All the best!

Renaissance Wax and EEZOX. They each make the barrels look good and protect them from rust very well.

Oil on the exterior of a firearm attracts fine particles of airborne grit. Every time you wipe a gun down with more oil you're rubbing this abrasive grip into it. Nuff said!

She looked good holding up those Pine trees. smile

I suspect she is long gone....my guess is it was the one Bass Pro had listed for about 8 grand a year or so back.

Yes! Hope all is well Greg. We will have to try and get together later this summer so I can shoot that Churchill of mine which you have.
