I am a grandfather of 12. My kids raced motorcycles. They made it to the top of their sport. They raced against the best teams on earth. The factory teams were regularly beaten by my kids. The bikes were bought by me and the engine and suspension were built in my garage. I also invented things that all of us have in our heating and air conditioning systems. I am now beginning to shoot as my old guy hobby. Your a much appreciated resource for me. Thank you Brother. Old man in the white mountains of New Hampshire. Respectfully

@@paulshayter1113 He _claims_ a factory trained armorer but videos like this are evidence to the contrary. There’s a reason not one firearm manual or factory armorer manual recommends mineral oil for firearm lubrication and that’s because it’s absolutely terrible for use on machines like firearms and it becomes a goopy mess when it gets mixed firing residue.

After years of watching your channel with all it's sound advice and warm moments when you shared your daily activities and heart breaking sad times, I started to worry when I didn't see another video. I am a senior citizen as you and I have had my experiences with serious medical problems. So, I could not help but be concerned as the the months slipped by. You are like the old friends I have had from whom I received blessings of common sense as we grew old together. Most are gone now.

I was a munitions/weapons specialist in the Airforce. My father was a .50 gunner in WWII. He also spent most of his life working and hunting with firearms. The one thing he always said, emphatically and was reiterated to me in the military was that a weapon was "stored oiled and ran dry" (clean and wiped thoroughly with oil, inside and out). If it was stored in an oil cloth as you have there, just wipe down the parts w/wrap before using/after storing and, as you say, "a drop of oil on the slide/action and you're good to go." This has proven true and effective my whole life. Never any premature wear on friction parts and any few malfunctions limited to ammo issues. 😊

Love your content, clarity amongst the noise. Needle bottles for isopropyl alcohol, clp & mineral oil are handy. Helps dispense the smallest amount possible. I like to clean everything with the alcohol on patches till clear then the chamber & bore ONLY with clp until visibly clean (use a light & loupe if necessary to inspect rifling), run clean patches until they come out clear, then finish with oil on a patch, work it into the patch evenly, then run down the bore, finish with the oil rag over everything else. Semi auto, wheel guns, rifles & shotguns. Never have rust. New guns or for heavy shooting I will have a needle bottle with clp to clean the feed ramp while hot. I think this helps condition the metal. Also, polishing the feed ramp & chamber opening with wadding every cleaning (wipe off area as wadding will leave compound behind) will help with feed issues.

Concerning 'dropping the slide'. I have a 70 Series Gold Cup.

It said dropping from the Slide Lock was actually easier on the pistol than firing it. Then it asked me if I took pills to become dumb enough to ask that question or if I came by it naturally !

@ Because mineral oil is *not* a proper firearm lubricant. Using it as one and then firing the gun (and firing residue mixes with the mineral oil) the pistol will become a gummed up and non functional mess. This will not only lead to an immediate loss of confidence in the firearm’s reliability, it will also place unnecessary stress on the firearm as it has to now attempt to function through what is effectively an *adhesive* There’s a reason not one single firearm manual manual or armorer manual recommends using mineral oil, and that is exactly why. Do what you want though, you won’t be ruining _my_ guns by following an insane rambling KZbin video 😂

Only semiautomatics I own are my Ruger Mark 1 & 2 .22 pistols. Just wipe them with my tattered old Silicone gun cloth I've had since about 1980. Some time around '82 or '83, I remember accidentally dropping it in a pan of Hoppe's #9. I wrung...wringed...wrang... whatever...it out and hung it up to dry. That wonderful smell lingered in my garage for weeks, as I recall! Still using it!! Never have cleaned the bore. Still more accurate than a rifle. For my revolvers, a one minute dunk and swish in #2 Diesel fuel, which is ESSENTIALLY 5 or 6 parts kerosene and 1 part mineral oil. Let it air dry on a stack of newspapers, preferably a newspaper with an extremely anti-gun editorial policy. The diesel evaporates, leaving a thin film of oil. Wipe off the exterior with the 44 year old rag. Lead in the barrel? ONE swipe with the old Lewis Lead Remover. If it works, don't fix it!!🥸 Thank you Mr. GunBlue for sharing your knowledge and years of experience with us. MAGA

Oddly, the closest thing to old #9 that is readily available now is STP Gas Treatment, which is jet fuel and a pinch of Benzene, which is the same as modern jet fuel. Not even close to volatility of gasoline or acetone.

