- Clean Handgun Slip 2000
amzn.to/30rbXov
Cleaning my guns is like making my own old fashions, it's like artwork. I lay everything out and carefully measure everything and savor the moment. However, by the 2nd glass, I'm just pouring everything in the glass and by the 3rd glass, it’s just straight bourbon.
The first couple times I cleaned my guns, it was pretty fun. However, the more I shot and the more guns I bought, the more I found my self trying to clean my guns as quickly and efficiently as possible.
When I clean my guns, I’m not trying to win awards for the cleanest gun at the gun range. I clean my guns so that they run reliably and not so much that I can eat off of them. Therefore, I try not to over complicate the cleaning process.
Safety:
First I make sure there are no bullets in the gun and take any ammo or magazines and move them completely away from my work station.
When you fiddle with guns as much as I do, loading a magazine, and racking the slide is second nature and sometimes you don’t even realize that you did it.
So, just to be safe, just move the magazines and ammo away from your work area, so you don’t ever have to explain to that person you brought home from the bar why you have a bullet hole in your wall.
Disassemble The Gun:
Next, I do a basic disassembly of the gun. Every gun is different, but the components are generally the same. I take the slide off, remove the recoil spring, and then remove the barrel.
I usually clean the frame first.
I’ll use a brush and brush out the Frame of the gun. Then, I grab my favorite cleaner/Lube which is gun lube from slip2000. (amzn.to/30rbXov)
Some people use a separate cleaner and a separate lube. I only use slip 2000 gun lube because it does it all and does it really well.
I put a little on all the metal to metal contact points and use a brush to loosen any dirt or carbon.
From here, I’ll use a micro fiber towel and wipe it off.
Slip2000 gun lube leaves behind a film that will act as your lubricate. However, I still add a little drop of Lube after I wipe it off just for good measure.
Next, I take the barrel and a brush and brush the feed ramp.
I’ll then take a patch with gun lube on it or micro fiber towel with gun Lube on it and wipe it down removing all the carbon build up.
From there, I take a bore brush and run it through the barrel a few times to loosen up the carbon. Then I’ll take a small patch with some gun lube on it and run it through the barrel a couple times.
I’ll then put a light coating of Lube on the outside of the barrel and wipe it down.
After I'm done cleaning the barrel I move to the slide. I’ll take a brush and try to remove any loose debris. Then I’ll take my gun lube and put a small amount on all the metal to metal contact points. Then I’ll take my micro fiber towel and rub the slide down and wipe it off.
After that I put the gun back together and I'm done.
That’s it.
Like I said, I try not to over complicate my cleaning process.
If you really wanted to, you could do a complete take down of your handgun and clean every inch of it, which isn’t a bad idea to do from time to time if you have a-lot of rounds shot through your gun, otherwise, most handguns will run reliably as long as they’re decently clean and lubed.

Anyone else find cleaning their guns calming and therapeutic?

Cleaning guns and sharpening knives is great. There's no better feeling than seeing something you love in tip-top condition and working great.
100%
Yup. Love cleaning my guns.
I like cleaning my guns it is very calming, i have over 60 guns mostly historical, Since i have so many i have to clean one to two guns a week for basic maintenance, and when i go to the range i bring at least 10 guns to shoot, i enjoy cleaning my guns its very relaxing. When its not relaxing is when i am cleaning one of my rare guns and im to worried about breaking a part thats very hard to replace.
Everything but my ruger mkIII. I just spray it with break cleaner, run a boresnake down the barrel w/ some hoppes & then a squirt of 3 in 1 oil. I disassembled it once, never again!
He is absolutely right, a lot of CZcams videos out there are half an hour or more making things more complicated than they need to be. Colion went straight to the point and showed us how to clean your gun in less than 4 minutes.
I came here to say this. So tired of watching 30 minute videos, this video was perfect. Gonna check his channel for long rifle cleaning videos now 👀
$$$
How many people DON'T clean their guns because someone made it look far too complicated and expensive?
Or don't practice because "you need to clean your guns for 30 minutes with expensive methods every time you shoot them?"
