SUMMARY:clean an AR-15
DESCRIPTION:Hoping to pass down your AR-15 to the grandkids someday? Knowing how to clean an AR-15 and keeping it properly cleaned and lubricated should be a top priority. However detailed disassembly and maintenance straight out of a manual can be daunting. \nCleaning an AR-15 platform rifle involves a field strip\, removing carbon buildup from the bolt carrier group (BCG) and chamber\, cleaning the bore\, and applying proper lubrication to key friction points. A well-maintained rifle prevents malfunctions\, particularly because the direct gas system blows carbon back into the action.  \nCome join us for the clean an AR class

SUMMARY:clean an AR-15
DESCRIPTION:Hoping to pass down your AR-15 to the grandkids someday? Knowing how to clean an AR-15 and keeping it properly cleaned and lubricated should be a top priority. However detailed disassembly and maintenance straight out of a manual can be daunting. \nCleaning an AR-15 platform rifle involves a field strip\, removing carbon buildup from the bolt carrier group (BCG) and chamber\, cleaning the bore\, and applying proper lubrication to key friction points. A well-maintained rifle prevents malfunctions\, particularly because the direct gas system blows carbon back into the action.  \nCome join us for the clean an AR class
