ok guys just for my own experiment i went and shot my gun a trad pusuist lt. had my regular range day then the last 3 shots i didnt swab and didn't clean the gun when i got home. i let it sit just over 2 weeks in my house ac no heat yet i live in fl. took it out today plug came out same as allways no stickin and then rand a hoppy's swab through the gun not a patch, then looked through and no rust at all!! patched it clean and no sign of any rust in the barrel or on the patches. i'm impressed was scared cause i love this gun and felt real bad doin this to it i wanted to clean it everyday real bad! was gonna wait 3 weeks but i just couldnt take it any longer. but the stuff does what they say it does i'm well sure of that.
