Most "gun bags" barely slow moisture down. Ours stops it cold.

Here's the difference: a single sheet of plastic lets water v***r walk right through to your steel. API VCI gun bags use a multi-layer barrier with a moisture transmission rate roughly 20x lower than standard transparent barrier film.

Less moisture = slower rust = protection that holds up in basements, garages, vehicles, and humid climates alike.

And because our barrier layers lock the VCI chemistry INSIDE the bag, the protective molecules go to work on your firearm instead of leaking out and getting wasted. That's how you get 5–10 years of rust protection from one bag.

No oils. No grease. Made in the USA. 🇺🇸

How do API VCI Gun Bags meet and exceed MIL-STD-2073-1 better than basic VCI bags?
It starts with a stronger preservation system. API VCI Gun Bags use a true two-layer design:
Outer layer: a flexible barrier material that helps block oxygen and water v***r
Inner layer: Cortec VpCI-126 MIL film for proven multimetal corrosion protection

That combination helps API VCI Gun Bags deliver 5-10 years of rust prevention with proper use, while many basic single-layer VCI bags typically offer only 3-5 years depending on the brand.

Why that matters:
Better long-term storage
Better moisture protection
Better readiness for fi****ms, magazines, spare parts, and ammunition storage

API also uses Cortec VpCI-126 MIL film on the inside layer, a transparent blue film qualified to MIL-PRF-22019D Type 1 and widely recognized for serious long-term corrosion protection.

If you need a better solution for military-style preservation, long-term storage, or protecting valuable fi****ms and gear, API VCI Gun Bags are built to do more than a basic VCI bag.

Why do API VCI Gun Bags last longer than basic single-layer VCI bags?

Because API uses a true two-layer system.

The outer 4 mil layer is a flexible barrier material that helps block oxygen and water v***r while locking in the protective VCI environment.

The inner 4 mil layer is Cortec VpCI-126 MIL film, a military-qualified VCI material designed to protect both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

That combination helps API VCI Gun Bags deliver 5-10 years of rust prevention with proper use, while many single-layer VCI bags typically offer only 3-5 years depending on the brand.

This makes API bags a smarter choice for:
• Fi****ms
• Magazines
• Spare parts
• Ammunition storage

If you want long-term rust prevention without messy oils or heavy grease, API VCI Gun Bags are built to give you a better storage solution.

When you store a pistol, rust often starts with fingerprints, humidity, and poor barrier protection. The Arms Preservation Inc. VCI Pistol Storage Bag helps protect handguns during both short-term and long-term storage.

For even better results, prep the pistol with the Arms Preservation Inc. Silicone Gun Cleaning Cloth before storage. That simple step helps remove fingerprints and leaves a light protective film on the metal surface.

Arms Preservation Inc. was built on one core principle: make the most durable, reusable, longest-lasting VCI gun storage bags possible, using U.S.-sourced materials and American labor.

This brand is the result of real preservation packaging experience. After 15+ years in MIL-SPEC packaging and years building the ZCORR and BluGuard VCI brands, we launched Arms Preservation as an independent brand focused on firearm readiness and long-term rust prevention.

We combine proven VCI protection with a true barrier design to help keep humidity out and protection around your firearm. We also chose Cortec VpCI®-126 Blue film based on extensive experience with it and its QPL listing for MIL-PRF-22019D.
