I have an 870 Express I use for trap/sporting clays on weekends and HD during the week. After a workout on the weekend, the receiver and barrel (to a degree) will be absolutely furry with rust by Tuesday. I keep the gun in the coolest driest place in the house, but it still rusts almost instantly. 000 steel wool will clean up the rust, but I am also removing metal. Is there an oil or some protectant that will keep the gun in good health?
I suspect the rust has to do with condensation from bringing the gun outside, shooting, and into the AC house, but I am not sure. It seems to happen all at once if conditions are right.
Advice?
