Cleaning Different Guns

[Schmidty]

The Winchester 62a I referenced as one of the 3 guns I would want when SHTF; it was used in Frosty Morn Meat Packing for 40+ years. In their heyday they processed 100+ steers and 300+ hogs a day, 6 days a week. It was used, best I'm told, to put every one of these animals down. I'm told the only cleaning it ever got was a good dose of 3in1 oil on an as need basis.

I'd wager it is still about as accurate an any NIB 22.

Side note; The old meat packing plant is now a tomato processing plant. About once a year they have a drain stop up that has to be cleaned out and they are still getting old spent 22 short and LR spent casings out of the drain system.

Wow...that's an incredible amount of rounds as someone else has mentioned.

Have you ever cleaned it?
