"Shooters" Care and Maintenance

After each shooting is when you clean it.

How is that you remove the cannon-barrel assembly, remove the toggle assembly and take the grips off.

Then clean the bore from the breech end.

Take some solvent and a small brush (army type toothbrush) and scrub everywhere that you can reach as well as everything else you can touch with the brush.

After that, take a can of BRAKECLEAN and hose away, washing everything. Let it dry.

Then just slop either Breakfree CLP or (better) Clenzoil on everything, put a drop at every working joint or pivot and anywhere metal moves. Run a patch wet with Clenzoil or CLP through the bore. Really get the Clenzoil everywhere and plenty of it. I mean you want Clenzoil or CLP on EVERY metal surface.

Then wait a little bit.

Now, take an old T shirt or some other cloth and wipe away all the excess oil, keeping the oily shirt handy.

Reassemble the pistol and use the rag to wipe off any left over excess oil. A DROP of Clenzoil at the toggle pivots and a drop on the sliding surfaces is all the extra lubrication needed. Then wipe the pistol off again.


That's it.
