One hundred years ago, on the eleventh day of November, President Woodrow Wilson decreed that the end of World War One—and the sacrifice and bravery of our military—would be solemnly honored on November 11 by a grateful nation. Just in time for Veteran’s Day 2019, we’ve learned that Steyr Arms USA is saluting this uniquely American holiday by inviting veterans to participate in their special Individual Officer Program pricing. Additionally, the famous firearms manufacturer is pledging a portion of their proceeds for the month of November to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation.
Steyr Arms USA is headquartered in Bessemer, Ala., and is proudly staffed by American veterans from all branches of the military. Despite Steyr’s European roots, this pledge is their way of showing support for those who protect and serve. The company offers special pricing for a wide variety of rifles and pistols to individual Americans in the military, law enforcement, and first-responder fields. They call it their Military and Law Enforcement Pricing Program, and America’s military—including retirees, reservists, and National Guard—is invited to participate.
If you are or have served, enjoying the benefits of our Individual Officer Program is simple! Just e-mail a copy of your credentials to le-usa@steyr-arms or call (205) 417-8639 to request your discount.
Steyr Arms has pledged a portion of profits in November to benefit the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. The Foundation ensures full post-secondary educational support to the surviving children of special operations personnel, as well as immediate financial aid to severely wounded special operations personnel.
This is your invitation to commemorate Veterans Day together with your fellow veterans at Steyr Arms USA. Would you like to know more? Check out the video below, or click here https://www.steyr-arms.com/us/lemil to learn more about the Military and Law Enforcement Pricing Program.

People who cry about not getting a discount on a product because they “served” in some capacity, they dont deserve a dime off even a cup of coffee. I was injured and retired out on a LEO combat injury and I’m sure I dont qualify. You dishonor your profession and yourself bitching about not getting a discount….man up.

Well making and giving out copies of one’s ID was a big no-no and punishable under the UCMJ…….I was able to convince a reseller to settle with the top of my ret. pay stub instead, the dd-214 is crappy- hell they should just let us use our VFW cards.
Juan Cabano says
I was in the United States Army but did not retire. I am a veteran that served for eleven years. And if I understand you “credentials” list correctly I don’t qualify for this officer pricing program. So just because I don’t have retirement papers I don’t qualify? If this is true then it’s not right. There are lots of guys and women like myself who didn’t retire that do not qualify. But we served our country with honor and pride. Seems like we got singled out. Steyr Arms this is not right. If you truly want to honor veterans then include all of us. Not just retirees and active duty people. All of us. It’s a great thing you’re doing. Just do it for everyone. Thank you for your time.
Robert H Ballance says
I think they would accept your DD214 which reflects your active duty.
Ballistic Monk says
Actually, since DD214 Papers are not qualifying, this means lowly veterans are NOT included in this program. Retirees who actually did a career yes but you need that retiree ID. But if you just did an enlistment and went home, then that’s not enough.
Watching a fellow soldier get railroaded on a false rape charge where even the supposed victim said nothing happened -you see they still wanted to send the fellow up the river because fear of political correctness – and not reenlisting out of fear of having no rights to due process if I might get accused of something is costing me some pittance discount now. Who the hell stays for a career in an organization like that?
Come to think of it nothing feels honorable any more.
If anybody want to balk at me here’s a preemptive “Ok Boomer”.
The Bearded Pretender says
Are you the same whiny Millennial that post “Ok Boomer” on every post because we won’t retire so you can “Move Up?”
The same one that whimpers you can’t get a promotion because no-one will move on?
Well, Buck Up Buttercup, just because you whine about a job but fail to perform at it doesn’t “Entitle” you to more money or a Promotion.
And if I have anything to say about it, Snowflakes like you will NEVER move up where I’m going to work for another 20 years.
So Sonny, STFU, showing up for work and doing your job when you’re there is what it takes.
