Hey everyone, this is my first time posting on this site. I actually just bought my first handgun, a SIG P220 (.45). Anyways no one ever tought me how to clean it, and the manual doesnt help much. I was wondering if anyone has any links to any online guides that could walk me through the process. I bought one of those $20 gun cleaning kits, so I think im ready. P.S. I havent fired my gun yet, hopefully this week, but I want to learn the process of cleaning it. Thanks.
Frist off can you field strip it? If you can just lightly oil eveything up, and run a oil patch down the barrel. Go have a good time. When you get home do it all over again only with the cleaning solvent. Then reoil, and your good to go.
I bet that if U do a Google search, you could find a website that even has some photos of how to do it - that would be a bit easier for U than just reading text. May not be the same un in the photos, but it would give U an idea.
I used Breakfree CLP - it cleans and lubricates all in 1 - no need for several products.
Wilson Combat has videos that show you how to maintain various handguns, including the Sig P220. Go to their we site and search on "video".
find some one in your area, gun club gunshop, leo, gunsmith and let them show you the first time and then you will have it
