Wiping Down the Bolt of a Ruger Mark 2 Gun

Video Transcript

"Alright, here we are with the bolt. Its looking pretty good. We got the break free set in here, we had it scrubbed up pretty good a little bit ago. We scrubbed the bolt face. We're going to take a couple more of these patches here. We're just going to give a wipe and see where we're picking up most of this dirt. I'm wiping down here. I notice I'm getting a little bit of extra dirt here in the bottom of the bolt where it slides inside the receiver. So, never feel like you can't go back and use your brushes again, repeat your first steps to cleaning to putting break free on to using your brushes here like we have here. These brushes, its a totally repeatable process. I'm looking inside here, I got a little bit of stuff coming up, but not much that I think I'm going to need to use my brushes again. So what I'm going to do is so I'm going to take my little flat blade screwdriver here in the patch and this is just kind of a personal thing, I'm just going to use this, I'm going to lightly rub with this patch inside the bottom of this bolt. Just kind of clean those slides out, some of the smoother actioning. Its kind of a piece of mind kind of cleaning here. Give it a look, its looking pretty good. And remember, some of these areas that you come out, it may be a little bit different for you and if you have these dirty, you find a place that's dirty, spend a little bit more time on it. Don't be afraid to really clean these things up. I mean these firearms take a lot of abuse when we're out there having fun with them. There's nothing with cleaning them up and making them look good. Alright, that's looking pretty good. I think what we're going to do is we're going to come over and we're going to move on to our lower receiver and we're going to give it a good wipe down and see what we can't get out of it."
