What’s the best way to get this shit off? Polished stainless steel
>>
>>64199190
Birch-wood Casey Lead Remover and Polishing Cloth, buy a couple and they’ll last you awhile, I literally just used one earlier today to do exactly what you’re doing on my Colt and it looks almost brand new with minimal scrubbing.
>>
>>64199198
This. It’s the “it just works” cleaning product for this particular material and mess
>>
>>64199198
Thank you
>>
>>64199206
Of course bro, I just discovered them myself and I’m preaching the magic to anyone with a revolver, spent a lot of time attempting to scrub that stuff off that this just wiped off in a few passes. It even kills rust spots on stainless.
>>
Get what shit off? I don't see anything wrong here. If you're talking about the lead rings then it's normal. Leave the gun alone bro.

Also lead is an incredible resistant metal to solvents. Any acid you get meme'd into buying to solve this non-issue is going to also going to react to the steel in your gun.

>>64199225
Are you some kind of jew who has found a way to profit off of people having dirty guns? You can’t keep me from cleaning my magnum shlomo

Found the schizo lead merchant

You're going to love this new technology, anons. It's true that you're a century and a half late, but it's never too late to embrace progress!
>>
>>64199253
But I can cast lead…
>>
>>64199268
Well if you want to LARP as a frontiersman, then you should accept having frontiersman problems like cosmetic lead rings that harm nothing.
>>
>>64199190
I use Fitz polish. Front of the cylinder has a mirror shine after a minute of use. Some say this can affect the cylinder gap over time, but I'm not worried about adding .001" to the gap over a few years.

You can also electroplate them at home if you just can't bear to give a cent to the jacket jew or the gas check jew
>>
>>64199253
The ammo I was using was copper plated
>>
>>64199190
Angle grinder.
>>
>>64199268
And you can swage jackets. In fact you should swage the bullets too, it's much faster than casting.
>>
>>64199190
Leave it moron.
>>
>>64199289
He also doesn't realize those rings seal the gap naturally.
>>
>>64199268
You can, but you don't.
>>
>>64199253
Copper jacketing has nothing to do with carbon fouling in stainless revolvers ya schizo.

>>64199290
Nobody do this, bad idea when there’s much more gentle products for the job, don’t be like that retard in /hg/ that removed rust from a slide with sandpaper, right tool, right job.
>>
>>64200658
>carbon fouling
is not a thing, neither is copper fouling.
but please, pay 5$ for this bottle of special cleaner made of $0.20 of mineral spirits and mineral oil plus fragrance
>>
>>64200697
Lmao noguns, have you seen ammo prices lately? If you’re going to exaggerate, you should do it with more than 5 rounds of ammo in .44 mag than the same in price for equivalent cleaning products.
>>
>>64200712
>have you seen ammo prices
No, I handload all my ammo, as should you
>>
Soak it in in a bowl of fluoroantimonic acid over night. By tomorrow morning it'll look good as new.
>>
>>64200725
Based hand loader.. I don’t save any money, but I shoot a lot more than if I bought factory ammo…
>>
>>64200449
Not at the moment because it’s hot as hell…. But I do actually cast my 454 and 500 rounds. Need to get a heavy 357 mold
>>
>>64199198
This
But actually just leave it on there, looks hard and doesn't hurt anything
>>
>>64199290
What happened to the Flitz cloths? They were the best way to fix idiot scratches on 1911s
>>
>>64199190
I fail to see how it's an issue if your cylinder still closes
