Note from JWR:
Just one day left! The high bid in the SurvivalBlog
Benefit Auction is now at $1,500. The auction is for
a large mixed lot that includes:
1.) A large "be ready to barter" box of full-capacity gun magazines,
from the JASBORR.
This box includes: 12 - Used original Bundeswehr contract HK91 (G3) steel 20
round magazines, 6 - Used original FN of Belgium-made FN-FAL alloy 20
round magazines, 6 - Used AR-15/M16 USGI (a mix of Simmonds & Colt made)
alloy 20 round magazines, and 2 - New and very scarce original FN (Belgian-made)
US M1/M2 Carbine blued steel 30 round magazines (marked "AYP") .
All of these magazines are of pre-1994 manufacture (and hence legal to possess
in New York.) These magazines have a combined value of approximately $450. 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.
2. ) A brand new in box Big Berky Water Filter, with your choice of either
four white ceramic filter elements or four black filter elements. This is a
$329 retail value, courtesy of Ready
Made Resources.
3.) A huge lot of DVDs, CD-ROMs and hard copy nuclear survival/self-sufficiency
references (a $300+ value) donated by Richard Fleetwood of www.SurvivalCD.com
4.) A NukAlert compact
radiation detector donated by at KI4U.com (a
$160 retail value).
5.) A desert tan SOG
Trident folding knife, courtesy of Safecastle.

6.) A case of 12 recent production full mil-spec MRE rations (identical to
the current military contract MREs, but without the civilian sale
restriction markings). This is a $90 retail value, courtesy of CampingSurvival.com.
Thus, the combined retail value of this combined lot is at least $1,275. This
auction ends on January 15th. Please e-mail us
