No Honey-Do

[Long Johns Wolf]

but gun cleaning is not my favorite chore. That was my yesterdays' cleaning job but should have done that weeks ago...
How soon after a shooting session are you cowgirls and cowboys cleaning your guns, assuming smokeless loads? Same day, a week later, a month later?

Bootsie, 

I may be the odd one out here, but I love cleaning my guns after a shoot.  There is nothing like the smell of Hoppes # 9 combined with gun oil to sooth the savage beast  ( no worries, I have a window open when using the Hoppes)   I usually, but not always clean them the same day I shoot.  I do shoot smokeless so I think you are ok if you wait a bit longer.  I love it after the guns are cleaned up and I line them up to admire the beauty.   There is also nothing quite as satisfying as shining that bore light down the barrel and seeing the grooves and shining metal.      Oh joy.....lifes simple pleasures.   Safe shooting.  Deadeye.

Usually the same day, but have been known to go a day or two after. Have a lot of acid in my system and tend to rust them quickly if not cleaned shortly after using.......Buck

I try to clean our guns within a year of when we shoot them...

I usually clean my guns the same day I shoot them, but I have been known to procrastanate as long as a week before doing it. Of course that refers to smokeless powder only. When I shoot "the Holy Black " cleaning is done the same day religiosity.

Barring exhaustion or screaming kids, I generally clean my guns after supper on the day I shoot them.  I'm one of those people who love ANY excuse to handle my guns...  so I get a kick out of the break-down/cleaning process.

What a great topic!

Whenever "honeydo" decides to "do them".
