I store my pistol here in FL for the summer. Unfortunately severe rusting occured over the summer & ruined it. As a new gun owner, it just made me sick to have my ignorance cause damage to the gun. I wrapped it in a plastic bag with some silica jell, then placed in a locked drawer. It is no longer a pretty gun! What should I have done? Thanks to all that will help me.
