How The US Military Stores Its Guns And Ammo

From Ammoland:

Every step in weapon handling is meticulous. When troops check out firearms, serial numbers are logged, and the weapons are inspected for safety. After training or missions, returned weapons are cleaned, inspected, and re-logged. Yellow tags mark firearms needing maintenance, ensuring no damaged weapon is inadvertently issued.

One standout example is the 341st Security Support Squadron Armory at Malmstrom Air Force Base. This 24/7 facility supports nuclear security, maintaining weapons used to guard missile fields and base assets. Such facilities are a testament to the military’s commitment to precision and security.

Does leaving your magazines loaded hurt them?

“The accepted wisdom seems to be that leaving magazines loaded does not hurt the magazine spring. The loss of stiffness comes from cycling the magazine springs. This has always made sense and seemed to agree with most of my engineering classes. Creep is a material property that you see most often in plastics and with modern heat treating should be pretty much none existent in good spring steels. Well this small experiment seems to point to the possibility of other conclusions:”
