So, lately as Oregon has entered its normal weather pattern of rain interrupted with moments of showers. A gun related thought has dawned on me,
There are all sorts of people who open carry for one reason or the other, Bike Patrol Security officers, LEO's, even regular joes who open carry. At some point their gun will get wet, especially since most of the LEO's out here have short duty jackets that leave their duty belt accessible. Assuming that your gun is properly maintained would this rain be a significant threat to reliability? If so how would one prevent reliability issues?
I assume a light coat of oil and a good wipe down at the end of the day is the minimum you should do but anything more?
