the cost: weighing 15 lbs and still being a late 1940s rifle at heart so it needs plenty of possibly temp sensitive grease to work smoove

DEPENDING ON THE FIT OF THE ACTION INTO STOCK IT MAY TAKE A FEW SHOTS (TWO MAGS TOPS) TO SETTLE INTO THE OLD ZERO AFTER YOU TAKE IT APART

JUST DONT TAKE THE ACTION OUT OF THE STOCK

YOU CAN CLEAN THE PISTON FINE WITH EVERYTHING STILL IN

YOU CAN TAKE THE TRIGGER GROUP OUT AND IT WONT AFFECT THE ZERO

JUST DO THE DETAIL STRIP AND CLEAN ONCE A YEAR AND ITS FINE

IT WILL STILL EAT AS MUCH DIRT AS IT CAN REACH WITH ITS ACTION BUT THATS JUST HOW THE ACTION IS LAID OUT

it doesn't matter if i've taken it out of the stock or not (i haven't had to since removing the cosmoline, actually) but all my garand actions need a warmup clip. Maybe it's because i'm using a thin surface smear of autozone wheel bearing grease that smells like a west texas oil well instead of muh red lithium grease but i tend to get failure to feeds on that first group of the day. runs like a swiss watch after that, both the .30-06 and carbine.
