Man, I’m way ahead, statwise, on posting frequency. I better start pacing myself.
But! A goodie from Tam over at View From The Porch: First hand report of what happens when your ammo locker gets flooded. Hint: Those military ammo cans you bought were worth it…provided you actually use them.
My wife, despite her usual inherent goodness, does, from time to time, give me a bit of…grief…about the quantity of ammo cans that sit around. Sure, maybe theyre empty NOW….but, when the poisoned, disease-ridden floodwaters swamp us out she’ll be glad we had all that important stuff packed away.
Nice! Just as I was wondering if I could save a couple of bucks on plastic ammo cans, this gives me my answer!
I find that I can usually score excellent condition ammo cans for about $10 (.50) or $6 (.30) so I’ll happily spend that and get the military functionality over some plastic version.
Like I wrote…I’d just flat run out of cans and was in a big hurry. It was a hard lesson but thank God it was only a fraction of my ammo. Thanks for the link.
Sorry to hear about it, man. I’d be a lot more upset than you were, I think, if it had been me. Hopefully some good will come out of it in that others might take heed and be spared the same fate.
