The bidding is still at $460 in the SurvivalBlog benefit auction, for a scarce pre-1899 antique Finnish M39 Mosin Nagant rifle from my personal collection. This rifle was rebarreled by Valmet during WWII, and is in excellent condition. It comes with a brand new replica bayonet, original sling, and original muzzle cap. Since the receiver for this rifle was made in 1898, it can be mailed directly to the winning bidder’s doorstep, with no FFL paperwork! The auction ends on October 15th.. Just e-mail us your bid.
The recent query about burying CONEXes sparked a large flurry of replies. You may recognize the writer of the last letter posted below–“Doug Carlton”–as one of the characters from my novel “Patriots: Surviving the Coming Collapse”. The character was loosely based on a real life friend for mine that I have known since college. We went through ROTC together, in the early 1980s.
