These cleaning/teardown videos are fantastic - I'd love to see more of them, especially one for standard double-action, swing-out-cylinder revolvers.
Thanks FC! There are more coming. It's basic stuff but hopefully we'll have some tips and tricks to help.
I have a Beretta Stampede (Uberti) .45 Colt. Purchased it in 2009 but unfortunately was discontinued. You did a great job in this video. I would like to add a couple of things that can assist in cleaning the weapon. First i shoot only copper jacketed ammo. The copper can be removed more easily by the Hoppes No. 9 Solvent, where i have never found a cleaning gun solvent that will break down lead fouling. When the solvent reacts with copper, the cleaning patch will have green residue, after setting for a while. Second, when cleaning ONLY the cylinder bores, i attach a brass (never steel) bore/cylinder brush to my hand drill. I soak the cylinder bores in solvent, and in VERY LOW rpms scrub the bores, moving the brush forward and rearward, keeping the bores wet. Being brass is a softer metal than steel the bores shouldn't be affected. But never use the drill cleaning method in the barrel. With it having lands and grooves, all types of scrubbing should be performed, in conjunction with them.
Just recently made my first AR 15 since I was discharged from the Army. While I was with 101st, I was issued a 240B but I always loved the M16A2 we had in Basic. I built an M16A4 clone to allow the use of optics but needed a cleaning kit. My VA Disabled status lets me get onto a nearby Marine base so I picked up a Otis cleaning kit for AR's there. It is so much better than the old school cleaning kits I used in the Army and it makes a world of difference
Muy bueno tu vídeo saludos desde Argentina
Muchas gracias Jorge!
I'm writing a western and i wanted a character to disassemble, clean, and reassemble a Colt single action. This is enormously helpful.
Don thanks for what you do here. I’ve learned so much! I had the chance to meet you at the NRA event in Indianapolis and you were very encouraging for someone like me that’s relatively new to learning about guns. Thanks again for all your help and education.
Thanks Steve! I appreciate the kind words and great meeting you in Indy!
You should try some balistol gun oil i promise you would like it , it works like a clp it breaks down the carbon so good @sootch00
This is a very informative video and wonderful cleaning tips. Thanks a lot.
Thanks Audie!
I own a Pietta 1873 and your video was very helpful as this is the 1st time for me to clean it. Thank you for the details!
We used to use an old school shaving brush to put a light coat of oil on all the metal parts of the weapons in the army. Still works well to oil my guns after 44 years.
Where do you find those kinds of brushes anymore?
I always learn something from your videos. Your bloopers are always funny too.
Thanks Keith!
Really like these cleaning videos, Learned alot. You should really do more of them.
Thanks CJ! More on the way.
Very helpful thank you sir.
You did the best job of making it clear what you are doing and well lit. Now how about a complete tear down on the blackhawk and peacemaker? 😊😇
We'll see what we can do. Thanks Mk
Great video Pisano!!
Great informative video thanks 😊
Wow. I can't remember the last time YT recommended me a Sootch, Guns'n'Biceps, MrHickock, etc, video. Something must be happening. And was a nice one to watch! Oh, and for whatever it's worth, each time I bought a revolver (this means a brand new one, albeit I'd have done it on a used one as well), I also opened the action box, I'm sorry for missing the right terms, it's been a while, my apologies, I'm talking about the lid on the side, usually right side, and cleaned the factory grease and crap in there as well, in one case "magically" turning a brand new revolver from "what's up?" and having me worried, to fully functional after being cleaned. Super easy this bit, with cottonswabs and rubbing alcohol. Then remember to re-lub those bits!! Cheers!
Got to have some range fun today with a ruger 45 colt awesome 👌🏻 👏
Great video - Thanks!
Yep, I had to splurge a while back and get me an expensive genuine Colt SAA in 45LC. Beautiful gun! Thanks for the tips!
Ah! That's on my bucket list! Thanks Michael
Thanks Sootch
To clean the forcing cone I use a solvent wetted bent barrel brush inserted into the forcing cone and forcibly wiggle it around scrubbing out the forcing cone. Then I clean the barrel.
Thanks for the detailed info.
Thanks for watching!
Can you do one on black powder revolver. thanks
Excellent video tutorial, makes me want to give my single actions a little attention.
Pay extra attention to the forcing cone (back end of barrel) that's where the heaviest build up acures . Ps That Taylor is the finest Colt replica . SO BEAUTIFUL 🤠
Greetings from the PPRC great video, think I will clean my single six 22 today.🇺🇸
Thanks Steve!

Just picked up a Ruger Wrangler yesterday, it's like you knew!
Those are great guns! Thanks Daniel

Thanks Traveler! It's very therapeutic 👍
Great job cleaning, video was excellent 👍😎. I found a Taylor 45 the other day and just can't get it out of my head , most likely it's coming home 🇺🇸💪🙏
Thanks Wayne! Taylor is top notch quality and you'll love it.

Happy late labour day, Grandpa Sootch.
Thanks Alfred! 😄
I sweat Hoppe's #9 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Long Live the Republic Soocth00
Thanks Jerry! Nothing like the smell of it to wake me up in the morning! lol!
I clicked the video just to watch some good single action porn. I never dreamed that I would learn anything, but that tied rag thing is a great idea! I am always on guard to protect my Standard Manufacturing Single Action.
Thanks Brian! I always cringed when the rod would hit the back of the receiver.
👍😎🍺🍩
Samuel Colt died in 1862, 11 years before the M1873 was introduced.
Yeah, I was informed after I uploaded the video.
@@sootch00 otherwise, excellent video. Thanks for posting. Just got myself a Pietta 1873 clone a year ago.
Single action revolver are cool guns, but they are obsolete right now, i would never use this kind of gun for personal or home defense.
General Patton did! 😊
@@jemilo65 as i know General Patton never entered in combat during the war, but i still has much respect for this man.
Obsolete? They shoot bullets at whatever you point them at and do it just as good as ever. I don't think anyone is arguing they are great carry pieces. You can have modern adlnd classic guns, you don't need to pick a side, enjoy all the styles.
