The Food Saver is used by the guys in Pararescue for individual med packs, Trauma, Burns, Suture Kits, etc. I use them for reloaded ammo packs and handguns in a rough situation, like saltwater exposure or submersion. A boat gun is kept dry and ready for action, load it, oil it, seal it and cut the notch, walah ready with a zip for a shark, snake, gator, etc. Your ammo stays bright and shinny and with a tag, inside you know exactly what the load is.

I stumbled on this while trying to keep small parts for gun shows clean, oiled, visable and without having to wipe the stuff every day. Told the son who is a CRO and head of reserch now, so every pararescue outfit has a half dozen or so machines in their load-out rooms. They work great for many, many things.
