I last cleaned and lubed my LCP in mid July with TW25b oil. Carried it a lot in August. Got around to cleaning it today.
The brl hood was rust spotted is discolored and there was rust on the outside of the slide.  I've had it a couple years clean it after every range trip or monthly if i havent shot it for awhile.
My LCP is an early pre recall one with the brl thats in the white instead of blued. This is the only handgun i have ever had rust. Wont be using TW25b oil on the LCP anymore or going 6 weeks between cleanings.. |

my lcp is in my pocket right now .. and it has rust on the slide, on the barrel hood enough that you really can't read 380 anymore and even inside the barrel and I dont give a shit. its a concealment pistol that is meant to be carried everywhere and if the time ever comes that I NEED to use it .. its going to sit in a property room forever and a day before they return it to me and guess what .. its going to be rusted then too even if it was in pristine condition prior.
FWIW - I do shoot the gun and I do clean and oil it .. but carrying in a pocket holster and working a physically demanding job (sweat) I just don't feel the need to clean it every other day to avoid a little surface rust. |
