Dry naturally or in the dryer?

Dip it in the mud hole on the range and lay it in the sun to dry

This is what I do. I put a zip tie around it so it doesn't get tangled around anything. Usually wash them with my rags.

Detergent won't leave anything that can harm the barrel, right?

Throw it in the trash and get one of these.

It shouldn't. The rinse cycle should remove the detergent anyway.

Soap or detergent?

they make zippered mesh bags that you put delicate items in.

when your tactical skivvies get soaked with butt gravy, just throw the snek in with them.

Stick it in a sock and wash with the rest of your laundry.

take it to a public laundromat. let the local poors try and get hoppes #9 and lead residue out of their laundry

I have both and prefer the boresnake, fuck fixing patches when you have a washable and reusable device. But hey as long as you stay away from cheap metal cleaning rods you're ok. To answer OP, I wash them with low detergent with some old hospital type rags I use to clean guns. Afterward I just run them under the sink real quick and set them out to air dry.

I just use dish soap, either would be fine im sure - they both cut grease (gun oil)

I use dish soap

put it in an empty gatorade bottle with some detergent. Shake well. Rinse. That way, you don't get lead and shit in your washer.

Throw it in the washer with a load of whites

boresnakes are garbage, and so is your bore if you use one

Empty milk jug filled with soap and water

Washing machine? Jesus man...just imagine the residues on your clothes...

>>30769051
People wash these? I just buy a new one every couple of years.

I think you all clean your guns too often.
