That's right. I use WD40 on my CAI Nagant. The thing does not worth BreakFree. I use BreakFree on AR15, works fine, right formula for shooter. If this is for long term storage, you're not going to look at it every week, then keep it "dry" -- not only water free, keep it liquid free.

But don't shoot it dry though. Apply BreakFree before shooting.

BTW, if the thing is full of heavy rust, LiquidWrench (tm) works well.