Anyone else find cleaning their guns calming and therapeutic?
Honestly it’s almost as fun as the range time.
I find it messy and annoying.
Im OCD about cleaning my firearms. It helps that i enjoy it so much.
I enjoy taking good care of my investments, it's pleasing 😌
Cleaning in general calms my mind. Cleaning my firearms is icing on top.
Colion you’re the man, keep up the fight for the 2nd
I over clean, I like cleaning them and I'm retired......plenty of time to shoot, plenty of time to clean......when I want..........retirement is good
I also WAAAYYY OVER CLEAN, MY LIFE MIGHT DEPEND ON IT ?
I ENVY YOU!
Good for you! 🙏🏾
@@Prince-fn7ff GO CLEAN YOUR AIR SOFT STUFF, WHY REPLY WITH AN ANSWER LIKE THIS ? WHAT MAKES YOU ANGRY AS YOU SEEM TO BE ?
Mr Shifter I don’t wish to disagree with You. I’ve been retired since I broke my back half my life ago. Not enough money to dirty my guns like I’d like to. But don’t feel bad for me. I have wonderful family and friends that get me where I need to be. Full magazines my Friend.
If you own a stainless revolver you will clean it until it shines.
This... this is the only hate I have.
*GET OFF BURN MARKS! GET OFF!*
I thought the same when I had a stainless, but realized old school blued is worse..... rust forms fast 😵
That my problem😳
@@jessekaiman5182 Birchwood Casey sells an impregnated cloth in a bag, I think it’s called lead remover and polishing cloth. It’ll clean that crap off in no time. Easy.
@@IamTheGoatstroker does it actually? Thought that was all bull. I just put hopes 9 and let it sit a bit, then brush it. It seems to work well doing that.
While modern materials are forgiving of neglect, my good ARMY training tells me I can't go to bed without all my gear being recovered. Pour yourself a glass of brown water, turn up the lights and get busy! I try and think of it as cuddling after sex. You get intimately familiar, make sure everyone is happy and nothing got broken. Great end to a great day!
This is the exact type of information that a beginner needs and what I wish I had 20 years ago. Thank you!
Well, the beginner also needs to know how to take the gun apart. . .(that would be me! How does one know how to dismantle to clean properly?)
@@saltyolbroad2962hopefully you figured it out!
It’s so nice to know that other people clean just like I do.
I usually spray some solvent down the barrel then clean everything else, then by the time I get to the barrel it takes two passes to get the carbon and copper out.
Bore snake and toothbrush. Metal contact points get Mobile 1. Cleaning time is a good time to check pins and springs too.
Spot on. I used to be fussy about cleaning, but now I pretty much focus on keeping the machine reliable.
Been having uscca for 3 years and very satisfied with it I like the way you clean your gun thank you
Good, quick, to the point. Thanks Colion.
I've found myself cleaning my guns when I'm bored or just want to relax a little. It eats up plenty of time and I thoroughly enjoy trying to get every bit of grime off.
Come on over Mr. Wiggles! Lol
There's a reason you're the number 1 pro 2A personality on YT... it's your pragmatic and forward thinking approach to every aspect of this hobby. Thank You.
My GUY! All I can say is thanks, your legal background and knowledge have been an enlightening experience. Love your range tests, but thanks for tackling the new crazy issues going on.
I don't even own a gun but there's something satisfying about cleaning a gun.
@Turbotonio Good luck finding ammo...
@@twincitiesdashcam9119 goodluck finding a gun lol. Where i live there are barely any!
If you own one lol
You might want to rethink not owning a gun. You are already way behind if this is true.
@@anibalalvarado3rd everything is weird right now. All glocks at the gunshop are only $400 lately. Theyre usually $500+
0:33 this is a great example why I follow Colion, he doesn't skip the important details. I have the same habit. Great content man!
Colion....You are so right about removing magazines and ammunition. It’s second nature to rack the slide and pull the trigger! Thanks for the video!
I spy with my little eye a Rifle Dynamics AK that never got a follow-up video.
Thank you for your content it’s so great reliable and relevant.
