    In Alaska during the 1970s we would store our weapons outside the tents during the winter. If we brought them inside the tent they would warm up and begin to "sweat". It never got warm enough in the tent to completely dry them so in the morning you would exit the tent with condensation on the weapons and they would instantly freeze and jam. The M60 was a female dog to unjam!

    That's always been our practice and still is today.
