Cleaning an 1954 mfg. Remington 11-48 that I just picked up. I don't think it has been cleaned since it left the factory. Got everything looking good but the firing pin mech. I is coated with old oil and fouling. I do not want to take it apart. I have used Gun Scrubber and that helped a bit.

Is there anything I can use to soak this thing in for over night or longer if needed?

Thanks in advance for any help..

I feel so stupid. I meant to say the trigger mech. I already have the pin removed and cleaned.

Forgive me, I am fighting the flu.

Thanks again
