Hi All,
For my MN I boil a large tea kettle of water. I use dish soap with water and scrub the bore. I take the rifle out of the stock and rinse the bolt, magazine well and rifle (Inside and out) with the hot water using the sink for the over flow. The hot water helps the parts dry. Before I do any more cleaning, I wash the gunk off the cleaning rod and brush then I rinse thoroughly so I don't risk transfering any salt. I finish up with a black powder solvent and finally Kroil. I have an M1 on which I did a good job on the bore but missed a spot outside the chamber. A constant reminder as to the power of corrosive ammo. As my BIL says,"It's just salt." rinse thoroughly and protect the metal afterwards. BTW, I believe ammonia itself is corrosive, hence I would avoid the window cleaners.:barf:
Best,
Rob
