The official Status update thread #227. Lets see what 2022 has in store for us

You know I don't remember seeing any ammo cans.

Yeah, I was really surprised. There's usually at least one person selling them and almost every show.

 

[ancjr]

I remember when you could get ammo cans at regular (non firearms) flea markets for $3 or so

Hello Greg, bc. I don't think I got you guys before leaving out.

So I get to the cemetery. I notice in the next lane over a silver SUV sitting there with 2 people in it.
I get out and visit the wife for awhile. All of a sudden I hear some guy get out if the other vehicle and start yelling. I can't understand him, but look over at them. He gets back in. I turn back around. A minute or two later, I hear more yelling, not sure if he got out again or not. Then they left at a faster speed than I travel on dirt roads covered by ice/snow. Not sure if I interrupt a rendezvous or they were dopers.

I have one of the big ammo cans out in the barn... I think grenades came in it? I need to use it.

I've got one that's huge. It's about the size of a 50 cal can, but it's almost 4 feet tall. If I ever filled it, I wouldn't be able to move it without a dolly, and it would be a pain to get to anything that wasn't right on top. Heck it would be a pain if it was only half full.

Yeah, the one I have would be heavier than I would want to carry if full, and they're no where as big as you describe.

Our cemetery seems to attract that sort of crowd also.

If the one I have opened lengthwise, it would at least be more usable. As it is, it just takes up space. Actually I could probably fit an AR or an AK in it.

Post pics when you get home.

My take for the day. Some hard to find ammo and a mag for my CZ 452

Accuracy Unlimited in Seymour has SK and Eley now & then, but I've never seen a CZ .22 magazine in the wild.

Had a small bowl of Butterfinger ice cream for dessert. Now it's nap time.

There was a guy at the Greenfield show with several tables and I think all he was selling were mags and pistol grips. He had 10 rnd plastic and 5 rnd steel or plastic.

I need a nap, but they're supposed to deliver some furniture some time today.

Drone has finished patrolling Ukraine border and is heading back.

I had read that about you on a bathroom wall.

I have a few of these.

Love my 40mm cans for storage. Not so much for carry. I have 50cal cans for that.
