Sure do. I spent a very Pleasant hour or so yesterday enjoying a beverage of my choice as I cleaned and waxed my M-19 and M-586.


I try and wax them yearly, unless they need more attention.

I have been wiping my revolvers down with a silicon cloth after cleaning and lubricating the revolvers. Should I put wax on top of the silicon?

I don't get it. You can put this Renaissance wax on all parts of your gun exterior, from metal to wood, and still fire it? If it is the rust prevention cure-all, how come it's not talked about more? Shouldn't this be the primary means of defense over an oil finish or silicone rag?

Default more about waxing

I'd like to know more about waxing your guns.

Do you apply the wax inside the barrel and cylinders or just on the exterior of the gun?

I have been using a silicon cloth to rub down my revolvers after applying the gun oil. If you apply wax, would you still apply gun oil and silicon? If so, in what order?

Thanks. I want to take good care of my guns so that they last.
