A gun is only a tool, no better or worse than the man behind it.

The new ASSRA magazine has a test report on it. The writer used it in a trapdoor that had a pristine, mirror bore.  He believed what they said about it being non-corrosive.  For whatever reason I cannot fathom, he put his nice trapdoor away without cleaning it to test the non-corrosive statement.  When he cleaned it 6 days later, his previously mirror bore was rusty and pitted from end to end.  Basically he ruined a fine old rifle.  What a shame.

I wouldn't touch that stuff with a 10 foot pole!