Don't disagree with Colion's advice, but just keep in mind that each gun model has its own personality, and some ammo varieties generate more fouling than others. One gun might be flawless through 2000 rounds while another can't make it to 500 without some glitches coming into play.
So how often should a gun be cleaned? After every shoot or a certain number of rounds?
@@ZabDevin Zab, there are many reasons that nobody can answer your question. Depends on how much you shot it, cleanliness of your ammo, weather conditions (wet, dusty?) and more. If I've only done light shooting I typically wipe the exterior down with a silicone cloth and run a bore snake thru the barrel a couple of times and call it good. If I get caught out in the rain or do heavy shooting, in a really dusty environment etc. I'll generally strip it down for a thorough cleaning and lubrication. Black powder guns get a thorough cleaning after each outing.
@@ZabDevin in my case I carry in a pocket holster or IWB depending on the gun, a good pocket holster protects the gun pretty well but every few days I look for crud forming in the nooks and crannies. A simple Q-tip will be sufficient to dig out the deposits every few days, same for the barrel. I do a full breakdown once every 2 months on average. I clean out the old lubricant, I clean the junk that might have missed the occasional sweep, and I wipe it all down. After that I relube it then put it back together and wipe the excess oil off. I figure if I need it to work in a bad situation I had better take care of it. I breakdown my 2 carry guns once every 2 months in a rotating schedule. This way if a gun breaks I’ve still got a capable carry gun. But that’s my 2 cents YMMV
I have been looking for a video like this for a while thank you!
As a new gun owner thank you for your videos! Very helpful!
I don’t normally comment on many videos. but this was actually a really sweet video. It just shows how simple it is to clean a handgun. I love all your videos and give them all a thumbs up. I love how you’re dead on with everything. Thanks for fighting for my Second Amendment.
One step I take at the end of the cleaning/oiling is using a can of compressed air to "blow dry" the firearm. This leaves a microscopic layer of lube but prevents an excess of being left in a small crack or crane.
This video was a good idea especially with new gun owners to help show some basic firearm care for those who are just getting into owning firearms
This is the best of all worlds: less than 5 minute video, quick technique that all of us can learn, and lastly no mass media telling me my views are stupid.
Yo Colin ,
Show us how you clean a rifle and grease it
Let's be specific. I wanna see an AK
brakeclean, wd40 lol
I was think the same. I need to learn to clean my 870 as well
@@Lowtan I clean my Ak every 2k rounds lol.
Beautiful poly build Colion. Great vid, I use a boresnake and I'm starting to think it takes too much time after watching that!
I've been using Slip2000 Extreme Weapons Lube for years and it is by far my favorite cleaner/lubricant for any weapon. Great products and great video!
This was the most straightforward video on cleaning guns. It helps a nub like me. Thank you.
Dude I was literally in the middle of a gun cleaning video till this popped up.
I was cleaning a rifle...
They watching👓
I’ll clean up mine tomorrow while I have the time 🇺🇸
Lol Noir is snatching views.
Whenever the weather is nasty outside and too nasty to go shoot, I get bored and I'll get my guns out and clean them just to give me something to do because it's what I love to do.
This is the way.
Exactly how I clean mine. I even run oil on the outside of the slide and then dry it clean. Leaves a nice finish on the gun, while leaving it not slippery.
great advice Colion! I clean guns the same way and have been doing so for over 35 years. and USCCA best CCW insurance !
One thing that you could have mentioned is that when you clean the barrel you should only run the brush from the rear of the barrel to the front (the breech to the crown)
No, it does not matter as long as you don't change directions while the brush is in the barrel. A copper brush will not harm steel or chrome lining unless you bind the brush up inside the barrel. I run it in and out about 20 times real fast.
@@67_PowerStroke The issue is potentially dinging the crown with the cleaning rod, not the direction of the brush movement. Yes, the soft brush will not hurt the steel barrel.
