Living in an old humid house has it's downsides... Fortunately we're moving into a newer less humid house soon[ish].
In the meantime I guess I need to keep things extra oiled. My Sig p226 has rusting sights and my Wilson Combat's sights are starting to rust a little bit as well - both are carry firearms so they tend to rub the oil/protectant off pretty quickly.
Any tips, beyond making sure to apply oil regularly, that may help?
The rust is minor, at this point, and a little steel wool TLC fixed it up without an issue but I'd like to do what I can to help make sure it doesn't become a larger issue.
Beyond that - my general rant is about rust in general. Rust on my car, rust on my reloading press, rust on my guns, etc... I use all of this stuff regularly and do my best to take care of it and yet it still manages to find some way/some place to rust on me!
