Hey Pete, I feel better now that I know you've had this SA. I just bought one today and then found your vids on it. If you could, could you direct me on exactly how to remove the 2 piece guide rod?
I am not trolling you Pete but, I disagree in not removing the firing pin. If you do get cleaner/gunk in the firing pin tunnel it may cause the pin to gunk up and have issues. I had an issue when I purchased a used 1911. I detail stripped the Colt slide and damn near could not remove the ejector or the firing pin, so I always detail strip the slide. I do not mind cleaning my 1911. I use X-1R Gun Grease, when I wipe down the areas with grease the power residue wipes out very easily. Thanks again.
is Hoppes pronounces as you say it like "hoppies" or is it like "hops" ive always called it "hops" cause thats what i heard. guess it dont matter or anything.
hey pete, that's the first thing i do too..it only makes sense to treat the barrel first while you do other parts since you need 15-20 minutes for it to work
Another outstanding video Pete. I think you now have one of the very best channels on YouTube. The information you provide to viewers is top notch, useful and accurate. No bullshit, and all the right information.
Hmmmmm. I pride myself on cleaning my fire arms well after firing (I'm ex-Army, after all). But, I confess, I don't often break the mags down and clean 'em out. I was surprised how much shit was down there after one firing.
hey if you put some hoppes in the cap, you wont have to dip your brush in the bottle and put shit in your hoppes. Just throw out the cap full when done. I started doing this after I saw what was at the bottom of my bottle, after a hundread cleanings.
Hey brother, you still have this gun? I just picked up a new loaded this week. I love it

A quick question. Do you worry about putting contaminates back into the Hoppe's bottle? Just wondering?
ketel1 2 years ago
Nice video. Does smelling the Hoppe's start to make you loopy after a while? I think it smells good, but it has to be toxic as hell. lol
