Now more than ever, we've approached the cusp for the need to seriously think about protecting our own, whether it is our family, our community, our state or our lives. There used to be a time in our generation where playing army and pushing little tanks around our living room floor during play time was fun and a guy like GI Joe was our hero. As adults, seeing that in real life is not so much fun. If you stop and think about it maybe it was a sign of what might be headed our way one day. Who would have ever thought our Country and State would get to the point that it is today.
During each War we've learned from the previous battle what works and what doesn't work. We've suffered dearly as individuals and as a whole. But from great sacrifice comes great knowledge and we learn as individuals our strength is in our numbers. The need is at its peak right now and we were smart and have the means to protect and enforce our own now, more than ever is the time to do so.
The Blackwater Grizzly APC, offered here today is a 22 ton armored infantry mobility was designed and built for the US Army and its unique design would handle .50 caliber rounds and absorb and deflect blast from underneath to protect its cargo and humans. The Blackwater Company was commissioned by the US Government to produce these vehicles for modern day warfare and combat. But just like every war the US is involved in, projections were off and the need for Blackwater to complete its order was obsolete and larger companies who have a strong influence on US Policies like Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics were awarded the contracts exceeding of $120 million dollars. If you're a car guy, you can compare it the same story as the Tucker in the late 40's. Big companies such as GM, Ford and Chrysler didn't want the little guy to succeed and would do what it takes to wipe them out such as Lockheed and General Dynamics did.
What is the Story with Bulletproof-It's MRAP Vehicles?
The MRAPs offered for sale are Blackwater Grizzly APCs built in 2007-2008. The Blackwater Company (now Academi) was commissioned by the U.S. Government to produce these vehicles for modern warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, U.S. projected needs turned out to be a bit off, and the Blackwater order was no longer needed. Larger companies (Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics) with heavier lobbying strength were awarded the MRAP contracts in excess of $120 million dollars.
The upside of Blackwater's efforts at the time was that it gave them a chance to prove they could build something just as well as larger companies and produce a product that could meet military specifications. These MRAPs have never seen combat. They have never been beat on in the deserts and streets of Iraq or Afghanistan. With most of them having less than 1,000 miles on them, they are not “used” military gear. They are brand new vehicles and this is the last one we have available!
Can a Civilian Buy an MRAP?
Yep, civilians can buy MRAPs. They are perfectly legal in every way. What you are not buying is all of the heavy machine guns and military-grade accessories that these vehicles are otherwise ready to be outfitted with. These MRAPs are even street legal. You could use one on your trip to the grocery store, the office, or to drop your daughter off at the high school dance. Street Legal 17 Digit Vin with a Clean Title.
