Discussion: What Will Make Your Gun Fail (and Why)?

Lovely lady, Militia-man, but she (and the rest of us) should always wear eye protection when cleaning our firearms.šŸ¤“
Yeah, you might poke your eye out!

I use a couple of dentist's tools for the scraping. IMHO it does the best job of getting into the deepest, most difficult corners to remove the carbon. That, usually after applying Hoppe's Black solvent. That 1-2 punch removes the worst possible carbon buildup, especially in my AR's!

i have dental picks as well, all stainless steel, that were also used in my repair garage.....

yes, they do get into many areas...the tiny pocket sized straight blade screw driver, does not gouge the breech face, where carbon builds up where the brass case face locks up against it.

but yes, i have like 4 dental picks...

i also have knitting, crocheting tools as well, which surprisingly, when removing springs like trigger springs, those tools have certain bends and narrowness to them, to ease removing trigger springs....!!!!!

I retired from LE a few years ago. A local Sheriffs Department used our fireing range. One day they dropped off a case of Hilco gun wipes. You can get them in a single packet or by the tub. This stuff is the closest thing to ā€œmagicā€ when it comes to cleaning your firearm. The wipes remove any fouling, crud and all the other nasties that you can think of. At the same time it puts down a layer of lube.

Originally designed for machinery, it was quickly found to be a perfect addition to gun cleaning. All the bad stuff stays in the cleaning cloth with no residue on your hands. Just tearing off a small piece of the cloth and running it through the barrel will clean the barrel as good as you could do with a brush and patches.

They work on all my firearms, handguns, rifles and shotguns. They are safe for all finishes and will not damage the stocks on your firearms. I usually buy six or eight tubs of them and they last me a long time. You can even tear on sheet in half and use it to clean two pistols. I gave a few tubs to friends at my local gun club and they couldn’t believe how good the wipes worked on their firearms.

Where do you get ā€˜em. I’m always in the market for ā€œeasyā€
