Your average gun cleaning time?

And at 6 mos you will do the same, 2 applications while it is apart?

That's my plan, unless like I said earlier something crazy happens and I have to relube it sooner.

That's a big 10-4!

I shoot weekly, usually taking 3-4 guns and sometimes a semi rifle. A buddy of mine asked me how long it takes me to clean my guns and I said about 1hr per gun, 1.5 for an ar. He told me that is insane and with how much I clean I should be a lot faster. I have a lot of guns so it might be months before I shoot the gun again in my rotation so I do a very detailed clean afterwards. How long does it take you guys and to what level of cleaning do you do. I do full cleans and get all the internal surfaces/component cleaned.

I do it right, it takes the same times you're describing.

Twenty minutes up to one hour depending on which firearms. Pistols are the quickest usually twenty to thirty minutes, Mt Finn upgrade Mosin up to an hour.

Before Froglube, about 15 minutes. After Froglube, 5 minutes or less. I don't buy into snake oil products, but I can tell you with 100 percent certainty that the stuff works, and works well.

Another hijack - I did read the whole thread but have one question/thought.

I am going to try this stuff but after looking at the FAQ's on their site I was planning on using the old fashioned method of cleaning them to rid the guns of the carbon, lead, copper, brass, etc deposited on the firearms.

Then use their product in the manner described by them. My thought is that they talk about the removal of carbon with their product but mention nothing about the other junk. I am guessing that I would want to rid the parts of that stuff first and that it would not adhere later. Dunno...

Did you do that? Am I wrong in my thinking?

Anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour depending the firearm and how many rounds went through it...

[PocketProtector]

A long as possible but if the erection longer than 4 hours I seek medical treatment.

[Gunowner99]

That's a good problem to have.

Are you talking about the initial prep before the heat treat?
