burying your guns
besides pvc pipe. what other ways have you heard of people burying their guns. is it safe to bury a rifle, with ammo, and mags in the same container? i would think it would be ok. let me know your imput there. and how far does a average metal detector go down? is there something you can cover your container with to block the detector?
mmmm Why would you want to bury your guns ?? That kinda makes them useless.JMHO

Well..... As has been noted on another forum. Yes it is safe to bury all together. The trick is density and volume. By that I mean if they want to they will find it unless it is real far down.Originally Posted by 86k10
Something in the middle of nowhere will make someone dig with a detector. Now lets say you have a barn and on the side of the barn is where your item is. now joe snuffy comes along and his detector goes off and all he finds is a lifter a foot down. another hit a connecting rod, another rod. Do you see where he will give up finding a bunch of junk parts? Does not have to be parts it can be anything you like. The trick is to make someone move to another area because there is nothing but junk.........
Just a thought.
I see you running, tell me what your running from
Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.
Not if they are somewhere you plan to have to go someday. A couple of years ago $120 would have put an SKS in cosmo, some stripper clips and 500 rds of ammo in the ground.

When it comes time to bury your firearms, it has come time to use them. .
In some cases yes.

yes, and in the mean time thay have been bulldozed over for a new parking lot. but at least anyone with a metal detector will move on, too much hassle to dig up.
The sum of my thoughts...
God forbid that time comes, but mine will be laid down "hot and smokin' to the end"!
OK, in reality burying something is a recipe for disaster with inevitable decay and brutal natural occurring things in CO will screw you (like rocks moving)... If serious, I'd highly recommend checking out the long-term storage caves in MO.
In California, I think you have to bury the guns and ammo in separate containers . . .
I've actually read an article about a guy who buried some go to guns and ammo outside of Las Vegas. He had a job transfer or something like that and when he returned to get his cache the entire area had been devoloped into a sub division of homes and apparently there was no way he was ever going to locate them and get them back. True or false it's food for thought !
