Exclamation REMINDER! Check & lube your carry gun.

Edit:

It's that time of year again. Thought I'd bump this up as a reminder.


It's been a while since I posted this thread, but it's still a good lesson for me to remember.

A friendly reminder....
Check and lube your daily carry gun in the hot weather.


I've been carrying my Shield in a leather OWB pancake holster, working & sweating, etc.
Today I decided to do a little dry-firing, so I tried to drop the mag & unload it.
I found the magazine release was almost seized, and I had to push on it pretty hard to get the magazine to release.
When I looked closer at it, I found the release was rusted from all of the sweat & moisture building up.









I took it apart, and after a little wire brushing and a drop of oil, it's all fixed and working smooth again.


I just wanted to pass on a friendly reminder to all to check your EDC for rust and moisture during the hot weather.
