Showering with your rifle?

I've showered my rifle before, but never with my rifle.

I showered my C9 until I almost got caught, then I didn't have the balls to risk it again lol. Nothing worse than an angry (height challenged) RCR Toon Master Jack teaching Reg Force SQ...
 
Laundry tub, scouring powder and hot water were our friends during Battle School at Wainwright!

A picture from the past! Oh to be young and foolish again....

There's the quonset hut we lived in back in the days of the FNC1A1 :D

Cheers,

The Right ankle boot in Hungrys locker is crooked ....Dammit !

I forgot about using scouring powder ... and cleaning C2,s in the laundry tub :)
 
I clean my rifle like a normal person.... However ABnormal I usually am. I got to see a live fire platoon attack once from the highway. Kinda neat. At least thats what I think it was. They had a big tower there. Hungry, don't fret. You are handsome as ever! (Thursday is near approaching!)

ive seen what brake cleaner can do to a c7. please dont use brake cleaner. showering is fine though. there is nothing worse than doing a vault inspection and finding shiney bolts and c7's
 
On basic, I always showered with any weapon I was assigned. Our staff encouraged it because "a shower doesn't hurt a riffle to get it clean but picking at it with sharp metal objects does".
I shower with my SKS reciever after coming home from a range day.


The terps sure did though. Had a young trooper (18 y.o.) that looked 16 and he got special attention despite the fact that there were separate times for us and terps at MSG.

The local malic kept trying to buy our very skinny int op guy.... even had flowers delivered to the gate to "woo" him. It became a running joke that if he didn't do a good job we would just sell him off for a couple of goats.

we had ANP living in our strong point with us, we gave thier shacks a wide birth on thurdays....

You probably witnessed chlorinated brake cleaner or someone got it on the plastic.

I use non-chlorinated brake cleaner all the time on my rifles and pistols.

I would shoot the first one that touched me or whipped it out in my presence. Call it self defence.
