Well, for one thing mine is normally very well concealed under a shirt or jacket, so I don't normally get all that wet. I usually carry a Glock, so it's something I've never really worried about, although sometimes I carry an SP101 or a nickel Chief Special. I guess if they got wet, I'd just have to clean them later.

Having said that, since I'm retired Army, I've carried weapons of all sorts in rain, mud, dust, dirt, rice paddies, snow etc. I would never even consider leaving my weapon (usually an old 1911) in my tent for fear of it getting wet (also, we were never given the choice of leaving it behind). Perhaps I could have told the Viet Cong that it was getting wet, so please don't shoot 'cause I left my pistol at the camp.

Sorry for being cynical, but it's a question that I've never even thought about before. That's probably why the armorer made us clean the damn things every day!
