RE: barrel seasoning?
1950KID ,
sales job or not , the product does work . Sure , I could use another product , but if it works don' t fix it .
Randy ,
steel and cast iron are made from the same mineral . My cast iron skillets and steel bores are clean and rust free as a result of thorough cleaning , and seasoning . Whatever seals the metal' s pores seasons the barrel by keeping moisture away from it' s surface . The choice of " seasoner" is entirely up to the gun' s owner , use what works for you .
Among the many things I did in the Navy was corrosion control on aircraft , I was also the only one in my class to ace that part of the curriculum . These copters were constantly exposed to salt spray , and we sealed every exposed surface to prevent corrosion . Rust is a form or corrosion , and sealing your bore' s pores through seasoning prevents rust .
