What’s in the Mystery Box in my safe (contest)

[snorko]

**Winners announced, see post #83.**I have a mystery box in my safe. On the floor of my safe there is a box that is there to prop up short carbines so they reach the notches above. This box took the place of a S&W custom shop case when I sold the gun. I swear on the brilliance of John Moses Browning I do not remember what is inside.

Description: brown corrugated box measuring approximately 12"x15"x6".
It could be full of cookies, ammo, bacon, magazines, Jimmy Hoffa’s ashes, I truly have no idea.

So, post your guess as to the contents and win a prize. Be detailed, if you guess ammo, give a round count and caliber/gauge. If you guess bacon, estimate # of strips, weight, maple versus smoked, etc. The winner will have a choice of one of the following:

Keep your eyes shut if the box is opened.

 

[IndianaSigma]

If it is bacon, then you're going to have some explaining to do as to why it was wasted......but my guess would be that it is empty which puts me at much better odds than actually guessing something that may be in it.

[JohnP82]

and some old gun oil

 

[Fordtough25]

Gun manuals?

 

[snorko]

All good guesses so far, makes e want to take a peek.

 

[Westside]

I am going empty box you had laying around. My theory is you mentioned no writing on the box. Usually boxes with no external text are used to house a part of something larger within another box or case. Therefore I vote empty.

 

[scottka]

Im going with assorted gun (reading) magazines and manuals to a few different guns.

 

[indytechnerd]

a few old phone books and magazines, just to keep the box from crumpling due to the weight of the guns. To be specific...

1 copy - 1987 yellow pages
1 copy - 1987 business white pages
14 copies, non-sequential - american rifleman
4 copies - random hunting magazine
1 copy - Playboy, March 1989
1 copy - 1987-88 Sears Catalog

 

[Hornett]

If you haven't needed anything so far, it MUST be parts.
I am guessing:
some AK or AR trigger parts
Probably an old 10 round Glock magazine or two
leftover sights from a glock
various recoil springs
and a cheap Tasco scope.

 

[revsaxon]

Its empty!

 

[TVon]

It's full of packing peanuts - 413 to be exact.

 

[Scutter01]

Chupacabra bones.
