Hey guy's I went shooting last week, put about 60 rounds through the M44, brought it home and started cleaning it, I put a big shot of the foaming solvent down the barrel, put 10 or so patches down, and the 10th patch was coming out just as dirty as the first. Repeated and got the same result. A gunsmith recommended plugging the barrel, then putting hot water mixed with a little dawn down the barrel and letting it sit for about 30 minutes before running patches down.
I did that and it helped quite a bit, but it's still fairly dirty. So another person recommended doing a 50/50 mix of white vinegar and Hydrogen Peroxide, plugging the barrel pouring it in, and letting it sit overnight. I was just wondering if anyone on here has done that before? I wasn't sure if you're supposed to mix the two of those, so I just wanted to ask before I went ahead and tried..
