| Firearm Cleaning & Maintenance Guns are mechanical tools that require routine cleaning and maintenance to remain dependable. This is especially true for defensive weapons that must work as expected when you need them the most. This forum will cover these important areas and encourage you to ask questions before taking on an unfamiliar task. |

My air compressor sure makes the gun cleaning chore a lot easier!

Guns get cleaned every time after use, sometimes more than once. Love cleaning them.

Dad taught me about guns, how to handle them and how to clean them. If you know him, you know that means one shot fired, gun gets cleaned, period.
I actually enjoy cleaning mine. Heck I enjoy cleaning other people's too. Just last week he asked if I would clean his old shotgun that had developed a little surface rust, he's in the process of moving and his cleaning supplies are at the new house. Sure, no problem, Dad has done a lot for me over the years. I stripped it down, cleaned it, oiled it, and it still looked nasty. I took it back to him yesterday, in a new case(with an unbroken zipper) completely re-blued, the stock sanded(to remove the scratches and gouges), stained and refinished. He wondered what took me so long to clean it, but he is happy with the way it looks. ![]()

Me too! Spray it with CLP, let it sit, scrub any built up gunk (not that there should be any if you're diligent), and then blow them clean in the back yard. This works great and it takes me maybe half an hour during Sunday afternoon football games.
