I spend a lot of time cleaning guns. Some require more effort than others.

...Ruskies didnt spend much time cleaning...
WOW, it may not even function now! 😁
...Last cleaned in Berlin, in 1945.
I bought a police trade-in Mini-14 several years ago and I wasn't sure it would ever come clean. It did, finally, after about six to eight hours of effort and taking it to itty, bitty, pieces. Tribute to Ruger it still runs great after a fair amount of abuse.
I've cleaned a few of those police trade-ins and they are tough. Years of caked on powder from those donuts Is a bear to clean.
I learned that on from an old gunsmith friend many years ago. Ernie was a wealth of knowledge who is dearly missed.
Wouldn’t that strip off all the brown water based protective coating?
He has plenty to put back on em.
I have known guys that never, ever cleaned .22's. Is that a .22LR?😏
I don't clean .22 lr bores. Does more damage than good for most folks.
