Buckshot Bob Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 If you go on the CMP forums guys talk about putting their Garand stocks in the dishwasher for a couple of cycles to clean them up before refinishing. I’m guessing they don’t tell their wives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafe Conager SASS #56958 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Wife got really mad when she found out that I washed my blackpowder pistols in the dishwasher. Needless to say I don't do that anymore. Rafe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 That idea is just a little worse than drying brass or powder coating bullets in the oven on the wife's cookie sheets. Either one would get me killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trigger Mike Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 If you took the grips off and cleaned black powder pistols in the dishwasher wouldn't you need to put them in the oven at around 200 degrees afterwards to drive out any moisture? Yes several garand collectors put their stocks in the dishwasher, but I always put mine in the hot sun to get the cosmoline out and lots of paper towels.

Warden Callaway Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 My dishwasher is an antique model with gray hair. I still wash them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Injun Ryder, SASS #36201L Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 I couldn't get the door to my dishwasher closed with a holster hanging over the front of the top rack. I had to place it in the bottom rack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trigger Mike Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 It's too hard trying to find a new wife, best keep what you have, just give her a credit card to go shopping with and finish before she gets home then fill it with dishes to play it off. Then again, if you have to hide things, you really are not in charge like you are supposed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often tease my wife that I’m going to put my dirty socks and shorts in the dishwasher. Then tie them to the car and drive around the neighborhood to dry them!
