Hello,

I would like to gauge everyone's opinion on the best type of material/case that can contain firearms with antique bluing, without blemishing. Here are some examples of materials: Leather, nylon, gun case foam, etc. I am aware that keeping a firearm oiled is the best way to prevent bluing loss. There are some materials I have seen that will still cause corrosion regardless of oiling; such as felt.

In summary, I have a Colt 1908 Vest Pocket Pistol that has absolute perfect bluing. I want to store it in a small handgun case in which I can keep the Colt oiled and preserved.

Any suggestions?
