Someone told me once: "if we're at the point where we need to bury our guns, it's accurately time to dig them up."

Some people thin we’re paranoid for doing hints like this...but I’ve always followed the old rule: “Fail to prepare...Prepare to fail.” And failing in this scenario means getting dead 💀

I'm a firm believer in Redundancy... slather them in Cosmoline, seal them in plastic with a Desiccant bag in each, and then seal them into the tube. No Cosmoline for the ammunition of course, but I'd suggest a light coat of oil, 2 Desiccant bags, and heat the air inside the bag (with a hair dryer) before you seal it, to drive out every bit of moisture you can)... should be good for 400 years if needed.

Very cool brother! I've though about picking up a cheap PSA AR and trying this out. Looks like you did it right, everything was in great condition!

Looks pretty intact for being buried for 4 years. Id call it a success. Thanks for sharing

I have a kit just like this. I haven't burried it yet and it doesn't have an AR15 but I did put a single shot shotgun in mine with a variety of ammo for hunting. Even have some freez dried mountain house food in it. I pray to God things will never get that bad. Only my son and I know where it is. Or will be. Great video.

I cached a tube off the Dalton highway north of the Arctic Circle in 1990 and didn't go back for it until 2023. Shotgun, ammo, field gear, rations were all intact. 33 years, food was forever food so no worries. I've left probably 35 caches strategically located and feel confident they will survive the effort.

Well this popped up in my feed and it looks like you're still posting so I'll kindly subscribe. 🤠

Looks like you did it right. I would repack with new plastic and stick it right back. Thanks for sharing.

That was COOL thank you for sharing man. God Bless..

Nice. Pipe and fittings cost twice as much if not more since then. As a plumber I will say That tube is still good if it was in the ground . Sun light will destroy pvc though. Atleast you know it’s water proof. Or we wouldn’t be using it on our homes for sewage for decades.

Wish the prices were the same for all that gear you put in the ground. I’m glad it’s in good condition.

Good job. They do sell gun tubes for burial, but they are expensive compared to PVC pipe, and the hardware store does not have a record of you buying a gun tube, just construction pipe. Good job oiling the rifle up. I would not use plastic bags. Depending on the climate they can attract and keep a lot of moisture. Cheap sleeves are good. Bury it and put a rock over the tube, then bury it. so it is harder to find with a metal detector. PVC -- 10-15 dollars. Gun tube at Sportsman's Guide $139

I don’t care what any body says or their opinions, you are smarter that the average bear. Thanks for sharing, FullAuto!!!2A4L🇺🇸

Beeswax for the removable cap. Plumbers used it in the past to hold back ten foot of water column on wall hung toilet gaskets

Brother I have seen 20 year old Pvc main lines to irrigation lines. Some were even older just can’t prove it. But that PVC was good to go and think about this for a second. Those PVC lines had waster that was pressurized to at least 60psi in them. Then winterized and to winterize irrigation you need to pressurize the lines to at least 120psi but most techs will turn there compressor up to it’s max to get the job done faster. So 20 years of that kind of abuse and they were fine. If you make a cachet and just bury it I would imagine that it an the contents would be fine for 100 years that’s assuming it was never tampered with.

That's awesome, looks like you might have been prepping for killary

How many of the ammunition primers are now dud due to absorbed moisture?

excellent video!

That's a great idea, but man, your basement looks rough!

Nice it worked well!

Evening buddy from England. Nice one mate. How many others ya got out they 😁 👍. Nice one mate cheers for sharing ATVB Andy

If one can knock off a glued on endplug, one did not glue it on properly. That glue should make a weld, impossible to get apart without destroying it.

Looks good

Where you trying to grow a dragunov tree??

Everything held up well as nice share....Good stuff....

Hey bud. Curious, why not add some food/water/first aid in that? Maybe a few MRE"s or something. HEll even a can of soup. Just my thoughts. THinking if i had to bug out to my cache, then shit done went south and i probably lost a lot and would need the little bit of food.

Nice video.👍👍👍..... 2 questions: Did you vacuum seal the bag? and Which kind of grease did you use?

What part of the country are you in? I feel like results will vary depending on how wet/dry, cold/hot it is in your area.

What sort of plastic bags are they mate? How did you seal the bags?

Awesome

I've been looking for an ak stock like that. Could you repeat what make it was, couldn't quite hear

Will pvc pass a yard being surveyed with metal detectors?

LOL looks like a fun hobby lol

Any idea what the pvc and fittings costed ?

Why did you not use VCI paper and a silica gel desiccant? I guess it's overkill?

Interesting.

I wonder if its work throwing in some of those oxygen absorbers like the ones in beef jerky to prevent rust.

What lubricant did you use?

Greeip

What is the tube called that he buried that in??. Pls someone let me know

Sorry. It’s just me I guess. I picked up a word here or there but your southern drawl is so much so that I couldn’t understand most of what you said. However, everything coming out of the tube looked pretty good after 4 years.

Be a great video I'm sure but he'll ya can't hear it hardly. Guess I will get in a quit place an try.

Next time put mre in there and fire starter and a knife other survival tools like a tourniquet

Where’s the money

No oxygen absorbers?

Something about that growing MOLD in the background 🤔

Idk said this was his dad's then a little past 2mins he say that "HE" heavily greased it before putting it in🤔🤔👀

Guy don't believe in drylock on those basement walls does he. Bet that cellar smells like mildew big time.
