Sort of along the same lines as the Wipe-out posting.....I have recently read about a bore coating that has been getting good reviews. It's a one time treatment and is to greatly reduce copper, carbon etc. build up in a barrel making it easier to clean and to allow fewer cleanings. It's from Dyna-Tek.com. I think when I get caught up I'll give it a try. I don't mind cleaning guns but I'd like to try it.
