Gent's,
Probably a dumb question, but, I use to wrench and rebuid engines in my late teens and early twenties. I started thinking, can a barrel warp (like a camshaft or, crankshaft) if you store the a rifle laying down for an extended period of time?
I've always had my rifles stored standing up on the butt end so, I'm not concerned. But, I stated to wonder if the metallurgy of a barrel could influence warping over time?
