I recently bought an RV. (1992) it hasn’t been driven in three years (since 2014). It was AS IS WHERE IS with all the inventory in the tool boxes and cubbies. In the back “bedroom” on the bare wood floor are two ammunition boxes that are STUCK to the floor. Its old and dirty in there and I am cleaning it out. So I cannot tell if the boxes are stuck to the floor with an outside spill of some sort or if whatever is inside the boxes has glued them down. In my fantastic imagination it MUST (not really) be full of old AK 47 rounds that have sweated and glued the box down with nitro glycerin and I’m gonna blow up if I open the boxes. Fight my ignorance!!! Do I need to call the local bomb squad or can I spray down the box with vinegar and open them safely? Yes it has been in extreme weather. Yes it has been vibrated harshly in the ride home from south Florida to Georgia. No I doubt that the ammo (if that is whats in there) has been cared for properly. Any suggestions will be both appreciated and highly scrutinized before being taken seriously.😉 --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-found-some-old-ammunition-boxes-theyre-stuck/790428)._
