My policy on firearms is a thorough cleaning after shooting them. Perhaps, if I discharged my firearms more often, I would consider it a chore. However, as it stands, I enjoy the entire process: the physical act of disassembly, smelling the gunpowder solvent, examining each part, wiping each component until a new patch remains white, oiling all metal parts and reassembling. I enjoy the ritual almost as much as the physical act of shooting the gun. I intend to spend more time at the range in 2006, I hope that my love for cleaning guns will not diminish.
