Hi
This is my first post, so Hello Y'all. I have a couple of questions and observations.
I just received a used 995 and decided to give it a thorough clean. First, I wish the manual warned you about the firing pin and the bolt retainer leaping out when taking the gun apart.
The next thing is that I cannot get the bolt over the front sight. Is that correct?
Anyway, I decided to clean the barrel using the same foaming bore cleaner that I use on my milsurps. I am still seeing blue patches after three treatments. Has anyone else seen this level of fouling in a Hi- Point?
Lastly, is there a particular way to clean the firing pin channel. I think mine is a little sticky as the noise when I dry fire is not very crisp. Could it be I need a new spring?
Cheers
Steve
