This VH gives me a gun that I can do whatever I want with and not worry about it. I dont even bother cleaning it, it cant get much worse than it is.
I do not mean this in a sarcastic manner by any means but it literally cracks me up that you of all people, you who can fix anything has concerns about causing damage to a gun. Then you have me, I have no ability to repair guns at all. At the same time I have no problem hunting with a high-end gun and I have no concerns about causing damage to them at all. I have done it for years and so far I've come away unscathed. I know, I should have never said that, knock on wood. On the other hand I'm absolutely paranoid about hunting in the rain with a good gun. Maybe I need to adjust my thinking

Yeah I thought of that but I still find humor in it.
