When i visit the range, I put my rifle to use and by that i mean I've had times where smoke comes up from underneath the handguards, and I figured it was just the oil cooking off.
It's a new rifle, taken only twice to the range so far, both times it's gotten hot enough to smoke a little from underneath the handgoards. Now, when I took apart the handguards to see what I've done i noticed what looked like rust! I oiled it down, and i can no longer see it, but it gave me a good scare. I can't imagine I've already cooked off the park by firing 120 rounds, sustained fire 15-30 rounds a minute! It's a LW barrel but even so!
Any input would be appreciated, I'm wondering if this is normal.. especially for a BCM barrel
