[@peterbiagi703]

I can't thank you enough for such an excellent step-by-step demonstration of disassembling and cleaning a Savage Model 64. I hope others that watch this video will take the time to give you a thumbs up. You certainly deserve it.

Ordered my 64F, and now I know how to take care of it. Thank you🤝

[@davesgunchannel]

Thanks for watching and leaving a comment. I really appreciate it! Dave

[@Mondo_Monchi]

Fantastic video. Thank you for the clear instruction. I've had my 64 for about 8 years now. Today is the day she finally gets the deep clean she deserves

[@davesgunchannel]

I am sure she is going to be very happy!! Thanks so much for the comment!

[@joshuaraines896]

Is any one else amazed by the dispenser? That might be the coolest thing I’ve ever seen…

[@davesgunchannel]

lol! They are pretty awesome! Thanks for watching the video!

​@@davesgunchannel that dispenser Is used in the field of the electronics to contain chemical products for the electronic boards cleaning 😊 i work on that field and we have a lot of them 😂

[@LloydBarrywebdesign]

I was thinking the same thing

[@brandonborden8814]

First video I found that actually went in depth with cleaning and instructions, thank you!

[@davesgunchannel]

Glad it was helpful! I very much appreciate the comment!

[@milesmanges]

Thank you, this was my first .22lr, 24 years ago, shes been a champion and ive been wanting to give her a deep cleaning

[@davesgunchannel]

Awesome!! Great rifle! My first .22 as well! Dave

[@thelaughinghyenas8465]

I really like how you listed the required tools in a nice, clear image right up front. That way I can have all the tools ready and don't have to keep going back and forth.

I have a Cooey 64b from Cobourg. Best clean up video so far.

[@davesgunchannel]

Wow, thanks! I really appreciate that comment! Dave

[@tominmo8865]

Nicely done! Just bought a 64F today and found your video.

[@davesgunchannel]

Awesome! Thank you! I hope you enjoy your new rifle! Dave

[@fp7149]

64F will be soon my fist rifle and this video is absolutely the best to instruct how to clean it. Compliments 👍

[@davesgunchannel]

Thank you so much I really appreciate that! Dave

@@davesgunchannel Dave, is WD40 ok to clean this Rifle? Or dont you suggest It?

[@davesgunchannel]

I have heard of people using WD-40 to clean their guns. I have not tried it but I think it would probably work ok for the cleaning, but not for lubrication. I would also be very careful around any gun sights. Dave

[@Stoich827]

Just had my Savage.22 LR out today. Put 200 rounds through it without a hiccup! Thanks for the video!

[@davesgunchannel]

Awesome! Nice guns for sure! I appreciate the comment! Dave

Had this out shooting today, after about 250 rounds it started to misfire. Took it apart, cleaned it and shot some empty brass. The firing pin mark son the casings are MUCH better after the cleaning and oiling. I think the firing pin wasn't moving very well in the bolt, everything was basically dry. Thanks for the video!

[@davesgunchannel]

Wow, that’s awesome! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave that comment!

[@bigboytasty]

I currently have that issue with my new 64. Hoping to take it apart and oil it up

[@nathankleber9150]

Great video, much appreciated! Waiting for my waiting period to pass before I can pick up my 64 precision from the gun shop. Gotta love living in the People's Republic of Washington! 😅

[@davesgunchannel]

Awesome! Enjoy your new rifle! (Once you get it)

[@nathankleber9150]

@@davesgunchannel thanks brother. Only took 3 days for the background check to clear, but with the mandatory 10 business day waiting period, and the 4th of July falling in that time frame, it's actually taking 16 days total. Only 10 more days to go... 😭

[@mick5740]

Detailed clean ! I thought h had read they don’t recommend disassemble and just wipe down and clean while it’s assembled Iv never take. It apart. Usually clean it up best I can and chamber and rub a snake threw it. Getting ready to give her a clean again Tempted to do this full job.

[@davesgunchannel]

Thanks for commenting, I appreciate it!

[@Fanaton]

Thank you for the detailed video sir! Appreciate it! I hope there’s no big difference with 64 precision

[@davesgunchannel]

I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching! I would imagine it is very similar if not the same.

