Anyone knows of a reliable gun smith or armorer that can swap a barrel on a S&W 686+ revolver? If you used them even better. Any idea on the cost to do the work? Obviously someone local in NJ as the first choice. Thanks for any leads.

I like cleaning my AR. I can get just about place I need to. One area I'm having trouble with is one end of the bolt carrier. Not the end where you use the Otis cleaning tool, but the other side. If I look into there I see some build up carbon that I just can't get to. A wire brush won't fit and it is a tight fit. What I need is some kind of brush with the bristles on the end of the brush itself to stick down this carrier and just start twisting the brush to clean as much the carbon as it can. Is there anything like that out there at all? Preferably brass, don't want to scratch anything up. Not sure if that area was overlooked by the cleaning companies or what, but it does leave carbon build up on every range day. The picture in this post is the area I can clean with the Otis tool. It is the other side that I can't get into. Went to Lowes, Home Depot, trying to think outside the box to even make a tool. Any ideas or is anyone as OCD as this?

I'm asking this on behalf of my husband, who recently purchased his first firearm.
He cleaned it following the manual along with a YouTube video. Both said to put a single drop of oil at 7 points. He used the bottle of Hoppe's 9 Lubricating Oil that came with his kit (this one: http://www.hoppes.com/cleaning-kits/more/rifle-kit-with-aluminum-rod ) to do that. The first time, which was after he bought it home from the shop, he realized he used too-large drops and wasn't surprised when he saw some leakage. When he cleaned the firearm after his trip to the range, he focused on using smaller drops, but there was still leakage.
Both times he noticed oil on the side of the frame that faced down in the case during storage, and on the ejection port. Handling it and working the slide a few times after the second cleaning, he also noticed some oil near the takedown lever (which is on the up side during storage).
Should he be cleaning/oiling less frequently, or should he be using a different oil (or at least a different application method for the oil)? Or is this normal?

Up for sale a Nikon Monarch 1.5-4.5X20 Riflescope. Scope formerly sat on top of my old Mini 14, so it is used. It also has some aftermarket lens covers on them (Buffalo Creek I believe). I'm asking $100 for the scope. Willing to drive within an hour of Woodbridge or meet half way. Buyer pays any shipping costs. First to post "I'll take it" wins the scope.

In 50 years of living in NJ I've never experienced any attempt to inspect the interior of the home, and only one definite inspection of the exterior for an announced reassessment of all properties and that was a drive by. About 9 years of that was living in an apartment, but still, uncommon. Every place I lived had either a finished attic, basement, or both. But they were also included in the habitable square footage on the taxes when we got there.

27.00 and change in tolls to drive down the shore from Rutherford, 47.00 in tolls to go out to Long island to visit dying relatives. Now I read they are going to raise the fees in the DMV. Murphy lied just to get elected when he said that seniors will get a significant tax break with his StayNJ" program to stop us from leaving. Keep voting for democrats...this is what you get. Tax and spend is all they know. Never cut anything. This state sucks.

I get the added benefit that since I have a TSP rather than a true 401(k) they tax my retirement too. Yaaaay!
