I've got 2 guns that do the same thing - partly heat, cause I've noticed it's worse in the summer - what I do is keep an old heavy cotton sport sock pulled up on it, and park it where it won't matter much - guess keepin it in the fridge might slow it down!!

also - hang it by the top rather than layin it on a shelf.
