Pete,

I have been watching your channel for a while now. I research and buy guns due to the info. you provide. I was looking for another one of your vids. I have to ask, I stumbled across someone with a channel called "TheArmoryChannal" it looked like yours but it took me a couple of minutes to realize what was going on. Is this guy one of your trolls? Or is he a friend just joking around?

What you said DOES make sense, but why do "they" say to clean the barrel from the feed ramp towards front of barrel?

[theARMORYchannel]

@sheba106 only if your useing a metal brush.

I think the worst thing you can do is to scratch the front end the crown of the barrel. If you scratch this your accuracy will go tits up and you have to let the barrel re-crown by a gunsmith. I personally would always clean from the chamber to the muzzle.

Thanks for the advise on the ballistol. I go crazy when my wood is damaged. How did you get rid of that allen wrench in the front & get a plug?...

Nice video Pete, picked up good cleaning pointers from this video.

I just bought a smith& wesson 1911 should I lube the barrel before I fire it?

I think ballistol is the cure for cancer as well haha. But really thanks for the vid, helpful stuff. Bout to pick up my first gun on saturday, Sig Sauer 1911. Can't wait to fire it, clean it, and fire it again. I'll make sure to look around to see if I can find some ballistol anywhere. And just an idea, you could make a video cleaning the bore with hoppies then recleaning with the ballistol showing the dirt that the hoppies missed. Would be interested in watching that. I'll probably try t

I just got my first gun, which happend to be a 1911, and this video helped immensly. Thanks for all the help. I've been watching a while as I was getting into firearms. You really break it down piece by piece to explain why for everything. Good work!

I love how on your video on Ballistol's website it says "WARNING: Some videos may contain language that is offensive to some people." LOL

Hey Pete, love your videos keep up the great work! I had a question about ballistol because from watching your videos I trust your opinion on taking care of firearms. How does it compare to any gun oils in the past that you have used as far as preserving your firearm? Does it evaporate quickly when the gun isn't in use and you need to apply more to lube the gun? I'm just looking for your opinion on how long the preservatives last in ballistol compared to a gun oil?

Hey what's up Pete. Sexy 1911. Shot my first one last night. What an amazing fucking gun. I was shooting the Glock 23 first and my shots were all over the place. Then I decided to try the 1911, and I shot so great with it I shot out the entire orange. Anyway, I live in a small town in Montgomery County PA and my town has the same stupid siren for fires. I hate it!!!!

Hey Pete you can get Ballistol and Tetra gun grease on Amazon.com. If memory serves the liquid Ballistol was 12.95.
