Re: Since it's the end of the world!

I'll simply say: We did not read the available info right! The Mayans did not really say the world would end, just their caleandar. Restarted, as we know now. Whoops...sigh! I admit having been in a short term of inner questioning. But that did not interfere with my purchases..... But that is over n...

I wanted to buy a Mauser, but they had only 2 that looked ...

:D Well noticed, SA1911 ! :D My comment simply is : If powder were oil-based, it would be like make-up. If it stays in the chamber, clean it off like JYD posted. There is no other way i know or can imagine to clean up chambers. I hope there will be some time before they blow baby powder towards my s...

Buck, that does not work here anymore.....if there is a rifle showing up for cleaning in her grease, wife's comment is : I was not introduced to that one , yet. :roll: I don't know, she also knows a SKS from a Mosin. So i'll leave the SKS in grease, until the Mosin thing is forgotten...... :biggrin:...
