I bought a Chinese type 56 SKS for $50. The guy who sold it to me complained of double and triple fires when he would go to the range. I got it out of the stock and started cleaning. It became obvious that he had never cleaned it! The firing pin was wedged forward from all the caked up carbon inside. Getting the upper hand guard off was difficult due to all the grit. Cleaned up nice though and shoots just fine now :-)

corrosive ammo is not a horrible thing to shoot out of your rifle, you just have to clean it really well after you shoot it. i shoot military surplus ammo with my mosin nagant and it is vary accurate. after im done shooting i just use some windex with ammonia on the barrel, bolt, and magazine then use a bore brush down the barrel, a few patches then some oil and i don't have a spot of rust on it

Just use a spray bottle with water, while the barrel is WARM, not scalding hot.

My general rule of thumb is that I'll still fire in a bolt action but I don't want to mess around with anything semi-auto and corrosives. There's just too many nooks and crannies and a gas operating system that can be missed

I remember the first time I ever fired my SKS, it was with corrosive surplus ammo and fortunately I was with a friend familiar with that ammo who made me clean the rifle in a bathtub full of warm water & soap. That worked fairly well followed by a thorough drying which was then followed by a light oiling with CLP. Even with regular ammo, it's not a bad idea to do this type of cleaning now and then to remove old gunk in small areas as long as you make sure to it well dry and oil it afterwards.

Good video. You are right about proper, timely cleaning, but I have cleaned some AR's right after the range and there was much more carbon, but no rust. All in all, that Yugo ammo seems pretty clean! I once loaned a Chilean Mauser to a buddy, who shot corrosive ammo through it, and didn't bother to clean it. Had I known he was using old, surplus ammo; I would have never let him use it. He finally brought it back (after 2 months), not cleaned. I found the bore was pitted when I cleaned it.

@Matthew Smith, In the Marines I was taught, Weapon, gear, body. That rifle you own will take care of you, if you take care of it. Now, go get some Hoppe's #9 bore copper solvent, and Break Free CLP, maybe a silicone gun rag for surface rust too.

What is the best mixture for cleaning after firing that type of ammo? Would simple green work for after shooting cleaning?

Thank you for the great video. How do you tell if the shells you are using are corrosive? Or not?

If it is Old military Surplus ammunition it will most likely be corrosive. If it is new production ammunition then it is ok. Very old ammunition used to have salt in the primer causing your gun to corrode if you didn't clean it with water

In the Army we used straight solvent tanks to clean the Browning .50s. Grease Em back up, good to go.

Would it be advisable to bake all of the metal parts at say 200-300 degrees to completely dry the metal or would that be overkill? I work in the semiconductor industry and have learned that steel can hold onto moisture for a very long time at room temp unless it's "baked out."

I've always used Hoppes #9 for corrosive ammo solvent. How does simple green compare for effectiveness (and which simple green version are you using)?

How do you prevent rust on the trigger group? there are a lot of surfaces and hard-to-reach areas.

As a general question, why can't you parkerize the receiver? I was looking to do exactly that with mine.

MidcoastMaine Arms heat it up again to remove it. But really, you should have an actual gun smith do it if you don't have the proper tools.
