    Picked up 30 packs of assorted heirloom vegetable seeds for stocking. 80% complete with my raised bed garden this weekend. Moving next towards canning supplies for the harvest later on.

    Looking for the old fashion Ball or Atlas glass canning jars with the glass top. I am sick of the metal lids developing rust.

    Tattler Lids and seals don't rust. Others here will have to tell you if you can remove the metal rings after canning. I know you can remove the metal rings after canning with non reusable metal lids. In fact it is advised so you do not have a rust problem. ... jus sayin'
     
  6. Couldn't you just spray some clear laquer, or for that matter maybe just primer (Krylon) on the lids if one wanted to minimize rust (applied after the cans are sealed, not before, so as to not interfere with a good seal)? I've never heard anyone suggest that, but seems like an option if one were putting their cans in an environment which could rust.

    Got these little pouches for my BOB/Daily Carry bag. They were a little expensive for what they are but I'm a sucker for anything made in the USA and to boot they are made in a LEED certified factory. These dumb little things go back to my obsession for designing bags and technical items. I also ordered a knife from DanielRP. I will be patiently awaiting for that in the next 2-3 weeks.

  8. Do you have a link to where you bought those pouches from? I'm always on the lookout for things like that to help organize.

    topodesigns.com, there stuff is super good. As good as say a TAD bag or Kifaru but not tactical.

    6- Ruger 10/22 (Kommufornia) 10-round magazines, 2- Trimag copplers, 2 Trimag pouches. 100 rounds of .223 (.13/round). Happy with today's purchase. I really home this Ammo box limit crud ends soon. I miss the days of being able to go buy a couple thousand rounds of what ever you choose.

    Found WWB 5.56 at the Wall-Mart a couple towns over from me. Had swmbo & notsominime in tow so I managed to snag 180 rounds for $.61 a round! (Me so happy!) They also had nice selection of Mountain House FD pouches so three days worth of pouches went home in the back of the truck.

    Today was a good day.
