RE: protecting your gun

Quote:

ORIGINAL: Rhody Hunter

Would it be a good idea to seal the barrel or the intire gun and vacum seal it from the air?
Would this protect it from moisture and possible rust ?

It will still rust, moisture can, and will get in, just from tempature changes.
You can get something called rig grease.
Put a fine layer on all the metal parts.
I hope this helps.