Exactly. Plus, after running Any lube or oils down your barrel, unless you’re going to store your piece for a long amount of time, to run a dry patch down your barrel to remove any excess lubricant, as this could create over- pressurization during the first round fired, destroying the barrel, making for a very bad day. Never leave excess oils in any barrel if not storing the firearm. I’ve seen it happen at the range with a Glock 22. A Murphy Moment😖
@@67_PowerStroke that last part.
Can we have a vid for how to clean a AR and lube it back up? I just got an F&N and I wanna see it done the right way
Have a look at these. I used them as a refresher because I haven't handled that type of firearm platform since I was in the military in the 80's.

Check out cherry balmz black rifle lube too
Honestly, the AR-15 just shits where it eats anyways. It's a modern, smokeless powder firearm. That means that you really don't have to clean them but *maybe* every thousand rounds? Even then, I'd bet it keeps going well beyond that round count.
Buy yourself a bolt scraper tool, an AR chamber brush, and chamber mops, as well as a nice cleaning rod like a Dewey, along with a .22 caliber bore brush, and brass jag. Disassemble, use a rag to wipe off all loose carbon with a bit of cleaner, apply your favorite bore solvent to the chamber brush & bore brush. Scrub both. About 5 or so passes on the bore usually does the trick in my experience. Run the chamber mop up in there, and clean the chamber/barrel extension area. Cut an old cloth T-shirt into small squares to act as a patch to apply to the brass jag, and push the patches from the chamber to the muzzle, removing each patch as it exits the bore on the muzzle end. Do not go the other direction. And take extra special care when re-entering the brass through the muzzle. You don't want to nick your crown. It's good practice to be careful when pulling the rod back through during that step. Repeat process until patches come out as clean as you like. Run a bit of your favorite lubricant onto a final patch, and send it through to coat the bore in a light oil.
Add a little oil to the hammer face, the bolt carrier, the body of the bolt (I recommend never oiling a firing pin of any firearm), [if you want] a drop of oil on the gas rings...Maybe a bit on the cam pin... That's kind of all there is to it. The first mag you run through the thing will quickly make it appear as if though no cleaning had occurred. So, clean to your heart's content if you want. Personally, I clean mine very sparingly. It just doesn't *need it* that often. But, it is good to learn.
@@rodgersmith1573
I agree except for the Bolt Carrier Group (BCG). I totally disassemble my BCG and thoroughly clean it before lubing it and reassembly as it is the most prone to malfunction when not properly cleaned. It takes only about 10-15 minutes to disassemble, clean, and reassemble.
edit: Please follow the links that I posted in this discussion thread. It will show you where the lube points are and how much you should lube it.

Thanks man you always got it going on your common sense approach is priceless 🙂
Love shooting, reloading, and cleaning my firearms!
Can of compressed air works wonders on clearing out solvent of small crevices.
Guns and Garage Gear Every garage and gun room should have a air compressor, it make life much easier.
I just want one of those little needle points for putting on the oil
Amazon sells the empty ones that you can fill with whatever you want. I just use a syringe, I would always get them free from work.
Thx I'll have to check those out
Incredible how easy it is to distinguish those who've operated tools and equipment with their hands for years, as opposed to those who do not do so regularly. I can only use my experience of the simplicity in handling and maintaining any firearm as "second nature" whatever that excuse means.
Love your videos. You are a wealth of knowledge, especially for a relatively new shooter such as myself.. Thank you sir. Peace.
1:25 I have a beef with microfiber. I've cleaned windows with them several times and take note that they leave a significant number of "micro fibers" behind. I believe it's possible that the fibers could potentially decrease the tolerances between the metal pieces to such an extent that the operation of the hardware could be impacted. This could lead to a jam or misfire. I think lint-free cotton or similar products are the best to wipe down a weapon with.
This means the microfiber is damaged. Typically, from heat in the dryer. Can never go wrong with blue shop towels as a one time use "micro fiber"
Even the quality ones do that with proper care, it's a shame. I just use some lint free paper towels I bought. A bit pricey but no issues and the pack will last me a whole year probably
I clean mine after shooting about 10 weekends or so. SD9VE runs great for me. Nice video man.
@E S if I remember correctly they paid a settlement and changed the trigger design.
