so, how long does it take you guys to clean your handguns. i'm either too slow, to anal, or to dumb. we (me and future wife) got back from the range today at 2:30pm. I was cleaning Beretta 90-TWO F and H&K P2000 till 5pm !!! well, they are clean, that's for sure. i sprayed both with gun cleaner thing, let it sit there for 10 minutes, then sprayed each part again and scrubbed with soft brush (barrel, slide, spring, grip). little bit of bronze brush with few drops of oil for the barrel, then dry barrel snake. the grip takes the longest i think. i used up 30 or so cotton q-tips per gun. reaching into every little spot, getting all the dirt out until none was left. i mean, damne! it's clean alright. then oil... few drops on trigger mechanics, slide release, mag release, a drop on my fingers and applied on the recoil spring, a drop on the moving parts attached to the barrel (Beretta), and tiny bit on the slide rails. put it back together, rack the slide several times, pull trigger (UNLOADED pointed in SAVE DIRECTION, please don't flame me) few times, to make sure the oil gets in all the right places. then disasemble again, wipe excess oil off. assemble again. rack few times. last final wipe on the outside. NEXT. two guns like this took over 2 hours.
is this excessive compulsive syndrome, or just good care of my guns ?!?!?
------------------------
GF shoot for the first time in her life, for real i mean, not including one time crappy $5 per 6 shots on a range somewhere in PA for few hours four months ago. she put 250 rounds through my (now hers , not by my choice ) Beretta 90-TWO .40 S&W. after few mags, she no longer had the twitch when firing, and on the last box, well, see for yourself, from about 7-8 yards.
not bad Dorothy !!!
