[ARCHIVED THREAD] - 50 Pounds of C4 (Page 1 of 4)

You get drawn into a project to dispose of the possessions of a old neighbor who died recently.

You didn't know the guy, but you get drawn in because you are a 'gun guy' and this guy had some old weapons that will be yours as a fee for helping dispose of the old mans property. You find some decent old rifles and handguns. Nothing like an engraved Artillery Luger or a crate of NIB HK P-7s.

Under some boards in a closet you find 50 pounds of this stuff.

Alongside detonators and other accouterments.

Do you call the police, keep it for your own amusement?

If that's in the house, the odds of something being there that can kill me just skyrocketed. I'm leaving.

If it was stored properly, the shelf life is indefinite.

Don’t know about the detonators but I don’t see why they also wouldn’t last a significant amount of time.

I see nothing on that package to call the FATFE, and since they are so busy with tax stamps, I mind my own business as a good 'Merican!

I've pushed my luck way too long and my guardian angel is already pissed.

I know enough about that stuff to be dangerous, so I would contact someone who knows what the hell they are doing.

Never invite the man into your life.

You report it and you will end up having to get a lawyer and have your door busted down and your dogs shot.

Walk away or if you must move, the C4 away from the caps.

Your Honor, I have absolutely no independent recollection of the incident as you have related it.

It happened to us about 40 years ago after they hauled my then-stepmother's grandmother away to the nursing home. We had to clean out the huge 2-story Victorian house they had lived in for over 50 years in Wagoner

I found what I thought was a bunch of road flares in the back of a falling down shed at the far corner of the backyard

There were about 10-12 sticks in 4 mason jars with screwed down lids that were rusting at the seals. The sticks had already started to sweat, that's all I'm going to describe here

Dad was still an active duty cop in a nearby town and he was cross-deputized to Wagoner County. It seems like Tulsa county sheriff office came over from the next county and took it away with their equipment

@C4? Isn’t he a doctor in New England?

I’d buy him a drink!

And, isn’t C4 chewy, like bubblegum?

A friend of mine went through the army's combat engineer's school. For some reason, a Sgt didn't have enough C4 to do a couple of demonstrations. He put out the word that he needed some to the other sergeants. Before he knew it he had more than enough sitting on his desk. In fact, he had enough to teach a year or two of that particular course then he needed. They had that stuff squirreled away all over the place.

I voted other

Start a small fire, throw them in ine at a time, stand up wind.

This is an actual approved disposal method.

I would want to keep them but that is serious prison time if caught.

You know what I miss? I miss the days of Sam Drucker selling dynamite out of the General Store to Uncle Joe and the three girls for that whacky get-rich-quick scheme that Joe always has. Thats what I miss.
