Making your own Desiccant Packs for Long-term Firearm Storage By Burt Gummer “I feel I have been denied critical, need-to-know information!” (Tremors II)
With the political climate such as it is today, those of us who had enough for-sight to acquire firearms for the eventual need of preservation and survival have realized that long term storage will become a necessity. It will become a necessity because those in power would like the populous as dependant and passive as possible. This of course includes the right to keep and bear arms which the morons on the left & in the White House consider such a pesky little roadblock to the creation of the perfect socialist society. Damn those 2nd amendment rights!!

Hold on!!!
If the time has come to bury firearms.....then it is already too late!
Take the stand now, fight for the Republic so that day never comes to pass.
yours too?
yeah that sux- it would have been nice to have a hidden arsenal
***** “Besides, if “they” are coming after them, THAT is when it’s time to use them! Not hide them!” *****
YES !
remember remember the second of november
****** “ Clean it, oil it, pack it. No need for desiccant. Just wipe it clean when it comes time to unpack it. “ ******
If you absolutely have to (for whatever reason) Oil / Newspaper / Plastic Bags / PVC Pipe & Foam (Great Stuff) ... cap both ends bury shallow with ammo well hidden.
TT
I agree. If, God forbid, such an awful time comes, I won’t be burying anything in the ground.
Re: “Damp Rid”
You need to replace “Damp Rid” every several months, by buying NEW “Damp Rid”. Buying Rem-Dri or other dessicants which can be recharged in an oven is a much better option.....at least it is what I do.
General note to all:
If there is a time to worry about gun confiscation, individually or collectively, I would, oddly enough, advise against using guns.
The logic for the suggestion is that they will be expecting guns, which means that it is a grand time to do something they aren’t expecting.
Here’s a hypothetical. A group of heavily armed men surround your house, anticipating confiscating your guns. A quick count estimates that there are eight of them, and only one of you.
Your response is to push a button. No flash, no explosion, just a can dropping into another can, quietly.
The door is smashed open, and the armored men come pouring in, guns drawn. “Freeze! Gun Police! Where’s the guns?”
Sitting there quietly, hands in the air, you say, “In the basement”.
One of them throws the door open, and four of them go charging down the stairs, screaming. Then it’s quiet, again.
One of the four still upstairs yells to them. No answer.
So three more go downstairs looking for them, cautiously. Silence again.
Now there’s just you, and one of them left. Finally, he leaves you, handcuffed, to check on the others. Now how are you going to get out of those handcuffs. Because he isn’t coming back. Because the basement is full of carbon dioxide.
That’s what happens when you drop a gallon can of baking soda into a 55 gallon drum mostly full of vinegar.
Friends help you move. Real friends help you move bodies.
A question of strategy.
When is it more strategically advantageous to use arms against an encroaching entity:
—When that entity is actively searching for “contraband” arms, or
—When that entity is satisfied that such arms no longer exist?
bookmark for later.
If they say they’re coming after them, they’ll get 50% of them.
No sense letting “them” start down this path!
