Lloyd90 Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 It appears that I got a bit of rust on the barrel of my shotty (it seems the only plae that has rusted is the part that rests on the sponge that sticks inside the cabinet ) So I wiped it off with a bit of kithen towel but was wondering about a few tips for proper cleaning/maintenance. Could probally do with a cleaning kit, also should be getting a 22lr soon (waiting for the FAC to come throguh, been bout 2-3 weeks so hopefully ok) and then. What do I need to get ? could do with some advice and tips on cleaning and the such, although I dont really intend on leaning the 22 that much. (Its a Browning T-bolt btw, with the straight pull bolt) Appreiate tips n help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taz24 Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 . When I clean my gun the last thing I do is wipe it down with a rag that has been drenched in oil. This gives the gun a very fine film of oil over it and I think that, that helps keep things like your problem at bay. Cheers taz . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trussman Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Most people, on the whole, don't clean .22s. I don't own one, but after firing quite a few I don't think there is much point in cleaning the barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libs Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 People at my target club clean there .22's about once a year, the smokeless propellant in its tiny quantities seems to leave very little fouling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
