Only when their little feetsies get cold!
only use for transportation.. NEVER store in them...That's right, I heard those stoopid things can retain moisture and rust the gun.
Silicone-treated, polyester/acrylic gun socks give valuable firearms protection against rust, dirt and scratches. The fabric won't hold moisture, making these gun socks ideal for year-round storage.
Finally. They've arrived.
From previous threads, I've also read claims and unsupported thoughts that they do the opposite that they are designed for, but all evidence to the contrary. I'm sure someone in a humid climate might chime in and claim that their gun rusted when it was stored in one of these. We'll see, but you'd never be able to prove that the gun rusted because of the sock it was stored in.
The info from the horse's mouth...

...and that has been my experience for many years now. If my guns develop so much as a spec of rust while in their socks, I'll be the first to post about it.

Do you wear socks?
Do your feet sweat?
!!!
End of thread...
Don't use them, you are begging for trouble! No one wants sweaty, stinky gunz!
But guns don't sweat so it doesnt really matter.
Or to my rifles when I take them from a nice 73 degree AC house out to 95 degree heat with 70% humidity lolTell that to my Yugo Mauser when it takes a nice sun bath.
Man, I've heard of people keeping a gun in the sock drawer, but never actually inside of their socks!!
