How not to clean your gun !!!!!!

[rkbo]

I told on myself in the reloading section making many tend to think I might not be firing on all cylinders. Well this story will take away all doubt.

I bought my son a used rifle and we took it straight to the range. I was letting him sight it in and all that. Well he was complaining that the bolt was a little sticky acting. "Let me see that son" "Probably dirty from the previous owner". Well if any of you have used Bore scrub in a spray can you know how powerful that stuff is.

I reach in the back of the truck and pop the top of a can and proceed to drench the action with the barrel pointing at the ground. Wow what a bunch of black crap comming out of that barrel. My son looking as if I was strangling a puppy said loudly "DAD, WHAT ARE YOU DOING" "Cleaning all that crap out of your gun. Whad'da ya think I'm doing" says I. He points at the can with the same look on his face...........

It was black spray paint........oooops wrong can!! I with out a flinch hand him back the rifle and say "NOW......when you get all that paint out of there you'll have a clean rifle."

He will never let me forget that one.

Holy cow. Poor kid. Now he has to go to school and be ashamed of his dad, while the rest of the kids brag on how thier dad used gun scrubber.

Na seriously. I understand how things like that may happen. Funny story. Thanks goodness it hasn't happened to me. But you need to finish the story. Did he get the paint out?

After disassembly, cleaning, and polishing parts and 4 hrs later it was better than new. Ahhh........father, son bonding at it's finest.
