The newer Browning definitely are made with a different barrel material and/or they are lined with chrome or a rust prohibitive coating. As far as back boring and selling the gun, I have never sold a gun in my life and it is kind of a principal matter for me. I'll keep this thing and let friends and family use it when they need a gun, knowing that I have to clean it immediately.
As far as the downpour is concerned, it wasn't raining in the least bit. Just the sweat from a hot gun cooling off must have been enough to cause the rusting.
