MIts worked so far. No problems with rust. I was nervous about it at first, and tried it with an old WASR. After firing several hundred rounds of yugo, I fired off a mag of Wolf. I put it in the safe and checked on it after a day, a week and a month. No signs of rust. Still a good idea to clean though. WHat I want to know is, how did China and Russia do it? Surely those millions of conscripts didnt carry around gallon jugs of water to rinse their rifles down with? What about the Marines in WW2? They fired corrosive in a tropical environment. I wish my Grandpa were still around to ask. Anyone know how they cleaned their M1s?
Except for my Mosin,I'd agree with this
So how about some Simple Green down the shoot?
Interesting.. I spent a little under 3 years in Afghanistan 25 years ahead of you, guys, and I never had to think about it. We cleaned our weapons whenever we had a chance: twice a day or once a month. All we had was called 'gun oil' in a tiny oiler.
But if you want to overthink it a bit more, any high TBN motor oil will do. TBN= total base number, takes care of KCl or whatever you believe it is. Will be cheaper than that Chanel number 9 you are using..
