gear there is, and it’s worn by many a hero.
