cleaning
Cleaning is the process of removing unwanted substances, such as dirt, infectious agents, and other impurities, from an object or environment. Cleaning occurs in many different contexts, and uses many different methods. Several occupations are devoted to cleaning.
Greetings,
Yesterday I picked up a Pedersoli flintlock in .32 caliber and the barrel seems "difficult" to remove
for regular cleaning. It doesn't have wedges; it actually looks like the barrel was put in with finishing nails
(I'll attach photos from the manufacture).
With my old eyes...

Here we have a Bell and Carlson medalist stock for a Remington 700 long action. It also includes a Karsten kydex cheek rest/riser. I purchased this a while ago from another forum member, who did the paint job on it. I like the stock a lot, but after a broken wrist last year that left me with...

I have a few Maxpedition items that I no longer need. I love their stuff, but I have far too much of it!

I traded for this a while back, and have only used it a couple of times, so it's time to see if someone else can get some use out of it. I don't have the middle foam for it, but that is easily replaceable.
Asking $100 Sold pending funds
I am just beginning in firearms, and I can see I am collecting quite a bit of cleaning supplies. Where is the best place for storing it? Do you take it with you to the shooting range? Hunting? Do you put everything in a small duffle bag and carry it with you everytime you go anywhere with your...
hey guys,
Just curious on what kits y’all use for cleaning? For years I’ve used a hoppes kit that I’ve always seemed to loose pieces from, so it’s time to move on... looking for a good kit that does rifle, pistol, and shotgun. Cheers
For those wet tumblers out there, what cleaning solutions do you use? I use the Frankford Arsenal Brass Cleaning Solution with some mixed results. I know many of you use Lemi-Shine and Dawn dish washing soap recipe; I just found that such recipe does not give the brass that new shine that I am...

What is everyone carrying (for pistols) for a BoB or edc cleaning kit? Specifically I'm trying to figure out what the minimum to carry might be. I currently have a boresnake, solvent, oil, and patches in a waterproof, hard sided case.
I need to get a range cleaning kit for my AR10 and that...
