what are some
pm tricks
you
do for your
weapons that
aren’t called
for in the
tm?
and tell
me how you
came up
with them.
I’ve always
used the
firing pin as
a
cleaning
tool…
especially
for getting
carbon off
the bolt.
the firing
pin is
great
for that.
when I was a
kid in aIt an
old sergeant
gave me that tip
and I’ve passed
it on to other
soldiers for
years.
kill this
rumor!
and bonnie
learns
at fort
gone…
the first unit
I was in a guy
told me that
if I
really
wanted my
rifle clean
to use
carburetor
or
oven
cleaner.
and boy was he
right!
that stuff really shines
up my rifle
great.
I’ve
helped so many new
soldiers with that tip.
darn right that stuff
cleans. it cleans so
well it takes the
finish
right off
your
weapon and
ruins
the
barrel grooves. soon
your weapon is
junk!
yeah, oven
cleaner is
good, but this
cleaning tool
I made…
…is
terrific
for
cleaning out carbon
in the chamber and
barrel. I’ve made
lots
of these for
soldiers over the
years.
it’s helped
ruin
many
weapons. it scores
the inside of the
chamber and barrel.
later at fort
nowhere…
using the
firing pin
to clean
blunts
the
pin’s tip.
eventually
the firing
pin
can’t
fire the
round.
kill this rumor!
kill
this
rumor!
