Interesting spin on preservation for preparedness.

I could cosmoline a Mosin and a spam can of 'x54R, bury them in a field, and have my grandkids shoot them.

It was a great idea to use the hole created by a blown over tree, then stand the tree back up. No one would think to look there...till now.

I was expecting to see the Glock video, the one where they buried the Glock for 2 years then shot half a case of ammo through it. But it was cool to see something different!

Great idea! major NJ downfall though... bury the gun, 15 years later it will probably be illegal.

Would have been cooler if he had larger pictures with more detail.

 

Also no info about reassembling the gun and firing it...

That's sort of the point. You bury it to avoid the gun banners and produce it when the balloon goes up.

In 15 years there will probably be a Condo or a KMart built over it

The general location of the pipe after the logging was done. It would have helped if I had had a better method of locating the pipe.

 

Here is the top of the pipe uncovered with the noose and winch attached.

 

The pipe was carefully sawn open to reveal that it remained watertight after 15 years underground.

 

The contents of the pipe, still in the protective wrapping.

 

All components were individually wrapped and sealed. The contents show no adverse affects after spending 15 years underground.
