Go to the horses mouth. "Call Kahr".

I hear folks say all the time, the brake cleaner has the same ingredients that gun cleaners have, and brake cleaner is cheaper. Perhaps the same ingredients, but take a close look at the percentages of each. I've seen some nasty results of cleaning guns with automotive cleaners. Spending hundreds of dollars on a gun then risking damaging it to save a few dollars, doesn't make sense to me.

To each his/her own.......

Thanks...point made, point taken.

Brake cleaner melts many plastics. Either use "Plastic Safe" gun cleaner or what I use is Kerosene. You can get a squirt bottle for it or just put it and the gun in a pan and slosh it around. Use compressed air or "Canned air if you wish to dry it quickly.
