This expert-level guide details the step-by-step disassembly of the Ruger 10/22 rifle, as demonstrated by Ruger Firearms. It emphasizes crucial safety precautions, including confirming the firearm is unloaded and wearing safety glasses. The process requires minimal tools: a 5/32 Allen key and a small punch, making it accessible for routine maintenance and cleaning.

John Lovell of Warrior Poet Society demonstrates a practical approach to handgun lubrication, prioritizing oil over frequent cleaning. He emphasizes applying lubricant to slide rails, barrel lugs, and the feed ramp, especially on visible wear spots. The process involves field stripping, targeted oil application, reassembly, and cycling the action to ensure even distribution for optimal firearm function.

This video focuses on the maintenance, or lack thereof, of a pistol that hasn't been cleaned in five years. The title suggests a demonstration of the firearm's condition after an extended period of neglect, likely leading into a cleaning or functional test.

This expert-level guide details the assembly and disassembly of the Ruger Red Label III over/under shotgun. It emphasizes safety protocols, including ensuring the firearm is unloaded and wearing safety glasses. The process involves separating the receiver/stock from the barrel/fore-end, with specific instructions for fore-end removal and reattachment. Crucially, it highlights the need to fully move the top lever right before barrel installation to avoid damage, followed by a function check of the safety and barrel selector.

This expert advice from GUNS and American Handgunner Magazines strongly advises against using steel wool for gun cleaning unless specific products and tools are known. Instead, it recommends utilizing professional gun cleaning services offered by full-service gun stores once or twice a year. These services are presented as a cost-effective way to ensure firearms are properly cleaned, lubricated, and undergo a safety inspection, potentially identifying and rectifying minor issues.

This guide provides essential steps for cleaning and maintaining firearms with scandium frames. It emphasizes treating scandium like aluminum, using light cleaning and oil, and avoiding abrasives. The importance of checking for flame cutting, even with protective guards, is also highlighted.

This video hilariously tests a heavily accessorized AR-15, dubbed the 'Zombie Carbine,' as a parody of excessive tactical gear. The build, based on a Smith & Wesson M&P15, weighs 23 pounds fully loaded with 270 rounds across nine magazines. It features multiple optics, lasers, lights, and is demonstrated with rapid fire, hip sniping, and Tannerite explosions.

This "ultimate AR-15 meltdown" test pushes a custom build to its limits, revealing key durability insights. The Faxon barrel ultimately burst after 830 rounds, but critical components like the Sharps SRC bolt carrier group and Geissele rail demonstrated impressive resilience under extreme stress and heat. The test highlights the AR-15 platform's robust design, even when subjected to conditions far exceeding typical operational use.

This video showcases an extreme full-auto durability test of a premium Definitive Arms VEPR AK, comparing it to a budget WASR-10. The VEPR AK demonstrated exceptional resilience, enduring 895 rounds before failure, significantly outperforming the WASR-10 and even a previously tested AR-15. The expert analysis highlights the AK platform's inherent durability and heat management characteristics, even under severe stress.

This video demonstrates the legendary durability of the AK platform by subjecting a Yugo M92 PAP to a 700-round continuous firing test. Despite extreme heat causing significant smoke and glowing metal, the firearm remained functional, showcasing Mikhail Kalashnikov's robust engineering. The test concludes with a cooling process and a tribute to the designer's legacy.
