Gun socks...good or bad

[Dean Romig]

I have never had a problem using silicone or silicone treated gun socks.

That said, silicone is a 'mother' to remove if you ever want to have the gun refinished... and the silicone will prevent an acceptable finish if it isn't entirely removed.

I've been using them for years with no ill effect.

I am a +1 to Daryl's comment.

I have all my guns in these socks, and have stored them this way for some years now. I make sure to take them all out a couple times a year to check and wipe them down, but have never had an issue. I don't think there is enough silicone on them to affect the stock finish, at least not so far (having said this, I know silicone to be pretty cantankerous stuff).
