After not having activly kept up with whats happening in bp trends for quite a few years, & recently rekindling my interest in getting the old smokepole out again (i drifted away about the time pyrodex came out on the market sad to say) i'm in awe of many of the developments & new products on the market. sooooooooooo its time to do some catching up on things.
Anyway, after much reading online, & seeing many new trends have appeared (not to mention many new products) its time to get my feet wet again.
One big change i see from way back when is cleaning of the traditional bp firearms. in my day (easy on me guys LOL) it was pretty much soap and water followed by a good drying out & lube to protect from rust, now however i'm reading about so many cleaning methods, from more traditional bp solvent, to any combination of alcohol, windex, water & not to mention a few other things. ive even seen things such as carb cleaner & brake cleaner mentioned.
Now, to the crux of my post, what does everyone use & how well does it work?
