Merick, Now you've done it.
Just to set the record straight about WD-40.
It was developed by the US government for use in missile silos.
WD= water displacement
40= formula #40
Main ingredient= fish oil... which is why it hardens over time as the solvents dissapate. It's actually a great preservative, but when used on firearms it needs to be applied frequently , which dissolves the old oil and adds fresh solvents/oil.
