Gentlemen, I have a great update! As you may have noticed, we just hit 4 pages in the Christmas gift thread! I promised to add an item for each new page that's added to the gift thread, and I just added a fantastic gift to the list, it's gift #11! I added a new-in-box, never used, and from my personal collection a unique Emerson Knives Double-Struck CQC-17 knife! You'll notice that the knife doesn't have a serial number, that's because it's the only Emerson CQC-17 that has been made with a double-struck logo! It was done purposefully by Emerson just to make an interesting variation of the CQC-17 for one lucky collector (who was me, until I decided to gift it to a new lucky person in the gift thread!).
I'm not sure how much stuff I have in my collection, I promise to try to add a new item for each new page that gets added to the Christmas gift thread! That way we keep some better odds of winning a gift as more people join the fun!
Also, I have another big update! The Christmas gift thread is moving along nicely, so I've decided that if we hit 5 pages, I'll add a new gift to the list AND I'll donate $500 to the Scout Sniper Association (SSA)! I'm certain that we will hit 5 pages in that thread, so when I make the $500 donation to the SSA, I'll make sure that the donation is made from all of the Sniper's Hide members who have participated in the Christmas gift thread! This isn't a donation from me, it's a donation from all of us in this community!
Here's a link to the Scout Sniper Association's website, please check it out when you have time! The SSA is a phenomenal organization and pretty much ever dollar that's donated goes towards fulfilling our mission of supporting active duty and reserve USMC Scout Snipers (which also includes MARSOC and Recon snipers). We don't have any paid positions, and we have very few annual costs, such as running our website. So, you can rest easy that any donation that you make is going directly towards helping our sniper community! Please ask me any questions about the SSA that you might have, I'm more than happy to provide any answers!

If anyone here would like to make their own donation to the Scout Sniper Association, please click on the link below, and it will take you directly to the SSA's donation page. There is no obligation to make a donation to the SSA in order to participate in the Christmas gift thread, it's completely up to you if you'd like to make a donation. Thank you very much in advance to anyone here does make a donation to the SSA, your support is greatly appreciated!
