Ever use carb cleaner on your nipples?
NO! not those nipples.... these;
on a black powder rifle? It worked great!!!
If you don't clean the residue off at the end of the season the entire gun corrodes really fast. Most Civil War re-enactors tell me to just let it "brown up". I guess the Brown Bess was brown for a reason. but that's rust ya'll and I just have a problem with that. Yes I use an 1857 replica for deer hunting kinda weird I know. The state where I started to hunt a smoke pole regulated how it was loaded and only iron sites and I thought these were cool anyway. That was in the mid 90's and the barrel is still shinier than my Barracuda bumpers!
I've never worried about the deer being scare off by it, they only ever see a big dark hole!
Anyway, can anyone think of a reason why one shouldn't use carb or break cleaner on the metal bits? thanks in advance.
