I've owned suppressors for years. Just recently saw some info about removing cans before rifle storage to prevent barrel corrosion. Is this common knowledge? If so, I'm guilty of ignorance here.
Man I dunno, but I’m not any kind of scientist... At any rate I usually let my rifle/cans cool for about 15-20 with the action open. I do take it off before it goes in the safe because I’m an idiot and didn’t get the bigger safe.
I was under the impression that rifle cans operate at high enough pressure to “self clean” (probably a bad term) but they literally shoot all their fouling out for the most part. Now I am the owner of a 45tirant can that is super stuck together, it lives it’s whole life on a 4.6” barreled 9mm ar now that what your saying might be true for a pistol can but I would t worry about it on a rifle can. Also, anyone know a truck that’s not kroil to get a nasty can’s baffles out?
That’s a cool tool, I don’t thing my Surefire breaks down like that to remove the baffles. Sure would make cleaning easier.A baffle jacking tool, like this.
That’s a cool tool, but my tirant won’t fit it.A baffle jacking tool, like this.
