Wiping Down the Bolt of a Springfield XD 9mm Handgun

Video Transcript

"Alright so now we have the bottom of the bolt here and we're going to get a couple patches and we're going to just lay them down flat and we're actually going to use this screwdriver and we're just going to get into these small areas and just work this around. Right here we're on the side of the bolt. The screwdriver just fits perfectly. Some people like to use toothpicks and I use to use toothpicks myself I just noticed over time when I found this screwdriver that it works a lot better. It's not going to break. I can use a patch just as easily as I can use a toothpick and the patch actually helps pick that dirt and lift it away from the surface where as if I'm using a toothpick I'm just in there and it's kind of gunking up and I'm actually just pushing it towards a corner, it's not pulling it away. So I just find this as a personal preference to be a little bit better. Remember we've done a lot of our scrubbing so a lot of this is us just picking up that dirt and the excess break free that we had in there. And remember feel free to use as much time as you want or you need for your firearm. You know me with this firearm it just so happens that I?m here and this makes me the judge of this firearm, but you with your firearm is going to make you the judge with yours so if you feel you need to spend a little more time or a little less time in there feel free to do it. There's no rush or no problem with doing that."
