Just figured I start a poll.

My XD has zero rust and Im wonderin how rare that is

mr0w1 · 04-19-2005, 05:45 PM

Had it. Saw a doctor, got rid of it.

Actually, had it once. To the gun's credit, any gun would've had some rust after that. Nothing really big or stupid, but I'm too lazy to type it out.

Didn't want to vote "Yes" because I had it; it isn't reoccuring like Herpes.

Never had it.

Just used a light oil on the gun for the first 1/2 year.

Now use Armadillo and liquid teflon.

Store the gun in a unheated garage where I leave the garage door open most of the time. (No, nobody will ever find it in my garage unless they remove most everything out of it.)

I do use moisture absorbing packets in the gun case.

I think hwe have had this poll not more than a week ago

slight surface rust on the grip safety and in the grooves of the slide.

Had some light surface rust come through on the slide. I cleaned it up with Eezox and now keep it wiped down with a silicon cloth. Problem fixed, except for when the slide slipped out of my fingers and bit me the other day when I was checking the chamber (Downside to Silicon Cloth). Ouch.

There's at least one poll in there, and it was last posted to 7 days ago. Come on. Use the search feature. Do you really think the rust question is THAT original?

Psssh...
