IT BEGINS!

Yes it is the start of my bi-annual gun cleaning days! Twice a year I empty out my safe and everything is cleaned and oiled. This event usually takes a few days, (typically) one day each for revolvers, semi auto pistols and long guns. It will probably take the rest of the week to complete the task. A large portion of my gun collection is made up of finely blued handguns and they require extra diligence to keep them in top condition. I don't mind too much, it's a small price to pay to have so many beautiful and valuable guns.

This year, while I have everything out, I will probably re-evaluate my collection. There are some guns that might have to go...
