Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Is that Russian Tooling at it's very best? Looks to be extremely light duty. My Russian shotgun will hold up a T-35 Tank and still function. That looks like something that may have come from the satellites back in the day.

Doesn't mean it's not Russian though, the bulk of them aren't marked either. Could be Polish, Hungarian, Chinese. No idea where it actually came from but I believe it was the personal screwdriver of Chairman Mao. I think he used it as a bookmark for his little Red Book.

Chickasaw Bill SASS #70001 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 CM like UB I use Hoppies and break free , But first I pour HOT water down the BBL . I ose a 2qt funnel with a peice tubing to flush out the bbl , Probley does not need to be done , that is the way I was taught by my grandfather , many years ago . Lots of nasty stuff in primers back then . BTW the notch in the tool is for checking FP protusion CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know even though I was attempting humor above I wonder the same thing I think in the future I will use it outside and with rubber gloves on.... I know I have never seen a HazMat sheet on the stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that and hot soapy water would be just the ticket if you got corrosive primers or powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was designed as a solvent and, believe it or not, a wound cleaner. It does work well at removing corrosives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
