I use Bore Store bags too. But I went to a sewing store and bought some heavy mylar (spelling?) material. I cut the mylar into about 2.5 X 3.5 strips and had them sewed on the outside on the bag (only 3 sides). I then can label the bags on the outside.

For storage only, I use vasoline petroleum jelly and apply liberally. When I take them out to the range, I wipe off the vasoline and put a light coat of gun oil on the guns that I am going to shoot. When I return home, I clean the guns and reapply vasoline. Then I store in a dry place.

Be careful not to store the bare guns directly on carpeting. The carpeting contains chemicals that will ruin your guns.
