[QUOTE="Robert G, post: 1053736, member: 11197"] Many, many thanks to you all. The use of 3 in 1 motor oil was a substance that as a kid was used by my grandfather to clean rifles and shotguns. Looking back on it now maybe it was all he could afford to keep on hand? Anyway you all made points that was what caused me to start reconsidering its use. Since this is one of only a few brand new out of the box pistols I ever owned I have only cleaned it three times so far. Hopefully tonight I will take the time to break it down and strip off what has accumulated. My other firearms will take much more work I'm afraid because of years of using 3 and 1. Again, thank you all very much for your time in explaining WHY this was not the way to clean a weapon properly. [/QUOTE]
