I ran into another hunter new to ML hunting with a fairly new TC Triumph and the end of the barrel looked kind of funny. It was a camo finish and about 8" of the business end of the barrel had what looked like just beige primer paint. I asked what happened and he said while cleaning he noticed some residue on the end of the barrel so he put some of the cleaning solvent on a rag and wiped the barrel. He was shocked to see the factory paint just wipe off. I asked what type of solvent he used and said it was what was suggested by the gun shop where he bought the gun but couldn't remember the brand. I told him to check the container and see if there are any warnings about applications on either painted or plastic surfaces. He was sick about it and I told him to either repaint the barrel or perhaps in the off season send back to TC for a repair. I told him I always wipe down my guns after barrel cleaning but use a rag sprayed with gun oil not a barrel solvent then again with a silicone rag. They go into a climate controlled safe. Anyone have any input on this in case I see him again.