[@Just_Me187]

any tips or tricks to get my ejector back in? please and thank you

[@davesgunchannel]

I don’t really have any tips other than to keep trying. I found it to be a little bit tricky as well.

[@artizzy2k2k]

Seeing how shiny yours was before you even cleaned it I'd say mine is due for a cleaning haha

[@jaykrahn6087]

Great video. Almost exactly like my 45 year old Lakefield 64B except the Savage has a way better Safety setup. Thanks

I purchased a savage 64 this year, and all I need to disassemble mine is 2 allan keys. I don't remember what sizes.

[@ryden_jasso]

yeah same, I was like.. dang what’s all this?

[@davesgunchannel]

They must have changed some things on the newer models. Mine is quite a few years old. Thanks for commenting!

[@СпираИванов-к4ф]

Shoots 1 time and gets stuck, how to fix it? Cleaned everything. It doesn't matter. Maybe because of the clamp?

[@davesgunchannel]

I would disassemble it, examine all the parts, make sure it is properly lubricated, reassemble and try again.

[@UsmcDevildog-rd1yt]

Is this going to be the same for the synthetic stock? Also where can you get your hands on the manual

[@davesgunchannel]

Try this for the manual: www.savagearms.com/DAM/assets/pdf/Manuals/manual_autoloader.pdf Yes, it will be the same procedure for the synthetic stock. Thanks for the comment!

[@UsmcDevildog-rd1yt]

I'm fixing to do the extended charging handle any extended magazine release. Thank you for the info

[@carlosmondragon6639]

Hey boss, Would this cleaning be the same way for the savage black 22lr tactical one? I'm using your video to learn how to clean my rifle. I learned how to clean my magazine from your other video. So thanks again for helping

[@davesgunchannel]

It may not come apart the same way but the cleaning would be generally done the same way! Thanks for watching, I really appreciate it!

[@charleslefebvre5515]

After how many rounds do you clean the rifle like this? I just picked one of these up last fall. Great video with some great tips. I want to go pick some of wood cotton swabs you had. Great idea!

[@davesgunchannel]

Thanks for the question! You probably don’t need to tear it completely apart like this very often but maybe 800 to 1000 rounds or so. I would clean the bore with a bore snake after every time I shoot it and maybe a tiny drop or two of lube on the action.

[@williammoskovitz7772]

Great video !!!! Is that an aftermarket stock or a stock for an older model ?

[@davesgunchannel]

It is stock, and yes, I have had it for quite a few years! Thank you for watching the video!

@@davesgunchannel You explained and showed very well! Except for shotguns, I think this is the first time I have had to remove a barrel to get to a bolt for cleaning! Now, if you have a fix for that pathetic mag release, I am all ears! Again , a big thanks! 🙏🏼

[@fp7149]

Another question on this rifle (since you're a very expert): is dry-fire dangerous (i mean for damages on the firing pin)?

[@davesgunchannel]

It is generally NOT advised to dry-fire a rimfire rifle. So please get some dummy rounds for it that indicate they are for dry fire. Try these: Dummy Rounds .22lr: amzn.to/4d0R1bs

[@fp7149]

@@davesgunchannel thank you so much! Are empty rounds (Just the shells) ok as well?

[@davesgunchannel]

That’s a great question! I would think that would be ok as well, since the gun is designed for brass shells.

[@beewebber3231]

why did you skip where you couldn't get the ejector back in. that;s what im having trouble with and you made an edit.....

[@davesgunchannel]

Sorry about that! Were you able to get it back in? You may have to try a few times.

[@wbrown94]

Now go dump 10 rounds! Kidding. Thanks for the informative video. I get to pick up my Savage 64 next Monday. Do you recommend cleaning with these steps before ever firing it?

[@davesgunchannel]

Some manufacturers do recommend cleaning the firearm before firing it. I doubt most people actually do that, though! I would consider it, especially if the User Manual suggest it. Dave

[@wbrown94]

@davesgunchannel I think it'd be a great idea but I will have a look at the user manual. Thanks!
