The Art of Manliness - How to Clean your Revolver

I just found it exciting that something like this is recognized as normal and manly, given the nature of society today.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I am excited they chose a revolver, rather than a Glock!

I have reached a conclusion regarding every member of this forum.
I no longer respect any of you. I hope the following offends you as much as this thread has offended me:
You are all awful people. I mean this *expletive deleted*ing seriously.

A couple nits with the presentation.

He tactilely checks his revolver is loaded by touching the forcing cone.

Dipping bore brush directly into the bottle of solvent.

"Cock back the hammer and clean it."  done with the cylinder open, but without having to pull back on the cylinder release.  Is this a feature of Colts?  With S&W/Taurus/Charter, probablyt others, you would have to hold the cylinder release open.

So is that site somewhat manly, or just poser-ish, or what?

Well, it won't make anyone grow a penis just from reading, but it will teach you a lot of the responsibilities of ownership.

I've been following it for a while, I think based on links Ben posted, and it's pretty worthwhile. The focus is generally on the important things, rather than any hipster/poser agenda.
