Saving your guns promptly in a flood is vital. In 1979 mate of mine in Massachusetts (he worked for S&W) had his monthly day at the range cut short by a deluge of biblical proportions and promptly headed home but came to a Police roadblock where the road was full of water as it dipped under a rail bridge. The cop looked at the big Chevy Blazer and said "You'll get through OK in that." When the roof of the Blazer disappeared under the water it finally stopped and it was more than a minute later before my mate appeared with an armload of pistols and ammo that he dropped on the bonnet of the cop car, then went back under for the rest! The cop delivered him home! The guns all cleaned up like new because of his quick action.
