I never really cared for my dad's old .38 special. It's got Charter Arms stamped on it, little snubby.
Today I finally got the courage to shoot about 50 rounds down the range today, and hey, I like it! At first I was all over the place, hitting slightly low at 10 feet, but after compensating for it (I think the front sight is too short) I was almost shooting as accurately with the .38 as I was with the .380 auto. I'm finally able to handle the recoil, even with the ridiculously uncomfortable and short wooden grip.
So now that I've gotten it dirty, I need some help. How should I clean it? I'm getting pretty good at taking apart, cleaning, and putting back together the Ruger 22/45, but haven't the slightest clue with how to properly clean and oil this revolver. Thanks!
