I was just given a Marlin model 60 .22 cal long rifle. It looks to be in good condition, no rust or signs of abuse, but it also looks like it hasn't been cleaned since it was last fired over a year ago. I've heard that powder residue can corrode firearms and make them unsafe to fire. Is this true? And if so is there any good way to know if its beyond repair or does it just need a good cleaning before fireing again. I would appreciate any advice on this as well as any advice on storing firearms for long periods of time. Thanks.
