Dmitry,

I take it one better.

I strip the gun COMPELETELY down, and boil the parts in several changes of soapy water, followed by a bath or two in clean water as a rinse.

After that, all of the parts are hot enough that they flash dry nicely.

Smith & Wesson is dead to me.

If you want a Smith & Wesson, buy USED!
