Cleaning it today, only has 100 rounds through it. I used the brush it ships with, to clean the bore today. I didn't use any solvent, but I only iserted it once or twice.

However, I cleaned it from the muzzle inward to clean it. The user manual says this can damage the bore, as you are supposed to clean from the caliber. Any concerns?

you didn't hurt anything. but you can damage the crown of the barrel over time by cleaning it from the muzzle end

It's fucked. If you ship to me I will dispose of it properly.

oh, right, this isn't GD. You're fine bro. No damage done. But, if you're not right with it now, I can provide an FFL . . .

Plenty of Youtube videos showing how to properly clean and lube your gun. Why are you afraid of taking it apart to clean it ?

It's very easy. Good luck !!!

You didn't hurt it, but this is not the proper way to clean it.  The pistol is pretty easy to dissassemble, then you can pull the barrel out and clean from the breech end, which will protect your crown, which is the very end of the barrel (basically the last edge that the bullet will touch as it leaves the barrel).  Plus, by cleaning from the muzzle end, without dissassembling the pistol, you're pushing all that crud into the action of the gun.  That's a nice gun you got there (I just got one myself), so treat it right and it will last forever.

You didn't really clean it either if you didn't use any solvent.  Just pushed the loosest powder residue back into the action.  

Its fine, you didn't hurt it.  The rental SP01 we have gets a LOT of range time and looks like it has a carbon colony growing inside it.  It still works fine.  Guns can shoot reliably and accurately for a LONG time between cleanings, CZ's can anyway.  Keeping the rails greased and some oil on the barrel hood will go a long way as well, do this with a nice clean gun though, then shoot the crap out of it.

You have rendered it useless and unsafe

Go to Walmart and buy a basic handgun cleaning kit with solvent, oil, patches, loop and jag sized for .38/.357/9mm. READ your Owner's Manual from CZ, field strip your gun and join the phenomenon that is proper firearms maintenance.
