Wiping Down the Outside Cylinder of a Rome 22caliber Revolver

Video Transcript

"So here's our scrubbed down cylinder, we've cleaned out the inside of the chambers. And now what we're going to do is we're going to wipe down this outside area. And we're going to use a couple patches and we may use one or two of these Q-tips and screwdrivers. What I like to do first is I like to put a patch on both these faces and, as you can see here, there's a little bit of a lip here. And that is what I like to use, I just set that patch over the whole front and I just find that lip and I just run this screwdriver around that inside lip, see what I can get. And you can see we pulled off a little bit of grime. The corners of these things are a little bit easier, it's an easier storage area. You can almost think of it as a snow drift, or with a dust storm, things are going to collect in the corners of things and you can see here that it collected in the corner. I'm going to do one more wipe with that just to make sure I got it. We're looking pretty good. And I'm just going to kind of do the same thing on this other face, but it doesn't have a lip so I'm just going to have it here and I'm just going to use the flat blade of this screwdriver. What I'm going to do is I'm just going to kind of walk this thing around all these chamber holes. Remember, we've already done all our scrubbing, so everything has broken free and loose and what we're trying to do now is we're using this patch basically as a all intents and purposes like a little vacuum cleaner. We're using it to wipe this stuff up. And we just walk our way all the way around like we did just there and you can see on the bottom of the patch, we got a little bit of stuff, but not much and we're looking pretty good on the front of that face. I'm going to switch back to my first, to my front face here and I'm going to check around all these chambers now. We cleaned around that lip."
