Can I conduct the initial cleaning without taking the grips off? Here's what I envision as my 'process':ġ. I'd also like to use the cleaning products I currently have on hand (excluding the recently purchased mineral spirits). I've already spent enough money to cause my wife's eye to twitch and don't want to go purchase a set of gunsmithing screw drivers to take these apart (per the CAS primer instructions). I was told the carb cleaner may be too tough on the bluing and to forgo that option.sounds good to me! This was after purchasing a can of carburetor cleaner per one of the CAS primers. Upon recommendation of another wire member, I have purchased mineral spirits for the initial cleaning. Good afternoon gents! I finally have my two new Pietta 1858 Remington New Army revolvers in hand.
