Cleaning full camo muzzleloader?
 
I was intending on buying a Knight rolling block in black composite stock / stainless steel barrel but ran up on a deal on the full camo version that I couldn't turn down. A buddy of mine won it through a hunt club raffle and sold it $200 cheaper than what the club purchased it for from a local sporting goods store. So I bought it and as usual, the instruction manual that comes with it is lame which seems to be the norm now for any instruction manual. All it says is not to use any gun cleaners on it so it makes me wonder just how durable is this camo dipping process? Does anyone have any information, good or bad,on camo muzzleloaders / rifles / shotguns that use this dip process? Also, since the entire trigger assembly drops out of the bottom does anyone know if the safety behind the trigger can be reversed since I'm a southpaw. I guess that isn't critical but I have a shotgun with a reversed safety and I've kinda gotten use to it. Thanks

That Camo Dipping on your KRB
well it it is , Sorry to tell you this BUT : Scrole down







QUITE Durrable nothing to worry about at all juast take a damp cloth and wipe it off , also you can use a very litely oiled cloth and go over it also.
I'm sorry I couldn't help my self. But I will give you your money back on it for sure, I have the Black / SS and I LOVE this gun it is a great shooter.

the durability of a camo dipped gun varies. its supposed to be like the paint on a car. if strong cleaning chemicals get on it maybe it will eat through. it does rust proof and make a gun more durable to the elements but no where near other type finishes. just keep the harsh chemicals away and if it need a touch up do it yourself with krylon or have it re- dipped or duracoated but you shouldnt have to for a while with normal use.
