Hello Gentlemen:
Our quail season just starts here in central Mexico.
I use a 20 ga Pedro Arrizabalaga shotgun that once belong to my granfather. The shotgun is in excelent condition and I want to keep that way as much as posible, but also I plan to use it untill I passed to my son (in many, many years, I hope!).
The advice I need is: how can I protect the barrels from hand contact in the forend area?. I use a leather glove, but I think the shotgun starts to show some faded in the blueing.
I have Brichwood Stock Wax and, perhaps, I can apply a thick coat in the barrels to avoid friction with my gloved hand.
What do you think is the best way to protect that area from continue use?
As always, thank you for all the advice you can give to me.
Best,
