Cleaning Chrome-Lined Barrels
G
I know they say you shouldn't, but it goes against everything I do with my other guns.
Bout every 500 rounds or so I run a brush and a little solvent through it, but I still feel like I should clean it thoroughly after each use.
What does everyone else do here and how often??

Guess I must be dreaming. Thought I read that on AR15.com that too much cleaning if chrome-lined barrels would shorten barrel life and you didn't need to clean unless the accuracy started to suffer.
So I am good with Hoppes and a bronze bore brush after each shooting session??

Chrome is very hard. You might be thinking of the stainless steel barrels.Guess I must be dreaming. Thought I read that on AR15.com that too much cleaning if chrome-lined barrels would shorten barrel life and you didn't need to clean unless the accuracy started to suffer.
