Shock resistant mounting structures for fuze systems. The shock resistant mounting structures may comprise: a shock resistant base cap and a shock resistant washer. The shock resistant base cap may comprise a circular cap housing and a plurality of first cripple studs disposed within the circular cap housing. The circular cap housing may be configured to engage a flange end of a fuze and may be adapted to snugly fit within a fuze well. The shock resistant washer may comprise a ring-shaped housing and one or more second cripple studs radially disposed within the ring-shaped housing. The ring-shaped housing may have a center opening adapted to engage a fuze body. When installed, the shock resistant base cap and shock resistant washer may be disposed within the fuze well and may minimize or divert shock loading energy from entering a fuze.

An apparatus for storing and/or shipping explosive components, such as shaped charges, is generally described. In an embodiment, the apparatus includes a shielding assembly. The shielding assembly may include a shielding panel having a body made of metal foam and an aperture formed within the body. In an embodiment, the body is sandwiched between an upper and a lower layer. The shielding panel is configured to receive a shaped charge. Thus, the apparatus is capable of at least preventing and/or limiting ballistic transfer in the event of detonation of a shaped charge.

Ammunition boxes may be equipped with a cohesive and adhesive shell restraining overlay adapted to restrain ammunition shells in a stabilized position. The shell restraining overlay provides sufficient adhesiveness to restrain a housed ammunition shell at a desired shell position, but allows for relatively effortless shell release without creating excessive movement or noise. The stabilizing overlay also stabilizes the shells from inadvertent spillage from the ammunition box.

A blast containment system for trash cans includes a donut-shaped bag having a sealed donut-shaped bottom positioned at the base of the trash can, and an open donut-shaped top positioned and retained at a top periphery of the trash can. An open-ended tubular region extends through the bag between its donut-shaped top and donut-shaped bottom. A rigid container having an open top is disposed in the tubular region of the bag with its open top being coupled to the donut-shaped top of the bag. A liquid fills the bag.
