| How do you skirt a teardown? Yeah, I know it's the best way but most don't do it, so how do you?? All of the tricks here, along with all of the "secrect solvents". Tell us your methods. Air compressor and all. Bill T. |
Me too ... well ... sort of. I have a Bushmaster that I just shoot and have fun with. Unfortunately, I don't get to do that very often. I don't care a whole lot about it as far as my usual anal-ness. I spray some MP7 down the barrel and spray the front brush portion of a bore snake ... then I pull it through. That's it. I put a couple drops of oil on the BCG when I get to the range to shoot the next time. After 1-2 thousand rounds, I clean the lugs and BCG. On the other hand, my CMMG is my patrol and it gets cleaned completely every time it gets fired ... or at least before it gets put in my car next to me. It's what I would expect a cop to deploy to save my behind if I was pinned down in front of a bank or something and I'm sure that's what the people in my city expect from my equipment. Same goes for my Glock 31 and my Benelli.

If I'm not sure when I'm going to go to the range again(like October-Janurary I spend my time bow hunting) I thoroughly clean it even if I only shoot 5 rounds through it.(Bore blast, Mobil 1 30w, with slightly more oil than usual. This time of year when I shoot more I put about 1000 rounds through it before I ever touch it. It takes several range sessions for me to get to 1000 rounds so it may take a bit. It takes longer to clean it then but I enjoy torturing it a bit. Like someone else said, if it can't handle it, I don't want it. I already have a couple of primadonna firearms, my AR should be a workhorse. I just check the chamber and the bore carefully every day to make sure there aren't obstructions, maybe run a bore snake through it once after the session. |
