On my YouTube channel I've had a few requests to show how I clean black powder guns. This three part series shows my techniques.

I'm not saying this is the only way to clean black powder guns, nor am I saying it's the best way. All I'm saying is that it is my way. And this year marks my 40th year shooting B-P. This works for me.

Part 1: Cleaning products & shotgun cleaning
Part 2; Rifle cleaning
Part 3: Revolver cleaning

I really appreciate these videos. While you have 45 years BP
experience with cleaning I have just a few with a muzzleloader and
now single action Colt. I've learned quite abit plus some of my
techniques are reinforced since you use them-- I'll stick with them.

I'm particularly pleased that my Ballistol obsession is consistent with
yours. The Ballistol to water ratio is new to me-- I'll begin to use it
It looks less expensive compared to using 100% Ballistol.

About a year ago I began using Ballistol to the exterior of my firearms,
BP or not, and found that it yielded a deeper looking blue-- I liked it
so have continued to use it from time to time. The Ballistol pretties
up the blue on decades old firearms.

Well, thanks for the videos.

David,

Thanks for the feedback. I'll be doing some muzzleloading videos later this Fall, and I'll probably do a cleaning video for them. My muzzleloader cleaning technique is different.
 
Yep, I like the Balistol product as well. It's all I've been using (plus water) for the last 4-5 years. Been shooting BP MLs for >30yrs. Thanks Mike.
