I don't use WD-40 for much anything anymore . It leaves a film after it dries, almost like varnish, though very thin. You use it enough on parts that move, after a time they don't move like they should. Besides there are a lot better sprays out there. Had a late childhood friend that became a locksmith, if he found out you used WD-40 on a lock he would want to skin you alive.

Just maybe your locksmith friend & we all missed the boat whereas the best use for WD-40 is really a protectant for fine wood finishes as TK has posted!!

I have had other black power shooters tell me that's what they use, so maybe I'm missing the boat, but I'm not using it, especially on my custom Pennsylvania Long Rife.

All I can say is, been using it for probably 20 yrs. No problems
Guns look like the day I had built or bought them. To each his own.
