Hey all,
My buddy called and asked me a question today. He wanted to know if I had ever used those bucket cleaners where you just drop your pistol in, let it soak for a bit and then get it out and you're all set. I've never used one, don't know a thing about them. He also wanted to know about Ultrasonic cleaners. I've never seen or read about these, but I guess someone back home has one and my buddy seen it and is interested. I told him I'd get him answers to his questions....so here I am.
He also wanted to know how you clean and really dirty pistol or rifle. He's talking about a .22 pistol that's had a LOT of rounds thru it over a month or so and it has powder residue built up, caked on, really dirty. He wanted to know what the best way to clean a pistol like this would be. Would the bucket cleaner do it if you let it soak for a while? Would you just have to use Hoppe's and a brush and scrub?
Do you have any answers I can pass on to him?
Thanks all.
Larry
