Manual

suggest once or twice a year in a temperate climate, or as often as
once a month in a tropical climate. If you carry a loaded revolver, UN-
LOAD it and clean it at least once a month. If you get your revolver
wet, clean it as soon as possible.
HOW TO CLEAN
A collector's revolver should only be wiped gently on the outside sur-
faces with a very soft dust-free cloth.
Others should be cleaned as follows:
The following cleaning procedure may be used both periodically and
after firing; however, those items marked
..*..
are unnecessary for perio-
dic cleaning.
Materials: Cleaning rod, cotton flannel patches (cut to fit snugly into
the bore), a small tooth-brush, good quality light gun oil, *gun clean-
ing solution, and a brass wire bristle bore cleaning bush.
NOTE: In freezing conditions (below 32°F or a°C) avoid the use of oil
for lubrication; instead, apply a dry lubricant sparingly.

CLEANING PROCEDURE:
ill 1. CAUTION: ENSURE THAT THE FIREARM IS NOT LOADED.
2. Strip for cleaning as previously described.
NOTE: Avoid contact between cleaning rod and muzzle as resultant
wear will reduce accuracy. Take care to avoid striking rear frame of re-
volver as severe cases result in burring of the metal around firing pin
hole which could contribute to eventual firing failures.
