Crosman Auction Benefitting Navy SEAL Foundation Ends This Weekend

BLOOMFIELD, New York (October 31, 2014) Bidding for the Benjamin Armada Navy SEAL Foundation Edition air rifle has topped $3,000 for the two week auction that ends this weekend on GunBroker.com. Crosman has partnered with industry leaders Magpul, Surefire, Zeiss Sport Optics and Tarjac to create a one-of-a-kind package with 100% of proceeds going to support the Navy SEAL Foundation. SKB has joined the effort and contributed an iSeries 5014 rifle case in popular OD Green, bringing the retail value of the package up to $3,300.

The Benjamin Armada is the premier AR-compatible PCP Air Rifle featuring the official Magpul M-LOK modular accessory system. The .22 caliber pre-charged pneumatic rifle is built in America and delivers velocities of 1000 FPS, making it an ideal small game rifle and target shooter. It includes a 10-shot magazine, full sound suppression and gets over 30 shots per fill. The receiver features a machined picatinny rail and the bolt is reversible for left-handed shooters.

“The Armada is an exceptional shootering platform,” says Jesse Caster, Product Manager for Hunting Airguns. “It’s nearly silent, incredibly accurate, and the AR compatibility provides infinite customization possiblities.” The auction of the Navy SEAL Foundation edition ends Sunday, November 2 and features:
