I had an unusual event recently. I have a Colt Combat Commander 45 acp in satin stainless. I clean it with Hoppe’s No. 9. I lube it with Outers Gun Oil.
I took the gun out for a shoot on the 4th and it had a green film in various lubed places. It shot fine. The gun had been in the cabinet for about 3 months since last shoot and cleaning. It is not a humidity controlled gun cabinet. Just a standard wood upright.
What could be causing the green film? It’s like the oil turned green. Is there certain lubes to use with stainless steel?
Any help would be appreciated.
