Maybe you should try a tub of baking soda!

How about this: put the gun in a soft case. Liberally sprinkle (mabye a whole box or more) a bunch of baking soda inside the soft case. Shake it up so the gun gets covered with the baking soda. Let sit for a good long while. The baking soda might leech the smell out of the wood.

Before you go doing all of this cleaning how hot did these guns get? You didn't say but I am assuming that not hot enough to burn wood or melt plastic?????

They didnt get burnt, it is only the smell of the smoke.

I just read your post regarding the house fire. I am a fire restoration contractor here in the Atlanta area. I deal with homeowners contents daily. The baking soda will do close to nothing to remove the odor. Smoke will permeate all nooks, crannies, and crevices. I use several chemicals that are specific to removing smoke molecules, thereby removing odor. You can contact your local "Fire/Water Damage Restoration Company". They can put you in contact with a local supplier. Her is a link to my supplier: http://www.jon-doninc.com/catalog/default.php?cPath=82_2478&osCsid=58d190d8fb8de 3fef86acea7b3950682

A call to these guys would be of use as well. You will at the very least need to break each firearm down to its simplest components and clean each one. Hope this helps.
