    A few people on here a while ago recommended using the CRC long life anti rust on the outside of your rifles in the safe. I've had no exterior rust since using it. I do wipe a rag sprayed with it over the rifles every month or two though. Cheers

    Worth pointing out never use crc 556 on blued guns, There are rust removing ingredients inside and you will deteriorate the bluing of nice guns.
