    Default Where can I get some Steel Drums?

    Does anyone know where I can find some Steel Drums? I want to burn some firewood in them and be able to shoot outdoors through the winter. Thanks in advance.

    A guy in Tannersville used to sell barrels that smelled like pickles. I'll see if he still has a sign next time I drive past his place.

    You tried looking in the Carribean?

    I have to admit it. I thought this very thing!

    I found firebarrels at Steels True Value and American True Value on Route 611. $25 each.

    I had a lot of fun shooting holes into them with my Kel-Tec PLR22. I did not think it would penetrate so easily the steel barrels. My .22 revolver had plenty of power to penetrate one side and dent the back side. The PLR22 with its longer barrel was able to go through the front and back side.

    They are also good for drumming

    I can get them a lot cheaper than that, even FREE!
    Give me a call if you need some more.

    I'm trying to find some of the blue plastic ones to use for cover practice drills. Easier to move around and transport than the steel ones, not good for burning in though!

    Check out Horse farms and truck wash stations for blue ones. The truck wash stations get their cleaning fluid in them. I have a couple from there and most of the time, they're just willing to give them away.

    None in the Poconos. But I know a few down here in Lancaster. Is there a truck stop near a major highway up there? Just for reference, mine originally came from the truck wash over on Flory Mill Road, but they weren't given to me directly from there. But I do know that they normally have them and want to get rid of them.
