Doesn't strike me as a great strategy.
Yeah. I’ll be the owners wished that their last acts had been to bury them in living meat, 2 or 4 legged.
Years ago I saw a photo of several pistols that had been wrapped in a Confederate coat and buried. They were refound in the early 1970s with a metal detector. All the wood had rotted, and the pistols were rusted junk.
Years ago I bought an 1873 Winchester rifle 44/40 that had chinked in the walls of a log cabin. it was rusted up but still worked. Wonder what story it could tell as to why it was chinked in between two logs in the log cabin. I still wish I had it.
Then there are all those rifles at the bottom of lakes lost by FReepers.
Caching surplus is the only way to go if you can’t carry it with you.
