[QUOTE="keppler, post: 1345183, member: 279"] Thanks to everyone for the ideas. Rod, I use wax on my firearms when I put them away for the season, before they go into the gun socks. Works great on the metal and keeps the wood in great shape also. I had thought about it but have not tried it on the reloading stuff. Is there a brand or type that you like best? DrJeff, I had thought of putting them in something like freezer bags but have been unable to find small desiccant bags to toss in with them. Are the ones your talking about small enough to do this? Great tip about the storage of house hold chemicals too. I've worked in the chemical field for years with everything from uranium to nerve agents and most of the time it's the common everyday chemical that will cause the most problems. It's something a lot of people wouldn't think about. DANNY-L, I like the vacuum seal and may have to convince the wife we need one. Last time I looked at them they were reasonably priced and should pull out the moisture in the bag and prevent any from entering. I'll for sure take a closer look at these. Should work good for primers also. flatwins and criticalbass, I drove up to Sports World in Tulsa the afternoon to pick up advance tickets to the big gun show. Of course I had to do a little shopping while we were there. Couldn't find the products you mentioned but did pick up a can of Birchwood Casey Barricade to try. It seems I heard or read about it awhile back and it had good reviews so I'll give it a try and see what happens. Thanks to all again for the ideas. [/QUOTE]
