Firearm BS thread

had one, sold it, didnt like the thumb safety, but never had a misfire with it.

 

Yeah thats the only downside i have heard from it really but the shields have a similar safety now dont they? Also couldnt u just leave it off?

 

the shields have both. I guess you could leave it off, but its another step that could go wrong under a stressful situation. also the reset was a full reset if i remember correctly. and there wasn't much of a aftermarket support for it.

 

Well, After 2 months this finally came in.......FN FNS 9mm compact

 

What do yall think of this price? Seems decent to me just going off a quick ebay and gunbroker search of what it would take to buy the rifle and scope new

Tips/ tricks/ links to products that y'all like for cleaning this Glock I just got. I have a basic kit. Wondering if y'all have preferences for cleaners or oils.

 

Toss it in the dishwasher done!

 

did that last night. should i just spray some WD-40 on it and call it good?

 

Usually what I do is pull the slide off spray the internals with carb cleaner toss it in the DW let it run 30 minutes go out in the garage blow it out with the compressor. Oil internals in select spots and use Amsoil 20/50...But again I only clean my Glocks about every 3000 rounds if that...

 

Noooooo! Never use WD-40 on any firearm, airregardless of what any person might want to tell you. It's not a lubricant, it is an emulsifier

 

Rem-oil is always a safe call. Here is a photo of some good examples. No this is not the Bible of what you should always use, but good starter examples. The first three are cleaners and the rest are various forms of lubrication

 

I have never seen that rifle before ! Hmmmm

 

I was just kidding. I've got Rem Oil and Hoppe's 9 cleaner.

What about jags and brushes? Any special there?

 

I just wanted to make sure that I squash that notion for anybody reading it, or people just starting out. As far as the jags and brushes, I don't really see one brand being better over another but I myself prefer using nylon brushes over brass brushes.

 

Tell him to post freaking pictures. Who sells something these days with out posting pictures?

**I meant the guy with the add not you

 

Has anybody used the Colt branded gun lube/grease? It's in a small aerosol can.

Found like 4 cans the other day, never used it, not sure they still work but figured I'd ask and see in case I should just toss them in the trash.
