Nothing like the boom, smoke and smell of real blackpowder. I agree... Nothing can corrode a perfectly good gun like real blackpowder :D

LOL! That's true if you do not clean it. After shooting it I use good ole soap and water, dry it, and put a small amount of a water displacing gun oil. Same gun for a number of years with no rust. No need for fancy solvents :D
