Nicely done.
This is some serious oldschool cleaning.
My suggestion would be to use non flammable gun oil. A military grade used for a M16, and any AR. (I get my cleaning kits from Thiesens) and I use it for all my guns. One drop of oil here and there is not enough.. doing that can actually cause your gun to jam quickly and or burn and damage the outer casing of your gun if you dont use enough oil.
Sometimes using a little too much wont hurt, you might get a little oil splatter when firing your fist few rounds off, but it will not hurt anything, as long as your using good high quality nonflammable gun oil.
Except I use this stuff
lullaby
This ol Marine almost forgot
Thanks Mitch
What I meant can you use a cast-iron bullet in a semi-automatic pistol
This was GREAT! Excellent instruction without the editorial crap that one sometimes sees in these, that often have NOTHING to do with the issue. Ten out of 10!!!! Thanks so much!
wow thx
He put hand in the way so I couldn’t see hat he did when he said…"First thing, open your slide"….couldn’t see what he did. Also when he demonstrates, cameraman should get an extreme close-up
I hate when people get that close to talk
why 30 "dislikes" ?? liberals surfing youtube
Guys, great video….a real confidence-builder!

I don’t even own a gun, but I enjoyed this for some reason
Now I finally got my package I ordered two days ago from *expansion2 on wickr* thanks to you nigga….
Can’t see sh!t. Nice camera angle asshole.
Thanks!
I own a Colt 1911 SS Government Model 45 ACP. The front site is a pinned sight and is loose in the hole. It also appears to be elevated and not flush with the barrel. I took it to a gunsmith who attempted to stake it again. He was able to tighten it but after one trip to the range it was loose again. My question is that is this loose fit normal and if not what is the possibility of removing the poorly designed staked blade front sit and replacing it with a dovetail site?

Let’s keep the camera a little farther away from the gun, and on the two guys.
Why is too much oil bad?
Ok. Nice vide but FIRST Thing: remove magazine then rack slide. Not the other way around. If for some reason you have a round in the mag, by racking first , you’ve just chambered a round. So, mag out, rack slide and engage slide stop. Continue stripping as instructed
the owner unfortunately put a mark on the frame when putting the slide stop pin back in place (5:13)
I really appreciate the store called *immaglockdealer on Wickr* they got me a pistol for self defense at cheaper price
Larry Vickers proved that you can’t over oil your 1911… A drop isn’t enough…
Thank you sir.
Thanks
Good video, as NSSF videos always are. However, a few close-ups would really help.
You make that look ridiculously easy! Nice demo 👍
Excellent video. Mr Schultz is a gentleman and a craftsman.
Thanks, it was helpful, but could you possibly reshoot this video with the camera looking over the gunsmith’s shoulder (where you are standing) so we can see every detail. Do we really need the shot from the side showing you two standing there? I would like to see every detail clearly shown. Poor photography angles prevent viewers from seeing everything. After playing and replaying over and over, I think I actually got it right though.
Too much oil is not a bad thing. The 1911 likes to run wet.
Thank you. Good Video-EXCEPT YOUR FRIGGIN HAND IS IN THE WAY AT THE VERY END!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Enjoyed. Colt Government series 70 is awesome
Ugh…Remove magazine FIRST, then check chamber.
Thanks for this precious learning from Brasil,here we dont have more the right to have guns,long live America
Thanks!
What a nice colt m4 I got from the best plug ever called *immaglockdealer on Wickr* he really help me in shipping it
Thank you, i just bought my first handgun at 21. A Colt 1911 Gustave Young Engraved series.
Sucks. It’d be great to show the challenging parts instead of just saying it and letting us beginners guess what you’re talking about.
Thank you, helped a lot.
Nice job!
You should have called the video "This Old Gun" is that a Remington Rand?
So im cleaning my 1911 and the cloth cleaning pads keep coming out dirty will it just always do that or is there a point in which they come out clean
Looked like a pretty sweet WW2 era 1911.
Does he shine shoes….
Very well put together instructional video and EZ to understand. Thank you!
Thanks you for the excellent video.
Everyone seems to do it a bit different and, of course, there’s a lube method daily carry and another for long-term storage nonetheless, unless I missed this in the video, don’t the locking lugs and grooves on both the slide and barrel get lubed? I was always taught to do this.
My dad has one, and he hasn’t shot it in 20 years. So, I am cleaning it before taking it to the range to try to out.
Nice thanks alot
New friend lodi,m8