@E S Not everyone has to buy Glock because you do.
@E S Ive heard people call the mr918 and the mr920 glock "clones" yet in reality there are similarities but the differences out way them.
I clean my guns with my 5 year old son and 3 year old daughter they actually love doing it I love the bond we build doing it and love the fact that the curiosities of guns have been killed by doing this with them.
Thanks!!! This will be sent to all my new gun owner friends!
I didn’t know there was any other way. I mean, I’ve disassembled guns completely that have lots of rounds on them, but that’s once in 10 years I’ve been carrying. Great video man. I was looking for something even quicker than this.
The words lube and dirty come to mind, oh yeah!
Yeah whats up with that "Slip 2000?" Didn't I see that as a condom brand at a 7-11? Lol.
I do enjoy cleaning my gear. Thank you for all your shared information
Awesome video and I’m glad to see a simpler method.
Who else is about to go out now and buy that exact gun lube so you don’t have to use a separate cleaner/lubricant😂
NOT ME.
Ballistol does it all, too. And it comes in a big ol' can without a dainty little tip like the stuff in this commercial. That tip looks like it would be easy to break.
bunky knudson I’ll check it out
Marketing man
Rem oil works great too
👍👍👍
Great video especially for us newbies! Thank you.
Appreciate you bruv! Be blessed and keep progressing positively!
*That barrel is badass*
You can easily make one as his, tool's required. BALL PEEN HAMMER & GOLD PAINT, YOUR APPEARANCE MAY VARY ?
You should use a solvent for cleaning and a lubricant for lubricating. Lubricant is not designed to break down lead, carbon, and fouling. It's not much more effort to use the correct items.
I find there is NOT A ALL IN ONE EITHER, SOLVENT & LUBE FOR ME ALSO.
Alcohol works to clean then get a lubricant
Very nice, i am one of those that over complicate my cleaning, but you sir are right, i will be trying your method out today. Just need to find some Slip 2000 now. Thanks man.
Finally- a cleaning viedo that has good lighting for a clear picture that docent disappear in the black back ground...Good job
The fastest method to cleaning guns I learned from the forums:
Step one: Buy a Glock
Step two: Shoot
Step three: ???
Guilty as charged :)
Rem Oil Wipes make it so easy for me
Great video. Nice to see others putting it out there that a white glove inspection isn't needed for a handgun to run.
Excellent advice. Guns are meant to be used and they can run somewhat dirty. While there is a Zen to sitting alone, listening to your favorite tunes, and cleaning you tools after a good day at the range; they don't need to be spotless. The next time they go bang, they're dirty. Only time I dread cleaning is when I break out the old Mosin and used corrosive ammo. That's gotta be done soon after the range or the rust sets in. Other than that, yup, it's relaxing and very therapeutic. Thanks for you channel.
I thought you said "simple way to clean your guns"? I do way less than that, now I feel lazy lol
M22W64 You should see mine I haven’t cleaned it in like 2000 to 3000 rounds. I just oil it when dry and keep running it.
@Deimos Cain "what the fuck did you do to my gun?!" Haha that's Fucking funny!

"Kinda more expensive" lol
I'm glad to see you're using Slip 2000 as a dedicated CLP product. I use their EWL oil and grease and find that I don't have to clean as much with them.
Good information. Bought my first gun yesterday, so now i know how to clean it
I hear if you are this early Colion gives a like and a weapon tip
Who?
I clean mine with liberal tears. Pew Pew Pew
There's an endless supply for some reason.
I hope there’s a lot more on November 4th.
But that'll cause it to rust
I have used pretty much the same method for about 30 years, only exception being I also use a shaving brush with my fav gun oil soaked into the brush and brush every surface, leave it for a few and then wipe clean.
Thanks for simplifying it and for the content.

Rem-Oil Wipes, Bore Snake, Mobil-1 Synthetic 5W-30. Rem-Oil wipe everything down, use chopstick or stick to push Rem-Oil wipe down barrel, then run Bore Snake through a couple of times, then lube contact points with Mobil-1.
