Cranfield Posted November 17, 2002 Report Share Posted November 17, 2002 After cleaning and oiling your gun, avoid touching it. The moisture on your skin will cause the rusting. Its recommended that you should handle your guns,(when not shooting) with cotton gloves on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammergun Posted November 17, 2002 Report Share Posted November 17, 2002 Buy yourself a tin of Rangoon oil from your gunshop. It is made by Parker Hale and is usually about £1.75 a tin. This is a very heavy oil which waterproofs exterior metalwork of your gun and is resistant to fingermarks. Rub some on your barrel and other metal parts with a rag and wipe off well any excess. Be careful not to get any on the wood or on the seals where the pellets go in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
