Note from JWR:
Congratulations to M.G., the high bidder in the monthly SurvivalBlog
Benefit Auction that ended last night. Today we are starting
a new auction for a mixed lot that includes:
A.) 15 brand new 30 round M16/M4/AR-15 magazines from JWR's
personal collection. These include four scarce and desirable
brand new HK steel "Maritime
Finish" magazines,
and 11 new USGI alloy magazines made by Center Industries. (Note that most
of these were made during the 1994-2004 Federal ban, most of them have restriction
markings,
but
those became null and void after the ban sunsetted.) Even if you don't own
an AR-15,
these magazines are
great
to keep on hand for barter. (Note: If you live in a state
where full capacity magazines are banned, then you must choose to: refrain
from bidding, or designate a recipient
in an unrestricted state, or re-donate the magazines for a
subsequent auction.) In today's frenzied market, these magazines have a
retail value of at least $460.
B.) An assortment of loose leaf teas, a box of Bellagio hot chocolate
(25 individual packs), and your choice of $50 worth of ground or whole bean
roasted coffee. (A combined retail value of more than $150), all courtesy of CMeBrew.com.
C.) A carton of 10
rolls of Hydrion fuel test strips, (with a retail value
of $85),
donated by UR-2B-Prepared.com.
D.) "Alone
in the Wilderness" book and 2 DVD Value
Set on the life of Richard
Proenneke (a retail value of $51.95) courtesy of Camping
Survival.com
E.) An EVAC
Easy Roll Stretcher kit, (a retail value of $49.95), donated by
FrostCPR.com.
This auction
ends on December 15th. The opening bid is $150. Please e-mail us
your bid.
