Ammo can for emergencies?
Hello all!
I was thinking of putting together a "Breakdown kit" to put in my vehicle for the winter. I was thinking a 50cal or 20mm ammo can full of things that can help get me out of a jam and keep me warm/safe during the winter time.
I was thinking a wool blanket, fuel tabs, a fire starter, and a emergency charger for my cell to start with. Any other ideas?Last edited by HomeFront89; October 18th, 2013 at 11:38 AM.

Re: What do you keep in your ammo cans?
I use mine as carriers when going to the range.

Mirror for signaling, magnifying glass for fire, Harbor Freight towing strap, jumper cables, actual map(s), small compass, water, Granola Bars or similar, snow gear (boots, gloves, hat), rain gear, extra fuel. Solar charger for the battery. You're gonna need a bigger box.

Hmmm. I see empty ammo cans lying around as a challenge to buy more ammo.

Re: Ammo can for emergencies?
Yeah I wouldn't limit yourself to that size unless you have to since it'll be staying in the vehicle.

That's a good example of some useful things although I'm sure he can contribute some more if he feels up to it.1776 or 1984? - You decide.

Re: Ammo can for emergencies?
1st Aid Kit
550 cord or rope
Knife
Safety Vest
Seasonal clothing (rain wear, coat, boots)
Spare ammo
Basic hand tools
MRE(s)
Money ($50 in $1 and $5 bills)
Can of Fix A Flat
List of emergency phone numbers
Sun screen lotion
Feminine products if female/married/etc...
Child products (jar of food and a few diapers) if you have small kids
The list could be endless. Don't be surprised when you find yourself needing a footlocker to replace the ammo can.
