All kidding aside>keep them dry. No doubt, they'll become wet at times, but take good care of your equipment and never store it in a case if it's gotten wet. Take the time to take care of you're equipment or it could fail on you at that critical moment, possibly even injure you in the process. Chris

The only thing I ever noticed rust on is my sight screws, I don't worry about it too much.

My best suggestion is to wipe it off before putting it away if it gets wet. keeping it dry will do wonders.
