Having cleaned several of his Dad's guns, I will verify. I clean them all the same; I use Sweet's 7.62 Solvent first thing down the bore-never had a problem with corrosion. BP guns, of couse get Hot soapy water, or T/C #13 Solvent.Rongo wrote:Growing up my old man never cleaned his guns until they stopped functioning... And then it was lets say half-ass at best. I admit there are times I don't get to cleaning every single gun right after shooting, but it ain't very often. I especially clean every gun that shoots corrosive, or possibly corrosive. No exception.

Murphy was an optimist.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an
invasion, butcher a hog, design a building, conn a ship, write a
sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the
dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve an
equation, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a
computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.
