Doing the Final Wipe Down on a Ruger Mark 2 Gun

Video Transcript

"Alright. Here we are with our reassembled Mark 2. And this is just kind of an oil rag. This isn't something that I've bought oiled up already. This is just something that just over the years I've been using so much that I call it my oiled rag and simply I call it that because I only use it to do a final wipe down on my firearms. And what I do is, I just kind of go over everything with it. I don't use any abrasive cleaners inside this rag. This rag has only been ever used to wipe up or clean up break free or rim oil which is both are good products for your firearm itself. Alright, give it a good wipe down here. I'm just going to kind of touch over some of these areas with my bare hands. Just kind of do a glide and see if I can't pickup anything where some extra buildup of some break free or some rim oil or something along those lines is kind of built up and I'm not really feeling any. And then basically what I do and just kind of a personal habit, I'll do one last final wipe down then I'll kind of cover it with the rag and I'll just carry it like this instead of putting my hands back on it because our hands naturally have oils in them that can dry out metal. So I'll just keep this rag on here and I'll take this and then I'll just go put it in the bag as I go to put it away."
