One good reason to clean you new firearm BEFORE you fire it.

<threadjack>ultrasonic is nice, and does a good job. you can accomplish the same thing with gun cleaner/oil (i use rem oil, its aerosol, cleaner/lube in one can, it works for me, flame on) and a toothbrush (do not use the same one you use to brush your teeth, itll taste terrible when you are done). open the manual, complete field strip, cleaning, lubrication and reassembly should all be in there. good luck, any questions, google them, someone has asked them before and they have been answered on this forum or another. has gotten me out of a few jams</threadjack>

Cool! thanks for the advice I lost my manual tho but i'll try to find it so I can do the cleaning properly. Still considering ultrasonic cleaning tho. lol. Anyway, I'll try to find old threads here to get more info on this.

Found the exact same thing in a 10/22 I bought from Four Guns about a month ago. Crazy

i saw a guy come out to the range with a mauser he had just purchased..
lucky for him.. he could not get the bolt to close on a round..
asked me for help and i looked down bore.. chamber & bore was packed with grease still..

Wow,luckily you saw that before you shot it. Nice pick for a 22 rifle, I've been shopping around for a 22 but unsure yet if I want a pistol or rifle. I hear the 10/22 is a great rifle to customize.

The owners manual should have some useful info about how to clean it.

Thanks man, misplaced it tho. better look for it. lol.
