OK - I feel like an idiot even asking this, but I'm gonna do it anyway.
A friend who is headed..."out of town" just dropped of his stainless 1911 with me. At his instruction, I fully intend to shoot the heck out of it. However, his maintenance habits left something to be desired, and the thing is FILTHY.
I don't own any other stainless firearms. How do I clean the finish? Just my standard Hoppes #9 on a cloth and with a toothbrush?
I don't mind USING someone else's firearm, but I don't want to screw it up horribly. Do I need anything special?
