Blowing down barrels is getting a bit silly. Jeff is going to find out his "test" results are different when he does them with a case (empty please) in the chamber.
Really I think his arguement about a frozen plug in the barrel is pretty far fetched anyway. If it's raining it's not cold enough to freeze something inside the barrel. The only way it could possibly happen is if it rained hard and then turned colder but in that case your trigger and other internal parts of your gun are likely going to freeze before anything inside the barrel that somehow leaked past the case.
In any event I still think that muzzle taping is more important to prevent mud and/or other debris from entering the barrel than water. I've never had a problem with rain in an untaped barrel, but as mentioned before have seen issues with mud.....................................DJ
Agree mostly, and well said.
Even with a round in the chamber I bet I could get water dripping from the muzzle in under 2 minutes though. Try it!
