Thanks for the article. Learned something. I didn't know about the protective layer on titanium guns.

It wasn't till I joined the Army to learn the real reason about muzzle awareness. For one an object could become lodged in the barrel. And the second is the Crown will be damaged. A lot of people don't know this does affect accuracy.

Had an argument with a reddit person once. They took pictures of their Aero-15 with the barrel in the ground and the butt leaning on the tree. "Nice rifle you got there. It'd be a shame if a rock burred the muzzle."

Good article to read. New gun owners should read stuff like this.

These aren't the most comprehensive cleaning kits, but they're made in my home state and affordable so I try to buy them when I can. I supplement them with Rem oil, Hoppe's and CLP but for cleaning your pistol up after a range day, they work just fine, and I like to support my home state. They have them in several calibers also which is nice. I have some very extensive cleaning kits that I use for my AR because cleaning my rifle is a pretty involved process if you're OCD like I tend to be with my weapons..lol, but these striker fired pistols these days aren't too difficult to clean up.
