Best cleaning and lubrication for weapons using corrosive ammo?
I've an AK74 with which I use surplus russian ammo which has corossive primers.
Right now I pour a tea-kettle full of boiling water through the receiver/barrel/gas tube, then clean with Hoppes, and lube with a few drops of Dexron VI.
This seems to work - no visible rust.
Are there any other better/different/easier ways of cleaning corossive residue?
