The Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute (SAAMI) has produced a free 30-minute video showing the effects of fire on stored ammunition. Some structures we may respond to are known to store amounts of ammunition, and it’s safe to assume that most residences have some present. The video shows over 400,000 rounds of ammunition being burned, dropped, shot and crushed (under a bulldozer). A simulated gun store with copious cases of ammunition is burned, as is an entire semi-trailer of ammo. You will be surprised at the results!
