Sorry was out of town for a day to go to an Aunt's 100th birthday, so didn't get a chance to get on yesterday. I can see that it is the bayonet now. I didn't see the other rifle wit the bayonet and it never occured to me. Good eyes guys.

What is that extra large long gun.

Welcome to NE TN and TGO. I haven't been over for a while but this is where I go when I want longer distances than my backyard range. If you can manage to go during the week it is usually not crowded. I have heard on weekends it can be hard to get a lane. Never had any problems everyone I have ran into have acted in a safe manner and had no problem when you called for a ceasefire to go down range. It cost $2/car a $1 if you have a Senior National Park card. It is off TN 107 on Scioto Road.

Yep I'm lazy. I try to give a good tear down cleaning once a year to all the guns that get shot regularly, the rest of the time it is bore snakes, Q-Tips and swabs to get the worst parts cleaned up. Because I'm lazy I don't get to the full tear down on all my guns every year.

I don't overly soak the barrel and have no problems so I guess I clean often enough not to be a problem. I use a little G96 on the first part of the snake and on the first set of wire bristles. So far never got one stuck. On guns with a mag well I run it up through there and then into the barrel to a little extra cleaning on the way around the corner into the barrel.

I am a fan of bore snakes, you do have to do some secondary cleaning with swaps or Q-tips, if you don't do a full tear down. Bore snakes are my primary for barrels, almost never use rods/brushes/patches. I have several that are overdue for a cleaning but they still do the job. I plan to put some Dawn dish washing liquid in a jar, drop in the snake and shake for awhile then rinse the same way, probably changing the rinse water a couple of times. Mine heavy use snakes may need to passes through the Dawn cycle to get clean.

Got mine in about 10 days 4 1/2 years ago, maybe there is a surge in applications.

Yea there were some nice alternatives

I figured Jane would get some comments. Just so we don't have to stir the pot again later here are two more pictures of Jane. Even if her politics suck she was nice to look at in her earlier years.

Happy New Year

I have used the Aguila in a single shot rifle without any problems. It is so silent that you hear the hammer drop then hear the bullet hit the target, no real bang. In a revolver it is a little louder.

If it only it had a small house on the property, would drain my reserves buying the property and would have to live in my RV.
