    Default Coastal Dwellers and Moisture Control

    For all of you that are in the fortunate position the be a Coastal Dwellers, how do you control the issue of Moisture Control in your safe and storage areas for your firearms and other related accessories? Yes, making sure that all metal is protected by oil or some other protective coating, what do you do in regard to Primers (other than keeping them in the original packaging)?

    I recently got one of those moisture control bags with the crystals in and I chucked it in my safe. It was there for a about 4-6 weeks and I was shocked to see that it has turned to complete gel in this period of time. I stay in PE and I know the moisture is high but was amazed by this.

    Any solutions that you care to share?

    Remington makes several moisture management devices http://www.remington.com/products/ac...humidifier.asp which I use and it works and it's re-usable

    and this other model http://www.remington.com/products/ac...humidifier.asp

    and also their Moisture Guard Products http://www.remington.com/products/ac...technology.asp

    For firearms and knives Marine Tuf-Cloth has an excellent rep see Sentry Solutions http://www.sentrysolutions.com/welcome.shtml and this one http://www.sentrysolutions.com/TufClothkew.shtml and see the Marine Tuf-Cloth for "extreme" protection.

    I am studying an awesome brand of leg fighting which was inspired by dung beetles and I think my brand of Kraft Manure is superior to all other styles ever invented. Furthermore I challenge all other manurists to a rolling contest where we shall establish whose manure ball is the biggest! I shall call it Honest Kraft Manure and declare it superior to all other brands of manure and will tell you that I have claimed the lineage directly to Imshi the great Dragon Kru Master Beetler who invented manuring, by gathering all manure from different animals together and making it work as the worlds most effective fertilizer. I proved myself by being members of not one but three super elite special gardening departments who were responsible for spreading manure to combat weed infestations!

    I also have some of those silica crystal bags that I chucked in the safe. It seems to help, but I still have to clean all the toys every now & then, regardless.

    Prone to random kindness, lecherous behaviour, imitating D-cups at speed and an outstanding sense of humour. If you don't agree, well fuck you.
