I don't do it unless it is bad bad. If you are having only minor issues a little oil or break free allowed to run into it will allow you to spin the cylinder and watch the gunk flow out of it, then wipe it off. At the point he was at however I agree you have to pull the cylinder and give it a good honest cleaning.

I only have one S&W DA revolver (M29), but I pull the cylinder on ALL my revolvers (Colts, mostly), when cleaning......use a pipe cleaner to get into all the little "nooks & crannies".
Adam, I saw your other post re: firearms cleaning/maintence. I think a LOT Of folks would benefit from being shown how this is done, instead of being told. I think that in this 'computer' driven age, places like Youtube might be the place to put something like this. I was shown how to clean a shotgun by my grandfather, but my dad wasn't into hunting/firearms, so if it wasn't for him sharing his wisdom, I probably wouldn't know how to do it. With so many people in thier 20s & 30s 'discovering' firearms for the first time (either for CCW or hunting), it doesn't surprise me that they don't have a mentor to show them how it's done, esp. with the amount of antigun activity we have seen in the past few decades. Your thoughts?
