I like to clean guns...

In my 20's I was the guy that tore down the guns and cleaned them after every use. I actually ran a brush through them, even the shotguns. Then, in my 30's I found a cotton cleaning rod and started using that instead of a brush every time and I would just oil down the exterior. I would use a brush on my guns once a year in the spring. Now, at age 40 with a wife, 2 kids, a dog, grass to mow, a house to fix, etc., cleaning guns is the furthest thing from my mind. Yeah, I oiled my SBE down on Saturday after hunting, but that is because we were hunting in the rain. Can't remember the last time I cleaned my rifles, much less the last time I fired any of them.

Good news is that we moved to a place that is less than 20 minutes from a gun club with trap, skeet, and rifle ranges out to 200 yards. I cannot wait until I can start using it and get all my reloading stuff set up here.
