Coating the out side of a blued rifle does nothing to protect the most important part. The inside of the bore. There are some manufactures who sell so called all weather rifles. They are chrome molly steel with a coating on the out side. The bore is left completely unprotected. They of course never mention that. Buyer beware.

A very well known gunsmith in Seattle told me of a hunt in Alaska whereby it rained hard everyday he was there. At night he dried off the rifle, sprayed the bore with wd40 and dried it out as well, then added a thin coat of oil to all. Each night, no problems at all
