I just read the thread on this subject and am puzzled as to why no one has mentioned the easiest way to do this. I use it on all my firearms and find no harmful effects from it.
A 50-50 mix of white vinegar and hydrogen peroxide, plug the bore with a rubber stopper, pour into the chamber carefully, let soak for 5 minutes, drain, swab with clean patches a few times, lead is gone, run a few water wet patches through, run a oiled patch through the bore, done. Can reuse the solution many times. Am careful not to get on bluing, don't know what would happen, don't care to find out.
Criticisms welcome.
