hide guns from thieves and looters – government types too! http://www.prepperpodcast.com/hide-guns-thieves-looters-government-types-too/By James Smith (http://www.prepperpodcast.com/author/james-smith/) on December 30, 2013

Don’t put it anywhere near where the stored food (http://www.pprn.mygofoods.com/) is!
Expensive, sensitive metal detectors take time to train. Consider our teenagers and expect that kind of ‘trainability’ of the FEMA types.
Interior walls
Get metal pipes such as curtain hangers, the cheap ones
Place them at a standing angle between studs
Put tinfoil behind the paneling at an angle that simulates a gun standing
Floor boards
Hide the weapons along water (http://www.prepperpodcast.com/disaster-preparedness/water/) pipes
Don’t put them inside washer and dryers
Too easy to take apart
Make them expend energy
People are naturally lazy, so exploit this.
Buried outside
Bury at least two feet down
Bury in a 3-4 inch PVC pipe covered with oily rag
Mark your site!
Build a underground gun vault
Use 7 bags of concrete
Dig down deep enough to handle the thickness of three bags plus the length of one bag. I estimate that to be 24 inches, but then dig another 3 inches for the dirt cover for a total of about 27 inches. It would be about 27 inches by 18 by 12
Place one bag flat on the bottom
Put two on the sides to form the long end of the box. Use plastic tent pegs to keep bag standing upright.
Put two on the ends to form the short end of the box. Use plastic tent pegs to keep bag standing upright.
Put your guns (http://www.ultimatepreppers.net/) in the vault
Make sure that they are vacu-sealed to keep out moisture
Now take the remaining two bags and position them on top of the other bags so you have a box
The nice thing is that the guns are kept dryer because the concrete will absorb moisture first creating a crypt
By having two “top” layers it will give a very weak signal to the metal detector.
Dig out soil a the level of the top of the crypt so that you can take a piece of plywood and put it over the crypt, but its edges are supported by dirt.
This will give it support in case someone walks over the spot, they won’t fall in
Cover with a few inches of dirt. Put some nails in the soil
You can get gun cleaning equipment from here: http://www.guncleaning.co.uk (http://www.guncleaning.co.uk/)
Cover with metal debris
Take the gun apart and put them in simple areas. A handgun can fit into many small areas.
If you have a hollow metal door, consider that as well. In fact, consider ANY hollow door but the metal ones will be very helpful.
