Greetings!
I have gotten multiple opinions, but what is everyone's opinion on whether or not you should store your surplus long guns with the leather sling attached? Has anyone had any rusting problems with this? FYI, i typically treat my leather slings with picards dressing lightly if they are dry, and I typically oil all visible parts of the guns with rem oil prior to storage. I saw the wall that Ian from forgotten weapons keeps his french rifles on and they had their slings attached, which makes me think about this. Thanks!
