sanitizing rifles

[sharpshooter]

I know there is a growing concern about all the Covid crisis going on and the mass hysteria of being safe rather than sorry, but most of the propaganda comes from paranoid parents who have been conditioned by the media to think that everything is a carrier of disease. Instead of getting into the politics and the spread of misinformation ( that would be a long rant), I'll get to the point.
Alcohol based sanitizers are for skin, bleach sanitizers are for surfaces. Bleach sanitizers are not for metal surfaces, as it will dry out the pores and leaves it susceptible to rust.
There have been ridiculous measures taken to "quarantine" mail and packages through the postal system for up to 2 weeks to make sure that things are "safe" to ship. This is nothing more than ignorance and political policy, and does nothing more than hold up the whole system.
Personally, I would spray the rifles down with WD-40, wipe them down good and let them set in the sun for a hour.

What he said above.

Covid-19 does not like full sun....2 minutes will do it.

Covid-19 has a shell that 70-90% Isopropyl alcohol dissolves and kills. Good luck finding any!...so if you used an alcohol spray i guess you could follow it up with WD-40 or equivalent.
1/3 Cup of Clorox to 1 gallon of water is good for surfaces.
