Do you have an air compressor at home in your garage? When you get done using it do you let the air out of the tank? Why do you do that? Because compressed air has moisture in it and it will rust the bottom of the air compressor tank. I always learned it anytime something was under compression it is going to have a certain amount of moisture in it. So that is why I never used air compressed oil on my guns. So just to be safe I always use Gun oil in a can on my guns. They are too critical to take the chance.

Jimmy, respectfully, there's a big difference between aerosol compressants and compressed air in my shop.
May God bless America and those who defend her.

I still won't take the chance. I like Gun oil in a plastic bottle. And Clenzoil has always been my favorite. Good luck.

Jimmy, just for information's sake, who were you previously on this board? I see you have been here since Jan. 2002 with 4914 posts, but your screen name is relatively new here, as best as I can remember anyway.

JR I have always had the same screen name. I just dropped out of shooting, guns, trap shooting and the whole works for several years. So I am now just getting back into it. I'm starting to remember terms like dolls head, underlever, swamped ribs, etc.. If you look at the thread about Ned Scwings that I brought back I posted on it several years ago. I sold 7 Model 21s and a few other guns and paid cash for a Corvette back around 2011. I kinda got interested in cars and other hobbies. I had arm problems and I couldn't hold a gun, so I quit trap and skeet shooting for some years. But now that problem has gotten better, so I just rejoined my shooting club and the ATA recently. I kept a couple model 21s and I have a project going on right now that I will share with the board when it is finished- which should be in the next few weeks. So forgive me if I am a little bit out of touch. Several of the guys I knew on here are now gone. Just as the guys at my shooting club have all passed away and now I feel like a stranger there. But I have always had the same name. I just haven't been a while for a while until recently. Take care and good luck. Jimmy W

I do remember Wonko the Sane. He used to get on here all the time and scream Yabba- Dabba-Doo or some crazy saying. I tried to get him to say it when I was pulling his chain about blocking the barrels on Berettas, but he didn't catch on what I was doing. .Haha.

Today I have take my lovely single barrel gun with the snap cap inside and have a sad surprise. The cotton had rust and I had to clean the inside of the barrel very well.
Some of you were wright when advice me.
Best regards!

Oh no!! You mean you left that snap cap in there for nine months? Oh well!! 🙄 Take a brass cleaning brush from a cleaning rod- stick it in a drill and run it in and out of the barrel. That should work.
