Gun Cleaning How To: 4 Tools and 4 Simple Steps
In this Gun Cleaning How To article I am going to walk you through what I consider to be the quickest and easiest way to clean a gun. Specifically I will focus on semi-automatic pistols. You will need only 4 items and perform 4 easy steps.
If you own a Canik METE MC9, I also have a dedicated Canik METE MC9 cleaning guide with video that walks through the process in four easy steps.
I will also discuss some of the different chemicals, oils and solvents that are commonly used to clean firearms and when and how to use them.
Note: The remainder of this article continues with the original beginner gun-cleaning tutorial.
My cousin is really into guns and wants to buy and collect them as soon as he gets his license in a few months. That’s why I think he’d be interested in learning how to clean a gun effectively and without a lot of tools. Thanks for the insight on gun cleaning and the importance of finding a good cleaner, lubricant, and protectant.
Eli, thanks so much for leaving the comment! Tell your cousin to check us out!
