    Pretty expensive. You can buy this on Amazon for a little more (which includes shipping so it makes sense). There are plenty of Faraday bags and cases available today, many of which meet or exceed MIL-PRF-81705 although not all of them market their products as such. I do see the need to EMP protect sensitive electronics, and sealing them up tight is a good idea. Also, I do not understand the idea behind using these for guns and ammunition. I imagine it's just more marketing mumbo-jumbo.

    So...could I not reuse all of the bags from work that contained sensitive electronic components? Sealed, of course.

    That's what stood out to me, almost all the pictures had a handgun in them... didn't make a lot of sense but then again, I'm just a simple simian.

    If you look at their clip you'll find that this bag can be sealed with an iron and used to store items in need for emergencies or to have paper work, titles, insurance and other handy items in time of need.

    Yep...you can seal a number of types of bags with the irons.

    The guns and ammo mags in the advertising blurb is just marketing floss....they are appealing to paranoid preppers...and which American prepper worth their salt is without Gunz.???

    Much the same with Malborough cigarretes...an image of a tough masculine looking cowboy mounted on a magnificent horse, advertising cancer sticks was a very successful marketing tool...given that very few smokers were tough looking cowboys who had seen, let alone ridden a horse. The cowboy and horse being mere props...as would seem to be the case of pistols in expensive EMP baggery instead of more economical ziplock bags.

    I suppose when the electronic gun locks get mandated, those bags will be a good place to keep your guns. But for now, they are just the right size for a laptop and cell phone. Now, the question is, will that EMP hit when I have the laptop out and I'm working on it?

    at least one computing device should be stored in EMP protected storage at all times

    then devices should be rotated on a schedule

    I am assuming you are referring to a coronal mass exclusion.

    That means you need three, because two have to be out for cloning, with one still in the bag. Then switch as necessary so you have three identical machines. And, uv cuss, the EMP must not hit while the bag(s) are open for the switcheroo.

    Uv cuss, chelly wants an EMP proofed room ----
