Weapons Cache found in Serbia
Earlier this month Serbian police discovered a weapons cache hidden inside a buried oil tank. The weapons were found outside a village that was a former stronghold of an ethnic Albanian militia. It is quite impressive how much hardware and ammunition can be packed away in a relatively small space!
Investigative Judge with the Vranje District Court Staniša Mihajlović said that 100,000 bullets, a recoilless cannon, three mortars, six RPGs, three machine gun stands and 21 anti-tank mines were recovered from the tank.

The Lewis and Clark expedition buried black powder in readiness for their return trip, sealed in lead cannisters. The lead was melted to provide bullets.
Looks like it’s a bunch of 7.62 X 54R and 7.62 X 39 in the cans, plus all the heavy duty stuff. I guess they haven’t found the other oil drum that has all of the Mosin Nagants, Dragonovs, and AK’s to shoot up all of that, plus the .50 cal MG’s to shoot up all that linked ammo. There’s probably a third oil drum hiding the army that was supposed to use all of that stuff.
Interesting that they didn’t find any assaultrifles. Just heavy weapons and ammo.
I wonder how many caches like these are hiding around the United States. I still want to know how they found that.
BrassSlinger, that size … not many … at least not nearly as many as Ireland!

Wow. Looks like he must have been a boy-scout. You know “Be Prepared”. I guess he just didn’t trust the government. A lot of that going around today.
Impressive… He shoulda packed my ruck sack back in the day…
Imagine the can opener for the oil tank.
i don’t see a big frickin sardine can “key” or tab like on my cans!
there is no way that you could pack everything that is shown in that single tank.. it was probably more than one oil tank that was found..
Look at all those ammo cans. They look to be in excellent condition.
WHEW! How did whoever stuff all that into the tank? Where’s the opening for it all? I hope it wasn’t welded shut (shudder).
And how was it found?
The whole thing, beginning to end, would be an interesting story.
B, they don’t say how they found it. They were probably tipped off. I mean how else do you find something like that?!?!
Used oil drum=less corrosion. I’m gonna get some 55gal. Tanks from work lol
Wow the guy must have packed sardines for a living, 100K in ammo does not take a lot of space, I know ;-}
But to get the mines etc in there was a feat in and of itself
Andy’s right! The discovery of all that stuff could depress prices of surplus ammo.
That is just a huge cache to fit inside that oil tank.
SO that’s where I left that. Boy, is the missus going to be pissed. We had to cut a lot of coupons to buy that stuff up…
toaster802, LOL
How long before this picture shows up accompanying an article demanding we close the gun show loophole?
100,000 ? Price drop on surplus ammo!
Clearly this was just a guy preparing for the zombie invasion. Or the robopocalypse.
