Storing Guns in Cloth or Soft Cases

[Snattlerake]

Do not store in a case!

Bought an 1100 from a co-worker. He had bought it on a store closing sale. Never fired it. Store it in a soft case.

Was getting divorced and needed to sell.
I guess he forgot about running his mouth on what he bought it for. Took it to pawn shop and when removed from case, covered in rust. They offered $10.
He brought it to me, asking more he paid. I offered his asking minus a blue.
He agreed to $75.

A wipedown with an oil soaked rag, followed by 0000, then another wipedown. It looked like new. No pits, just surface.

Mine get cased for transport, not storage.

Damn! I gotta go check mine now!

If it was that crappy Remington matte blue it’ll rust just by looking at it.

Yes especially some of those 870 Express.

Silicone impregnated sleeves with luggage tags for both long guns and handguns. Hard cases with reusable disiccant
packets. I don't have any pictures but it works for me. R
