ammunition storage
Where rounds wait
Ammunition storage refers to facilities, containers, or designated areas where ammunition is kept securely.
Military installations maintain ammunition storage bunkers or magazines built to contain explosions and prevent unauthorized access.
The term also covers smaller-scale storage—gun safes, lockers, or cabinets where civilians keep ammunition separate from firearms: Proper ammunition storage is required by law in some jurisdictions.
