Hi, Many of you may know of Labgrade's untimely passing in a fire at his home.
His wife Crystal has asked me to help in the identification and salvaging of his gun collection. His firearms were mostly contained in two gun safes. I have not been able to get closer that 25 yards to look at them so far. Now that the sheriff, fire department and insurance inspections are over we are going to go and salvage what we can.
One safe appears to be partially opened and the other is still intact and closed. My question is what is the best method to clean smoke damaged firearms?
I have been told that kerosene may be the first thing to try to get rid of the soot.
I would like to salvage whatever I can and maybe have some of them restored. He had sevearl guns that held setimental value like his .243 he had since childhood.
