Hahaha. That why I take the easy way out and let it soak in the mineral spirits.
Looks nice and clean
That firing pin got that rattle?

The biggest suprise is how the wood looks after

[Enfield47]

Looks like it cleaned up nicely. Was you barrel packed with cosmo too?

[DirtyRussianAmmo]

Well done, looks like it got the full white-glove treatment.

The last one I cleaned the barrel and the gas system were both packed with cosmo. Cleaning that gas system was a PITA.

Looks great! Amazing what can be hiding under that goop.

[McNally M.]

Great looking SKS! Time to start plinking away.

Seriously. You shouldn't be allowed to own one unless you've gone through this.
