Doing the Final Wipe Down of a Rome 22caliber Revolver

Video Transcript

"Now we're going to do a little bit of a wipe down. I have my oil rag here and, really, I call this my oil rag so much as it wasn't impregnated with oil, but I only use this in my cleaning process as a wipe down tool, a wipe down rag. The only thing that's ever been on this, I haven't never had any solvents or major cleaners on it, I've only had Break Free rim oil. Then I just use this as a wipe down when I'm getting ready to put my firearm away. What I'm going to do is I'm just going to kind of hold the grips with my right hand and I'm just going to take this rag. Really what I'm doing here is kind of what I was doing with the patches but on a larger scale. I'm just kind of going around and I'm picking up my fingerprints that I put on it during reassembly, I'm taking off some of the extra oil that may be on there. We're going to look around, I'm going to flip it over, I'm going to wipe this strap here. At the bottom of this trigger assembly, get in there, and wipe that cylinder pretty good. Really, what I try to do now is I try not to handle the firearm as much as possible with my bare hands, I just kind of do it with the rag. What we're going to talk about next is just general storage of the firearm and we're going to go over safety and just a basic storage of your firearm next."
