Note from JWR:
The current high bid in the SurvivalBlog
Benefit Auction is at $1,510. This auction ends on Sunday,
February 15th. This auction is for a
large mixed lot, which includes::
1.) A "be ready to barter" box of 36 full-capacity
gun magazines, from my personal collection in JASBORR.
This box includes: 12 - Used original Bundeswehr contract HK91 (G3) steel 20
round magazines, 6 - Used original Austrian FN-FAL steel 20 round magazines,
with cartridge counter holes, 10 - Used AR-15/M16 USGI (all Colt made!)
alloy 20 round magazines, 6 - Excellent condition original Glock Model 19 9mm
15 round pistol magazines (early type, with "U" notch), 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 $710, in today's market. 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 Hot
Jaw Bag Sealer and a box of 10 Mylar bags . (Every retreat group should
have one these, since they are a tremendous labor saver!) This is a $200
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 gift certificate for $100 worth of books, courtesy of Back
40 Books.
6.) A
case of 12 cans of recent production nitrogen-packed storage granola (mixed
varieties) This is a $96 retail value, courtesy of CampingSurvival.com.
Thus, this auction has a combined value in excess of $1,565.
This auction ends on February 15th. Please e-mail us
your bid. Your bid will be for the entire mixed lot.
