I don't have any idea or clue why that pad did what it did. Pads on other guns did not change, ie, get worse.
Here's what it looks like:
1st picture is the west end of my root cellar (gun room). 4 concrete block walls and a cement floor and ceiling under our back porch. Nice and dry but I do run a dehumidifier in warmer months. You'll notice the 2 gun rack I made in wood shop when I was a freshman in high school back in 1950.
2nd picture a little closer showing my vertical gun chest and the horizontal one that looks more like a settee.
3rd and 4th picture with my horizontal gun chest open. Note that it is a Treadlock. It will accommodate 24 double guns nicely in the three racks that I made that hold 8 guns each. Those are all Fox's in there.
And Daryl good buddy, thanks for your offer. But dam, I lost your phone number.
