Ok the guns got wet, real wet, now what should I do?

Don't feel bad, Peter. Shortly after I got my carry license, and before I had worked out my "restroom routine", I dropped my carry gun in the toilet. Before I had used it, fortunately.

I did the field strip plus grips off routine, blow dryer, then oven bake and re-lube. No bad after-effects.

I did get my restroom routine worked out pretty quick after that.

Hahaha! Yes, the "restroom rotine" can be tricky. I still haven't figured out quite what I'll do when I have to take a dump at a public restroom. Thankfully, it's a rather rare occurance.

As Al said; spray with WD40- let penetrate/soak/displace then blow out with hairdryer. That's it your water is gone!! Then clean as usual and relube.

For storage I wrap the gun in a oil rag or sometimes a gun sock that has been silicone treated.. keeps the gun okay and I live in a tropical environment!! I also use some dessicants in the safe to trap moisture.

You did well, Grasshopper .... for what good is a gun, if it can't get rained on now and then?
