Win a Mk13 Mod 7 USMC – Scout Sniper Association 2020 Raffle

Tuesday, September 8th, 2020

The USMC Scout Sniper Association raffle continues, but time is running out to get in on it. There are five (5) weeks remaining. Although the annual Gathering of Snipers (2020) was canceled, the raffle was not. That means you still have the opportunity to win an MK13 Mod 7 (the USMC variant of the SOCOM rifle) with all the accessories and accompanying prizes or a HogTooth knife. All pertinent firearm laws apply, of course.

MK13 Mod 7

In April 2018, the US Marine Corps announced it would field a USMC-specific version of SOCOM’s MK13 Mod 7 Sniper Rifle manufactured at NSWC Crane. While the M40A6 is being retained for use in training and as an alternate platform, the MK13 Mod 7 has operationally replaced the venerable M40 series rifles as the primary sniper rifle for the Corps. The M40 series saw service with the Corps in several variations starting in 1966. Scout Snipers are now carrying the MK13 Mod 7 in every clime and place, throughout the Global War on Terror and in other hot spots around the globe.

SSA Mk13 Prize Rifle

The rifle you could win in this giveaway was donated through the generosity of SSA Member Ryan Niederman and Friend of the SSA Jarret Guill. Components were carefully sourced to produce as authentic a clone of the military-issued firearm as is humanly possible, some manufactured on Marine Corps contract production runs. In addition, generous donations were made by the following industry partners to ensure an authentic build:

• Nightforce – Mil-Spec scope
• Geisselle Automatics – Mil-Spec trigger
• Surefire – Certificate for Mil-Spec suppressor
• LaRue Tactical – Mil-Spec QD scope mount
• MagPul Industries – Eight magazines
• Harris Engineering – Mil-Spec bipod
• VTAC – Mil-Spec sling

As the SSA explains,

“The lucky winner of this special, very complete rifle package will own a historic piece of the legacy built with the blood, sweat and tears of US Marine Corps Scout Snipers.”

Grey Ghost Precision teams up with Timney Triggers for some Giveaway Therapy

Fun Fact: GGP puts Timney Triggers in all their rifles

Grey Ghost Precision and Timney Triggers just launched a giveaway that will help jump start your next rifle or pistol build. Three prize packs are up for grabs, including GGP receivers and frames, Timney Triggers, and some soft goods from GGP sister company Grey Ghost Gear as well. The giveaway ends on June 1st 2020, and the form to enter can be found here.

“With the ‘Coronapocalypse’ still taking its toll on all of us, we felt it was a good time to kick off another promotion to give fans a chance to win some high quality parts to take your rifle or pistol project to the next level.” said Ryan Cross, Grey Ghost’s Marketing Ninja. “Right now, a lot of our customers are stuck at home and are turning to DIY projects to lift their spirits. Receivers, frames and parts/components are flying off the shelves, presumably because most gun shops are still closed around the country, as well shooting ranges… not to mention the increase in political pushback against the 2nd Amendment and the upcoming election panic that we see so regularly. The rise in stress is pretty apparent, which gave us the inspiration to launch a cheeky anxiety themed giveaway with our friends at Timney. We picked our favorite Timney triggers to pair with our AR-15 receivers and pistol frames, instead of giving away complete rifles… because receivers (and frames) are still widely easily obtainable to more folks living behind enemy lines. If your FFL is able to transfer receivers or frames to you in your specific state, then you can get in on this too! And for those who are looking to build another custom handgun, we’ve included our Combat Pistol Frame and new in-house trigger as well, not to mention some of our favorite soft goods from Grey Ghost Gear to round it all off. While we don’t have the cure to everyone’s ailments, at least three lucky winners will feel pretty damn good in a couple weeks.”

The first prize bundle of the Get Triggered Giveaway is a GGP Billet AR-15 Receiver set, which includes a Timney AR-15 Competition Trigger (the same trigger GGP installs in their MKII Light 556 complete rifles) as well as an Apparition SBR Bag from Grey Ghost Gear. The bag is a nice little bonus, as its sporty appearance throws off the fact that it can conceal a short barreled rifle, AR Pistol or even a full size rifle that has been taken down.

The second prize is a GGP Cornerstone Forged Lower receiver, paired with a Timney Impact AR Trigger and a Grey Ghost Gear Range Bag.

Last but not least, the third prize is a GGP Combat Pistol frame (a serialized, stripped frame that shares Glock compatibilities), a GGP Combat Trigger, and a Grey Ghost Gear Soft Pistol Case.

All of these prizes bundles contain serialized components that require a FFL transfer. Needless to say, only U.S. residents over the age of 21 that are able to possess said items and pass a background check can win. The terms and conditions of the giveaway can be found here. Even if you’re unable to win, subscribing to the newsletters is still a fun time.
