Carbon, lead and copper wash don't come out of an assembled action with patches and hope. Cavitation cleans the whole group — firing-pin channels, extractor recesses, gas paths — in one supervised cycle.
Slides, frames, cylinders and small parts at field-strip level — no detail strip, no lost springs. 5–15 minutes in firearm concentrate.
Fouling and chemistry rinsed clear of the action.
The step nobody expects: a second tank with lubricant drives oil into the same tolerances cleaning just emptied. Parts return to service protected, not just clean.
Excess drained, wipe down, function check, rack. A tray of service weapons in the time hand-cleaning does one.
Hand-cleaning quality depends on who held the brush and how late it was. A fixed cycle returns every weapon in the same inspectable state — and the log shows it.
A rack cleans while the armourer does armourer work. Post-range days stop being overtime days.
Firing-pin channels, extractor recesses, gas systems — fouling out of geometry that no rod or brush enters, without detail stripping.
Dealers, clubs, gunsmiths: pistol groups and cylinders tray at a time — recipes lock the SOP.
