I use the Food Saver Brand. Interesting to note that in the past, we put up the fish we caught in a zip lock bag with water to keep it from being freezer burnt. I've since found that putting the fillets on a cookie sheet, freezing them, and finally doing the vacume pack will make the fillets much more firm after cooking than freezing in water. Don't know why, but its a marked result., and it takes up less room in the freezer.
Fresh meat needs to be partially frozen before packing. If not some moisture will come out of the meat and ruin the seal.
I have bags of packed ammo. It will remain shiney after a couple of years. I keep one bag from years ago as a test sample.
The vacume process removes almost all of moisture in the air. Clothes, etc that are vacume packed take up 1/2 the room in a back pack, using them only when necessary. The list goes on.
