"A well regulated zombie response militia, necessary to the function of a zombie-free state, the right to keep and bare arms shall not be infringed..."
I've been locked in my apartment for so long now, I ran out of movies to watch and started doing some arts and crafts projects. I decided to decorate a couple ammo cans with stencils and spray paint.
I picked up these two 30 caliber ammo cans at BiMart for $10 each. The bigger stencil was custom made for me by a seller on eBay, $7 with free shipping. The smaller stencils that say ".22LR" and "9mm" were also from eBay, $2.50 each with free shipping. The shipping was fast, only two or three days via USPS.
In order to fill the .22LR can, I purchased 3 boxes of "Federal Black Pack" at 1,100 rounds per box. The .22 box holds 3,300 rounds. I was able to purchase these boxes of Federal (during the ammo shortage) at BiMart for $50 each.
The 9mm box was proving more difficult to fill during the ammo shortage, so I bought some 9mm in bulk here on the forum. Thank goodness for the forum! The 9mm box holds 1,200 rounds.
Part of pretending that there will be a zombie apocalypse is getting yourself prepared, and part of being locked in your house for weeks on end is making ridiculous arts and crafts projects. I hope the quarantine will be over soon, I've been shopping on Amazon for tactical dog harnesses and looking up ways to attach varmint guns to molle straps.
I hope you like the ammo cans! Maybe they will give you some good ideas about customizing your own ammo cans? Let me know what you think?
Stay safe out there!
