    M4 and Scope + Rain

    I'm looking for some advice. I was planning on shooting today but the weather has decided to take a turn for the worse and has brought me light rain. My question is if I shoot will this hurt my rifle or scope? The rifle is a Sig Sauer M4 and the scope is a Nikon Pro Staff.

    You are good to go. Just wipe everything down afterwards, and re-lube the rifle before storing.

    You weren't included in the "you people" and I removed the lame part anyway as it wasn't constructive.

    "You people" references the recent trolls blowing up the board.

    We cool. I just wish the mobile app would show the post counts of users like the full site does. You are an expert troll hunter, I still need cheat mode to see post counts.

    I very much doubt it. The rifle is based off of a battlefield proven weapon and as long as you wipe the steel parts down with oil after drying you should be fine.

    The scope,if property sealed will withstand the rain just fine. Plenty of people have hunted in the rain for years with scopes and been fine.

    I can't tell you how many times I have shot NRA National Match Service Rifle match in the rain! The weapon functioned just fine, sometimes maybe the shooter not so much!
