I don't know what all the fuss is over...... I prefer to look at them dirty when I go to buy. It makes me a little suspicious if the gun is to clean the same way I get suspicious in looking at a used car or truck and it has had a fresh oil change.
However, I'm not to anal about a gun being dirty or clean when I am looking to buy. It's going to get a thorough cleaning no matter what condition it is in if it goes home with me.

Gary, Like you I don't mind cleaning the gun either since it is the best way to learn about your weapon. I would think, however, one would want to get the best possible price out of their trade/sale. It's like trying to sell a used car and you say " I'm selling the car, why clean the 3 years worth of trash out of the backseat."

Judging from the number of people who don't wash before attending gun shows, I'm not surprised that they don't clean their guns either.

I tried that tack when I cooked at a truck stop. Apparently no one likes flies in their food even if you don't charge for the extra protein.Hi Jim, I always try to get a deal on a dirty gun but the answer is usually "no extra charge for the dirt" ! Gary
The first thing I do with any new purchase is field strip it, just to familiarize myself with it. That's how I found this mess.
