Confederate: note the part about an "oven".
I grew up along the coast. I often spent time at beaches and rocky coastline many hours away from any oven into which I could put a gun.
Under such circumstances, with a GP100 and a dry towel/undershirt/etc. alone I could probably save the gun post-dunking, stainless or blue, even without fresh water. I would have to completely detail strip it and hand-dry *everything* but it would be doable. I might end up using a bit of spit and then wipe on areas that are hard to reach. The bore would be tricky, I'd have to rip off a strip of the edge of the cloth and use it as a bore snake. But I could save that gun.
If I was 2+ hours from home with an S&W, even stainless, life would suck much more.
