I’m a transplant from Ohio, now in Charleston SC, and getting ready for what looks like my first Hurricane. I’m nervous and a little excited all at once.

I store my gems in each in a zip lock gallon bag after a spay of WD40. Put them in a rubbermaid box and seal the box with them and store high. I wonder how any survived this long??

In the event of an antediluvian inundation time is the key
After a storm in NJ, my neighbors log splitter was completely under water for a day. After water subsided we removed the sparkplug - squirted oil into the cylinder oiled the hydraulics and hand cycled a few times re-assembled and 20 minutes later the thing was running If it had been left for a day or two would have been a solid block of rust. A complete strip - clean -and oil and I am sure your Luger would also be good Only real concern would be the grips - but I do not think WD-40 in a plastic bag helps the grips either |

That's great luck Eric! But does that mean that god had it in for everyone else who wasn't so Lucky?

Florida. Nice place to visit, but I would NEVER live there, especially near the coast. When it gets cold here in Fairbanks, I put another layer of clothing on. Can't dress for 6 feet of storm surge, or 100+ mph winds. Not happening for this kid. Plus, there are no mountains there.....

Her bluster through the Carolinas was just that. Lots of wind and rain, not much else.
