kinda like cleaning your black powder rifle in the bath tube, can't end well.
Just do it when you plan to give the tub a good scrub down anyway.
Although, I found that the "scrubbing bubbles" type cleaners do a very good job of getting rid of the residue without much effort. -

I wonder what that smelled like when the gun got hot? I’ll bet it would keep your sinuses clear.
Can you even buy camphor any more?

Until they're all cramed under the agitator! That's when the boss will find the ones you missed or drop on the floor and don't notice.
Put all the brass in some pillow cases. If you use the embroidered ones the threads on the inside help by adding an abrasive component to the 800 count cotton.

Or are you suggesting a separate laundry machine just for washing brass with a bunch of old rags thrown in for agitation purposes? GJ
Oh, I'm fair certain sure that running the brass through the regular laundry machines would be PLENTY agitating, even without rags.

Spray bleach on it, then use a foaming cleaner and scrub brush.

Santa Rosa Police and Sonoma County Sheriff's Dept. public information officers LOVE to call everything they can a "ghost gun" or "illegal assault rifle," even if the SN has been defaced or the "illegal" part of "assault rifle" is not changing out the flash hider for a muzzle break on an otherwise legal, CA compliant AR platform. But they almost never play up that the person is a felon who should not have even a piece of expended brass in his possession.

I think this is the chart that every shooting range 'expert' uses when they are 'helping' a new shooter on the station next to them.
(guy with new pistol): Man, these sights suck! I need to get them adjusted!
(me, looking at target): Looks more like your mechanics, mostly jerking or slapping the trigger, maybe a flinch in there, too.
(guy with new pistol): I don't flinch! And I don't slap the trigger!
(me) Here, let me reload your magazines and let me watch you shoot the next one. (slips a few random snap caps into each magazine).
(gwnp) OK. (hangs new target) BANG! (7 o'clock, 6 ring) BANG! (7 o'clock, 8 ring) CLICK! (pistol pointing at floor about half way to the target). "Oh!"

Brought up with guns. I own, shoot, and build guns.MonWhere can I buy a .50 cal sniper?
You can’t, for at least two reasons.
One, snipers aren’t for sale, ever since the Thirteenth Amendment. You can no longer buy people.
Second, .50 caliber = 1/2 inch. The minimum height requirement is 58 inches.
A half inch sniper wouldn’t be able to carry or operate your typical “sniper” rifle, since they can be as much as 58 inches long and weigh 30 pounds.
The closest thing would be Rent-A-Midget Sniper™. At Rent-A-Midget Sniper™, they rent out highly skilled and finely equipped midget snipers. Their Sniper / Spotter package comes with all you need for any sniping job. A+ BBB rating.

Interesting.
I agree with comments, but will you please identify the flags. I can't find my reference books and may have given them to my grandson.
Thank you.

I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more."

Desire Under the Elms.
"Ephraim Cabot is an old man of amazing vitality who loves his New England farm with a greedy passion. Hating him, and sharing his greed, are the sons of two wives Cabot has overworked into early graves. Most bitter is Eben, whose mother had owned most of the farm, and who feels who should be sole heir. When the old man brings home a new wife, Anna, she becomes a fierce contender to inherit the farm. Two of the sons leave when Eben gives them the fare in return for their shares of the farm. Meanwhile, Anna tries to cause some sparks by rubbing up against Eben."
