Personally I ,would never use WD40 on firearms. It's fine for garage doors and rusted metal not firearms. I use 3 in 1 oil. Any light machine oil is fine. I do not shoot my collectible lugers. I store them open with a good coating of oil inside and out. I give them a good cleaning once a year. With no use they really don't need this but it's fun to look them over. I have been using 3 in 1 oil for lugers and many other firearms for over 65 years with no problems. I am sure we all have our own way to maintain our firearms. If it has worked for years keep it up. However, to me, some products should be avoided. WD40 is one of them. Bill
