And as our friend Robby the Robot said (read this in your best mechanical voice) "I never use it myself sir, it promotes rust". 50 bonus points to whoever can name the movie.

Since I shoot on a regular basis it's kind of hard for any moisture build up to occur. Also when I shoot, I leave the case open while shooting, allowing the foam to air out. Another thing I do before storing the gun is let it sit out for a while and let it become acclimated to room environment and then wipe it down. The quote was also stated in the movie Gremlins(1984) without the word oxygen in it.

( they make larger ones that toucan buy but I'm not sure )

( they make larger ones that toucan buy but I'm not sure )Hi all, if you know someone who uses a grinder a lot, (machinist, knife sharpener) just ask for the grindings put in cotton spice/tobacco pouch (draw string cheap cotton sac). and place in gun cases. No grinders... take inexpensive superfine steel wool wash in soapy water Use har dryer to dry thouroughly place in a thin cotton sack place in case, again the concept is same water sees your nice thin clean dry iron mesh and goes to it. So if you wipe down the guns berfore putting in the case, this may be enough. Plus ask everyone you know to save those bags that say do not eat...they are going to toss them out anyway!!!The Iron filing concept came from a big can of peanuts it was packed inside as a "getter" as they used to say in Tubes, for electronic devices.hope this is helpful.

I've sure got a lot of metal grindings and filings, you could also fill one of those sacks with chalk powder for a chalk line ( same as keeping a price of chalk in your toolbox )
