    Snot me. Sorry. I was hopeful - then remembered our weekend plans involving a trip to West Lafayette.

    Should be a great day for this kind of thing, though!

    My guns are clean, but Allen, do you have a mill? My Chilean Mauser has a buggered up trigger/mag assembly screw that I can't get out. I think the head of the screw would need to be milled off. At least I think it's the Chilean... could be the Brazilian. :):

    Allen, what's the count at? If it is just a couple of us, I don't want to take up your time. I'm still game with about 3-4 pistols and a couple long guns. But I understand if you don't want to do it this weekend.

    I'm very likely. Would you mind posting the exact address? For us lazy GPS users. I have a few that need cleaned.
    Thanks

    excellent.

    The address is 292 S. County Road 800 E. 46123
    But even GPS will make you work for it, it will get you close but take you somewhere else :) I am behind Lowe's in Avon down by the railroad tracks. There is Ralph's muffler and Dan Jones Automotive next door to me

    Not a bad idea. I can pick up some bagels and coffee. Not much of a donut person. I had a bad experience as a child :)

    I don't think I can make this today, but I love the idea for sure. Tavi will likely need a decent scrubbing in the next couple've months.

    I could surely use some wisdom from my firearms-elders on cleaning and such. YouTube is great and all, but sometimes you really need a mentor with ya to point out things they see.
