Investigation is ongoing, and we have no answers for the public, but a gofundme account has been set up to help finance the multiple surgeries that he has already sustained today and the more that are scheduled in the next few days.

We apologize upfront, as we do not have much more information, but we appreciate any support that you may be able to give.

After the flood of interest in the mismatched parts SMP's, I thought it would be a great opportunity to do something I've been wanting to do for a while. Many of you know John Hill's wife passed away after a battle with cancer. His friends have started a fundraiser to help cover outstanding medical bills: https://www.giveforward.com/fundrai…/…/in-memory-of-katrina…;
Some of you all may not realize it but you all have greatly benefitted from John's diligent work moderating this forum, creating files for reference, etc.
So this is your chance to say thank you! We will be selling 25 of these missmatched units directly to you our customers. From each sale we will donate $80 to the fundraiser for a total of $2000. In addition, since you all asked for it. 5 of the 25 I signed. These will go out randomly since we don't even know once they are boxed which is which!
For those of you who don't want another SMP in goofy colors, please consider donating directly! John has done a great deal to support the airsoft community and this is a little way we can say thank you!
We are working on a link to let you purchase them through the website. These will be sold on a first come first serve basis.
**Edit** I posted this here specifically cause I want the people who have benefitted from John's work to have the opportunity to support him. It's you all doing the giving not me...I'm just helping out by giving some incentive.**End Edit**
