    This is an excellent video Ray! I was a unit armorer my first 3 yrs in the Infantry and I loved showing all of the guys in my unit how to maintain everything from the M2 heavy barrel machine gun to the M1911A1 pistol. The only time the fellas in my unit didn’t like me was when I inspected their weapons on return from the range or training exercises and sent them back to clean it better. It was so awesome to go out and have everyone shoot good and not have major issues with their weapon. If they did have malfunctions I usually had it remedied right away or fixed it when we got back in garrison. So I really liked your video and your explanation for the reasons of why it is important to do the things involved to maintain your weapon properly.

    It never hurts me to see another well-made firearm (AR, bolt action, etc,) cleaning video and especially from a man who uses one in competition. No matter how many times I may have seen someone else's video covering the same subject, your's ends up being the best and most enjoyable. Thanks Ray.

    I watched this video over a year when I bought my AR 15. Unfortunately, I suffered a shoulder injury and needed shoulder replacement. I finally got the opportunity to use the AR 15 yesterday. I remembered this video from last year and found it again. An extremely well done video that I followed to do my cleaning. It took me a few hours but well worth it as I learned more about the gun and a great way to clean it!

I have not been cleaning off the copper, but will incorporate it into my cleaning routine. I always walk away smarter after watching your videos.
