Renaissance Wax and Parkerized Finishes?

[Singer B]

I'm just wondering, when you take these rifles to the range, does the heat from firing the rifle cause any issues with the wax substances? Thanks!

Nah, they'll liquefy again but harden up again when cool if your going nuts at the range. It's a old duck hunters trick to keep your gun from rusting. Coat the action if you're playing in saltwater. Either one is removable very easily with a solvent from the metal and lumber. It's not going to hurt anything, I did it on my guns, better for the lumber then grease or oil. I only mention it because it's a cheap option for guys to consider.
I'll add that I said only under the wood line because we're talking Milsurps and not Sporting arms.
