Any negative effects of storing a paratrooper carbine in the jump bag in the safe?

Firearms are never stored 'in' anything like a holster, foam-lined case or carry bag. This has been known since they began to be used by armies hundreds of years ago. Under good conditions such as indoors with controlled humidity you probably can get away with it but its like speeding on ice. Sooner or later there's going to be trouble.

I recall when I first joined someone cautioned me not to store my rifle in the foam-lined case the previous owners gave me to take it home in. I also read something somewhere about constant long term contact with the metal by anything other than oil would/could eventually attract enough moisture to create a speck of rust and a pit, or worse. Jim's comment above seems to contradict any problems with the canvas case in a safe but he wipes down with oil periodically. Without that personal attention Inland44 is right on the point methinks.
