| How in the heck do I clean the inside of this bolt after getting the firing pin and spring out? I was trying to clean it by putting a little cloth sprayed with gun cleaner on it and that would be a pain in the rear to try to get out. Anyone have any advice on how to get it clean and/or have rigged some sort of tool to make cleaning it easier? |
| I just use a cleaning patch on a loop on a cleaning rod. I fold the cloth over the tip of the loop to get the forward most surface. A little brake cleaner sprayed in the bolt and allowed to run out firing pin hole followed by compressed air and the bolt is as clean as it can be. |

Ultrasonic.
I think at the heart, even the smaller, ceaper ones will work. When I bought a tumbler, I avoided Hornady and Friends products. They all just import stuff and the chinese parts burn out in no time. So I do recommend spending some extra to avoid the chinese junk. Save you having to pay shipping back to the seller, etc. Or buy form someone who backs their stuff 110%. Otherwise, I'd soak in kerosene or mineral spirits. If it was a really good gun, I'd pay a local, good smith to do it. ($20 maybe?) |

More than sonic but less than super sonic. 
In for recommendations too, I need a brass cleaner and from what i can tell they all get shit reviews. Quoted:

I run the big one from Harbor Freight, which is the same model most of these other companies are using, just slapping their stickers on the front. I've owned it now for 5 years, use it all the damn time, and has had no issues. |
