My heart aches for you
Preventing rust in a safe.
- Thread starter Gros21

Then a paintball gun or air rifle falls under the same class as 5 round lever or over under shot gun and bolt 22lr
10 round limits on a pump/bolt action Center fire.
No semi auto long guns (including 22lr) unless you need it to earn an income and then the vast majority of your income must come from it. Eg you can't have a hobby farm and try to get a 10/22.
Let's say I do have a large property and im a full time farmer. I can have 1 semi auto Center fire (I'm I'm lucky) do I go a ar15 for culling small Varmin or a larger one for pigs ect ect. Then let's say I want to take it to the range to sight it in. Noooope as it's registured for primary production only.
Same state have an appearance laws. If it's looks miltarty it's cat d (darn impossible to get) 1911's, Mauser, 303 are fine apparently.
Stock rem 700 ok
Rem 700 factory tac chassis not ok.
Paint the tac chassis bright pink then it's ok.
Folding/adjustable stocks are a no go in some states. Ruger precession ect ect. I personally got a Ruger precession rimfire to teach my kids how to shoot. That's banned in some states (stock must be pinned)
Pay $30us every time I want a new gun and get approval for it. I have semi auto handguns, 308 bolt actions ect ect but hang on let's get permission to get a break open gamo air rifle.
Your laws may not be perfect but I 100% admit I have limited knowledge on it and can't jusge but I hope you don't go our way.
I'm all for harsher penalties for doing the wrong ****. But why treat law abiding people's like crims.
I got a mouth full from one cop after he asked me did I have anything in the car. I said yea half a dozen or so semi auto guns behind the seat. He walks of checks license then came back in a big huf cause I didn't make it clear enough I was serious about the guns.

My safe is in a walk in closet. Humidity is high in my area. I run a dehumidifier and I also use cat litter made with silica gel to absorb moisture inside the closed safe. I have a curtain closing off the closet which makes a big difference in air flow into or out of the room. I empty the humidifier about every three days or more depending whether I am running my home central air or not. I don't have any rust problems with handguns or rifles. Many of my guns have been in this safe for over 10 years now.

It's available on Amazon.
I have several of my 'once in a while' shooters in a small Sentry Safe in my cellar. I put a very thin coat of oil on them and stick each in an old sock that I have worn holes into. The cellar is about 1600 sq ft. I run two big de-humidifiers 24/7. The de-humidifiers are emptied 2 times daily. My long guns are stored in their carry cases. The humidity stays around 50%. So far so good.
