rusting

Yes, if you live in a humid environment the padding will absorbe moisture from the air and rust your gun. If you live in a dry climate such as Arizona it's not a problem unless the padding is already wet.

Yes Tikka it is true. My nephew brought a lyman muzzle loader over to me that had been in a case for about 3 months. This gun was in bad shape with rust. It took me about a week to get the gun cleaned up and ready to reblue. I would suggest storing guns somewhere other then a padded case.
