When I clean my guns I tend to wear gloved to keep any solvent and what not off my skin. When all done I will often wear cotton gloves to give all parts a LIGHT oiling and keep moisture from me getting on parts that are not going to be cleaned for a good while from contamination. This will often include loading mags I emptied to clean. When at the range though I don't bother and often the gun stays loaded for a good while from the range till I get around to doing another cleaning. Never noticed any of the ammo seeming to have a problem from this. I would guess my hands at the range probably have some oil on them from all the shooting so that may play a part in it??

Nope...nor do I really worry 'bout such things.
I keep my firearms clean and well maintained....that is good enough for me.

That's easy for YOU to say, since they remove your fingerprints when you graduate Ranger School!!

He's talking about keeping your prints off your kit so as to not leave identifiers on them…. just in case you gotta walk in and start blastin' then peel out anonymously….

True...
And since my dad always claimed that I was the related to the missing link....
My prehensile toe prints were removed as well....

OK I missed that. No, I don't plan on getting into a shoot where I am going to run off and leave my brass laying there.

No. If I have to use it I won't be leaving the scene. Nor would I be trying to run from LE.

Radio waves….. you'll just die tired.

Just as long as you receive something.

After a thorough cleaning and wipe down I have the neighbors kid load all of my SW 4013 mags.

And every time I moved away from the pacific northwest I had the webbing surgically removed from between my toes. Return to the PNW and soon I'd have webbed toes again. Go figure...

What's the point?

LOL....the Govt has those "fired cases" with tool marks (you know....that package included with your brand new firearms). Oooops, maybe only with some states.

And anyway, CA intends to micro stamp.

Whatever.
1st rule is.......

Who does that? Have you seen the price of once fired brass lately?

That's why I use a suppressed revolver and FMJs, it automatically saves the expensive brass, but I take it a step further and get my FMJ back for reloading. Lead and copper is expensive yo.

 

[TTSX]

I mean, if you're going do something shady enough to need to wipe prints, you should probably just use a pocket revolver. You know, gun goes boom, brass stays in the gun...

Or be like Andy and carry a black powder pepperbox

Dirty secret: all of which is easily rectified with the strategic use of a jeweler's file-set and a magnifying lense at each end of the firearm…. but hey, it makes some "feel" safer.

No, I just use a revolver for all my hits.
