DETAILED CLEANING TECHNIQUES… (cont’d.)

4. Remove Patch Holder and attach Bore Brush (leaving it two turns short of tight).

5. Pull the Brush through the Bore and out the Muzzle. You should be able to see the Rod

twisting as you pull it - this is the Brush “tracking” in the riﬂing.

NEVER

reverse the direction of the Bore Brush while it is in the Bore.

6. After one pull, take o the handle section and repeat the process. After three or four

pulls, the three rod sections and the Bore Brush may become screwed tightly

together. Loosen them up and repeat the proce

ss.

7. Send a patch through the Bore occasionally to help clean out the crud that the brush

is getting loose. Just replace the Bore Brush with the Rod Tip (Patch Holder) and a

wet patch. Pull it through. If you leave the rods loose again, the patch will “track” in the

riﬂing as before. But remember, always have the Bore

wet with cleaner

before trying

to pull a brush thro

ugh.

Use Chamber Brush soaked with CLP to clean the inside of the Gas Block.

2. Remove carbon and clean top of barrel just

forward of the Gas Block where hot gas is

ported out of the Gas Regulator

3. Wipe down Piston Rod and Piston Spring.

4. Lubricate all parts and wipe dry.
