I remember about 15 years ago during renovation of an old building in Vancouver ChinaTown workers found 2 (at least?) Lewis Guns. sadly they were lost to the Police.

Afghanistan caches
 
The troops in Afghanistan have been accellerating the process of the bad guys' hiding stuff and not letting them find it again. Mostly by killing off the ones who know. I remember reading contact reports or patrol reports describing mud covered cavities with smalls arms or ammunition. Sometimes it was Soviet Muj' era crap. Other times more modern hides. Every so often we'd see stories of Taliban buying their spam cans of ammo in the market because they'd either shot off what they had and couldn't get any more through their supply lines. Kind of felt sorry for them to have to pay retail for what was originally moved as wholesale.
