snipers eye Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 make sure they are stored in a dry place/safe,wipe down with oily cloth,if rust is not heavy,a good wipe down with oily cloth should remove it,lightly rub oil on all metel parts before storeing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 let it warm up to room temp then and only then clean and oil it. Remove light rusting with 3 in 1 type oil and the very finest grade steel wool (not too light an oil WD40 etc. or you will start to take down the bluing). while the gun is colder than air temp condensation will occur. Is your safe warm and dry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1steele Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Your better off with a green plastic washing up scouring pad with your standard gun oil and giving it a light rub down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to re-grain stainless after welding with a green, as can be witnessed by the metal "ball of swarf" type kitchen scourers you might just as well pick up a "mean green" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes less is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
