Note from JWR:

This is the last day in the current SurvivalBlog Benefit Auction. The bidding is now at $540. The auction is for a scarce original 1980s-vintage Heckler und Koch 19mm Emergency Flare Launcher (EFL) aka "Notsignalgerät" from my personal collection. It comes with three magazines and 28 scarce original German 19mm flares--10 red, 10 white, and 8 green. Together, this package is worth at least $400. It is not classified as a "firearm" under Federal law. (Consult your state and local laws before bidding.) Sorry, no overseas bids will be accepted for this auction. Please e-mail us your bids, in $10 increments. Be sure to submit your bid by midnight (eastern Time) tonight!
