I'm a new stainless mini-14 owner who has fired rimfire rifles, shotguns, and handguns (also own a sp101) but never an automatic long gun. I expect I fall squarely in the 'noob' category. Looking forward to doing some learning and getting established in the community here.
I'm gonna have a lot of questions, and no I haven't tried searching yet, but for instance: How many patches should it take, to get a clean patch from the barrel of a new mini? Like more than twenty? Because the patches are still coming out dirty. And: should I disassemble the weapon and clean all of the parts before firing, or the barrel only, or nothing at all?
