*ugh!*

Reminds me, I need to get a ste of gunsmith picks because they’re useful for getting into the small crevices around the Ruger 10/22 firing pin.
I have a bit of carbon fouling there that makes it not fuction at times.

Good point. I just might get some myself. The Charter Arms is easy for basic cleaning , but I’ve heard gunsmiths don’t like it much because it can be a pain to disassemble. I’ve never tied to take it fully apart, no need to with this gun. But I don’t think I’d attempt it after this.

Oven cleaner dissolves carbon.

I have had excellent luck using an ice pick. I also use spray brake cleaner to clean the actions and crevaces of my guns. You can get the spray brake cleaner at any auto parts store. It does an excellent job of getting everything clean. I have a Ruger MK-I pistol. It has places that are hard to get at as well.
We can turn this ZOT thread into a gun thread.
