I'm just getting into guns and I'm looking for recommended products.

Preferably they would be effective, safe for all finishes and non-toxic. That last one its not really important. Any suggestions? Been looking aw weapon shield stuff.

pick one

or just git gud at cleaning your guns

Do not use any solvents the are advertised as cleaning rust on a blued or rust finished gun. Bluing a gun is basically a controlled layer of rust.

If you want a solvent that will clear burnt powder, lead fouling, grease, and generic shoo but not ruin finish then just use kerosene. Wipe dry, let it air dry, then oil. Jackasses.
>>
>>32014823
Kerosene.
>>
>>32014867
The bore of your rifle isn't blued retard.
>>
>>32014881
That's odd, reread my post 8 times and never saw the word bore.

>faggots who actually baby their aks

I have an SGL31 with 6,000 rounds through it and I have never cleaned or taken apart the gas tube. Be happy that you have a straight and properly headspaced ak that won't break the fuck down if you look at it wrong.
>>
>>32014888
Every bottle of solvent that I've owned states clearly to only use it for cleaning the bore.

You can use solvents to clean your gun. Just not like OP did, because apparently he did not read the bottle label 8 times.
>>
>>32014823
ballistol or your own choice of meme clp if you can't appreciate the smell

literally any gun oil. some people even use motor oil, although i wouldn't recommend it. there are rust tests and shit on the internet, look it up.

that's all you need for sure, anything beyond that is optional.
>>
>>32014913
Yes, but you can wipe down literally every piece of metal in your gun with kerosene. Plus, it's cheap as fuck. I don't know why you would bother with 2 or 3 different cleaning products, juggle which cup is what solvent, and risk mixing things up. Just use kerosene and literally never worry.
>>
>>32014963
>and risk mixing things up

Absolutely not a problem if you're literate.
>>
>>32013532
>Hoppes Bore blaster
Did you think the "Bore" in Bore Blaster meant it only blasted bores?
>>
>>32014712
Hoppes does not effect bluing
>>
>>32014881
Yes it is
You don't plug the barrel

>>32014867
Hopped is a majority kerosene
>>
>>32014990
Do you use your solvents straight out of the bottle? Have fun with cross contamination, broham. Must not buy a lot of milsurp.
>>
>>32015026
Are you fucking retarded?
>>
>>32015048
Not him but I keep things separated in baby food jars.
Just me being paranoid or OCD.
>>
>>32015099
Solvents dissolve stuff
You can't cross contaminate from a solvent since the solvent dissolves it

That's like saying you cross contaminated biohazards from a bottle of alcohol
It can't happen and even if it did its irrelevant
>>
>>32015199
Right, I know that, I just keep compressed solvents in jars so I can use a more controlled cleaning method.
It sounds dumb but it makes me feel better to clean a bore by dipping the bore snake.
I do the same thing with my oils.
It also helped me clear some surface rust from a rifle when I used rust remover and q-tips, just poured it in a jar and placed liquid where it was needed.
>>
>>32015048
You ever clean cosmoline off a rifle so caked in it you could wipe it out of the chamber with your finger? Have fun dumping hopes #shill all over your patches and smearing it through the bore, friendo. I'll just keep stripping my guns and throwing all the metal in my kerosene dunk tank that cost as much as your 4 oz bottle of brand name solvent.
>>
>>32015199
>tries to clean his barrel
>stuffs residue back into the threads.
You realize that when the solvent evaporates anything dissolved in it stays behind, right? Try boiling some salt water some time, kid. This is grown up talk.
>>
This is almost as dumb as people trying to tell others that bore snakes don't corrode barrel rifling.
>>
>>32013532
>arsenal AK

I see their legendary finishes still continue on.
>>
>military paint on military weapon

>same paint izhmash uses

>Same paint izhmash has used since 1959

you got a problem with russian and bulgarian military AK's?

they are designed to be cleaned with oil, quit using caustic solvents.

That's oil, broham. It'll work, but it's not going to strip metal clean while leaving a finish intact. It won't strip the metal at all.
>>
>>32015392
Brass and rope pulled through at a slow pace sren't going to have any appreciable effect on your barrel, it's nothing like a coper coated lead slug travelling st a couple thousand fps swedging itself down the rifling.

You're an idiot if you think a bore snake does any more damage than a brass brush.

>>32015916

bore snakes trek all the dirt right back into the barrel, literally the worst cleaning tool ever.

It's fucking appliance enamel, just spray it with some more you sperg.
