I' ve had a safe in my basement for about 11 years with a de-humidifier rod and I have' nt had any trouble what so ever, No rust at all on any of my guns, I used to take them all out and check them periodically, but now when I get done with one I clean and put it in there and forget about it, some of them had' nt been oiled or cleaned in several months, and some I don' t use any longer have' nt been re-oiled in years. The Golden Rod is the way to go.


Also KB, since you have' nt bought your safe yet most of the gunsafe dealers will throw in a Golden Rod de-humidifier rod if you work it just right.
