I have been considering recently how best to water proof and store ammunition to protect it, both against high humidity as well as water damage (i.e. flooding). I've seen a great many people suggest purchasing GI surplus ammo cans and packing them with dessicant or simply buying military surplus from the Eastern Block which is already sealed.
My question is this: I've seen products like the Foodsaver where you can place food, clothing, practically anything at all, inside and seal it in special bags. The machine then removes all the air and seals off the bag. Would this work for ammunition or would taking all the air out in this fashion somehow harm my ammunition?
