Thanks for the responses
John--the storage surfaces are varied. The Parabellum is in its original box, the AK stands (bare) in a rack (both in the safe).
Also interesting to me John is the fact that other unfired NIB Mauser Parabellums (as well as my shooter Parabellum) that I have sitting right next to this one in the safe do not exhibit this tendency, although stored in exactly the same manner. . . oil is clear when applied to a white rag prior to wipe-down.

policeluger-I'm in the southern Central Valley, with refrigerated air, no swamp cooler. Condition is present year-round--air or no air.

I wondered if it was something particular to the bluing process or chemicals used on these (widely different) examples . . .
