Mills
I have a DHE I use. I had the inside packed with grease to keep out the elements. I am told this is an old time solution. I then use BLU corrosion preventative on all exposed metal. It has worked well so far. David |

David, a good gunsmith could probably drill and tap a hole in the frame to accept a grease fitting... kinda like having "Bearing Buddies" on your boat trailer

Wax, but I also look real carefully at the guides boat some are not safe for anything much less a Parker. Use a good waterproof case no matter how good his outfit is. Once in the blind not real hard to keep the gun dry. Currituck is mostly fresh depending on the wind direction, not Ocean salty anyhow.

One word: WAX. Pure carnuba wax such as IBIZ is best but any non-abrasive car wax will do. And put lots on. No such thing as too much. I wax all my duck guns, salt water exposure or not. Lacquer thinner will take it off when/if the time comes.

After a hard day of gunning in the salt marshes it's always a good idea to spray it off with fresh water. Or is that for the motor ???
