The New York Times reports: Human-to-Human Infection by Bird Flu Virus Is Confirmed [1]. With this news in mind, it is high time for families to get their logistics ready for an extended period of self-quarantine. Want help planning what you need? First, read my piece on how to survive an influenza pandemic [2]. Next, get a copy of my “big box” preparedness course [3]. Someday, you may be very glad that you did.

The Pre-1899 Specialist [4] just put their hand-picked Model 1893 Oberndorf Mauser rifles on sale, at just $159.95 [5], (With bayonet and scabbard or $144.95 each if you buy two.) Sure beats paying Sportsman’s Guide $299 for one in rougher condition. [6] I recommend that every SurvivalBlog reader buy one or two of these from The Pre-1899 Specialist, [4] while they still have some left. No FFL is required for most locales. (Even California!)
