What To Do With A Wet Luger?

MikeP · 09-02-2017, 09:53 PM

I had many a wet soaking weapon in VN.
Just dried them and applied oil.
I had a near new tan .45 holster that got darkened after being submerged a few time.
You can bet just about any military weapon in history got drenched more than once.
Dry and oil. Not much else to do as it will happen again if you are in the field.
I would certainty inspect any flooded pieces and clean and oil them as soon as possible.
Friend got some pieces messed up in Katrina, cosmetically at least.
