sheepherder: good point, maybe a little residue after shooting is a good thing, in that it will ensure that I clean the gun after the range.
mrerick: Thanks for the considerable information and links, I'll have to spend a few days following and reading all of the sources you've listed.
Ben: When would you recommend using 0000 steel wool on the Luger?
mrerick and Wilhelm: Yes, I agree that I'm spending too much time on the barrel. I had thought the only consequence was the extra time, but now that you mention that I may be causing the bore damage, I'll definitely re-evaluate my cleaning process.
Thanks,
Jeff