I’m confused regarding the instructions given by several of the custom 1911 makers. Case in point: When taking possession of my Les Baer Custom Carry 1911 there was an information sheet included that instructed the new owner not to clean the excess CLP lubricant from the pistol until the break in period (500 rounds). This pistol was literally SWIMMING in CLP inside of a sealed plastic bag. Their instructions were to simply wipe down the exterior of the pistol with a gun cloth or microfiber cloth to remove the excess oil before shooting. I’m guessing that the only reason for these instructions is due to the tight barrel to slide and slide to frame fitment. What are your thoughts on this particular method of break in? Thank you

A single drop of oil goes a long way on a flat metal surface, bigger than any surface area of a handgun...the exterior of a long gun probably does need a second drop...i've never seen sights oiled, that seems a smidgen odd, but i suppose there is a reason...one place i wipe with an oily patch is on the bottom of the slide, behind the head of the bolt, as there appears to be wear there...any shiny spot indicating wear ought to get that wipe, and then wiped 'dry', although that ultra, ultra thin layer of oil will remain...kinda like oiling the bore, then running dry patches, even a half dozen dry patches will leave the very thin protective coating intact...but yeah, people, put a single drop on a flat metal surface and watch how far it will go, and how even after wiping with a dry cloth several times the sheen is still there...there's your sign...

Long time fan and avid reviewer of your body of works. Another great refresher on lubrication and Ill be sure to pass this on to my younger shooters so its not only "me" opining in such a fashion. For your consideration I have a question for you if you dont mind. Im having some difficulty in understanding when bullet mass and larger frontal areas can outperform smaller cartridges with better sectional density and velocities. I recently picked up a Model 94 Deluxe in 38-55 that is shooting 1300 fps vs my 170 grain 30-30 at 2200 fps. In short at what ranges can you extrapolate the terminal ballistics or strengths and weaknesses at various yardages between the two. Would love to hear thoughts on this matter. Glad to see your doing well. God Bless....

Time to get the hunting rifles ready for the Big Game season. For many of us Northeast hunters who use a Remington Semiautomatic. Do you plan on doing a video on how to properly clean a Remington model 742. The DuPont Bowling Pin Finish on my 1968 BDL Custom Deluxe is holding up beautifully. I noticed the 629 has the Hillary Hole. The revolvers made prior to that are more desirable. You can’t compare the blued finish to the new S&W revolvers that are lacking that quality.

Really enjoyed this video as I have so many of yours in the past. As we all know, so many folks believe that a 1911 runs "best when wet" or heavily lubricated. I do have a question..... I have a few original 1911's from WWII (Remington Rand, Colt, etc.) and when I clean them, I usually put a thin bead of gun grease along the guides that the slide moves along. I noticed you placed only a drop or two of oil on your stainless. So, here's the question: Do you agree with a bit more lube on the old originals and do you ever use gun grease, as opposed to oil? Thanks.

Mineral oil is such a great lubricant,,,,, it's used in new aircraft engines as "break-in" oil!

If you run an oiled patch down the bore, you should followup with a dry patch. You don't want oil pooling in the chamber or against the bolt face.

I live in a very humid area of SC, I use synthetic engine oil for my gun oil. I have to really slop the oil to them to prevent rust, way too much oil lol.

Thanks for the information, sir. Question: Is the 100% cotton flannel used lightweight, medium, or heavyweight type? Also, I watched your two videos on this, and one you said to use 2-3 teaspoons of mineral oil usp on a 20" X 20" cut piece of this fabric and one said 2-3 tablespoons...can you please advise on the proper amount?

So no oil in the cylinder block on the frame or in the cylinder advance ratchet?

I have wondered but wasn't sure about mineral oil. What i use is silicone spray on a cloth.
