I was wondering if anyone else has had any problems with rusting on their Ruger LC9? I've had mine since December and the slide has started rusting in the last month. I carry the gun everyday and work outside in Texas so it doesn't live the easiest life. I've tried Breakfree and various other oils to keep the thing from rusting and they don't seem to work. It's only rusting on the side of the pistol against my body and is carried in a Crossbreed Minituck. I know the part of the slide that's rusting has no direct contact with my skin at all. Any tips would be much appreciated. I think I may switch to my 442 until I get the LC9 sorted out, I haven't had any rust problems with the aluminum framed 442. I haven't had rusting problems with any other firearm I currently own, it makes me wonder about the Ruger.
