Aluminum Frame

Do I need an aluminum frame for the storage of oil?

I have a gun with an aluminum frame. If I were to store them away for long time, I need bother to clean oil on the surfaces of aluminum, in addition to steel surfaces? If it helps, there is a kind of dark gray finishing aluminum.

Yes! ......... Oil .... It is aluminum does not rust in the common sense not as steel ...... But aluminum is oxidized, as all metals .... Being in a humid place for the long term, playing a different type of metal or even just time aluminum will not rust ..... Place a layer light oil on it .... Do a science experiment, if you do not believe me .... Cut open a beer can .... Put out, but also for the time .... leave it there for several months - maybe a year - then look at it .... You note that has faded, and may even have an aluminum oxide powder in it are exposed Air Guns ..... are expensive - Just keep it oiled .....
