Guys,
I've been debating on polishing my Colt M4's feed ramps. I'm sure it's been discussed somewhere on the web before, so I was just thinking about researching to find out what's the BEST method for doing the polishing.
Anyhow, in the meantime, I would like to know HOW I can get my M4 feedramps back to nice and SHINY CLEAN and NEW looking again?
After a few hundred shots, I went to clean my new M4 for the first time, and I have noticed that no matter which solvent I used, the feedramps are still stained up a good bit (black in color) , and wil not really get totally clean and shiny again.
Let me say that they are just stained and not built up with carbon or anything like that. I am quite particular about keeping a weapon clean, and every time I clean the gun, I make sure to take a Hoppes nylon toothrush and scrub the feedramps quite vigorously.
SO, with that all said, I'm wondering HOW I can get my feedramps CLEAN again, like they were when new????
While we are talking cleaning, I would also like to know if there is any documentation or literature I can obtain, that specifically covers cleaning an AR15/M4 in DETAIL????
Not that I MUST have it to be able to competently clean my weapon, but I honestly would just like to know how the pros do it, and compare my method(s) to theirs. As of now, I really haven't developed a method for cleaning the trigger area, which is of concern. (realizing of course, that the trigger area does not get that dirty, but I'm sure it needs attention at one point or another).
Thanks for any help you guys can share...
