This is an excellent video Ray! I was a unit armorer my first 3 yrs in the Infantry and I loved showing all of the guys in my unit how to maintain everything from the M2 heavy barrel machine gun to the M1911A1 pistol. The only time the fellas in my unit didn’t like me was when I inspected their weapons on return from the range or training exercises and sent them back to clean it better. It was so awesome to go out and have everyone shoot good and not have major issues with their weapon. If they did have malfunctions I usually had it remedied right away or fixed it when we got back in garrison. So I really liked your video and your explanation for the reasons of why it is important to do the things involved to maintain your weapon properly.
It never hurts me to see another well-made firearm (AR, bolt action, etc,) cleaning video and especially from a man who uses one in competition. No matter how many times I may have seen someone else's video covering the same subject, your's ends up being the best and most enjoyable. Thanks Ray.
I watched this video over a year when I bought my AR 15. Unfortunately, I suffered a shoulder injury and needed shoulder replacement. I finally got the opportunity to use the AR 15 yesterday. I remembered this video from last year and found it again. An extremely well done video that I followed to do my cleaning. It took me a few hours but well worth it as I learned more about the gun and a great way to clean it!
After struggling with other tutorials, you had the most straightforward and easy to understand tutorial for my first time cleaning. Love the video and will be watching more of yours to come!
Greetings, this is the best AR cleaning video! Thank you for taking your time and showing us your way on cleaning your own AR. It has been a very educated video on disassembly and assembly the internal parts before and after cleaning. Thank you very much!
As a new AR owner I sincerely appreciate this video. I enjoyed this clear, concise, and easy to follow video that most posters muck-up. I need to make up a shopping list though!
This is well made video. From explanation to camera angles and view points of what's being done. And he is doing it on a DDM4V7 Tornado Grey, I love mine so much!
Outstanding content for any AR 15 owner. I perform almost the same identical cleaning tasks. My exception is the I use Birtchwood Casey Lead Remover cloth to to clean the bolt tail and remove the carbon build up. I have not been cleaning off the copper, but will incorporate it into my cleaning routine. I always walk away smarter after watching your videos.
From Sweden here and will probably never own a gun. Tried a few different guns at a range when I visited the US, but that's as far as my experience with firearms goes. Still enjoyed this video, and several of your other ones. Your content, quality and presentation is fantastic. Awesome work!
@@khann844 I dunno, Sweden has a lot of gun owners, like the people in the states who rely on their neighbors in crisis instead of having a gun, the swedes can probably rely more on their neighbors than we can.
I am a Dutch shooter, owning a Colt Sporter H-bar and never dared to take it apart. Watching this video i learned how to take the boltcarrier apart and put it back together again. Thanks a lot!
I must say that this video is very informative especially to those who have never done it I have been a .22LR bench shooter for many years all to familiar with that process. Recently purchased my first AR-15 and didn't know where to look for the take down of the rifle I'm certainly satisfied with the video on the how to's thank you for your time in bringing it to me I certainly do appreciate it
A well descript video on maintenance... Wish everybody did this good of a job. Great work!! a lot of videos out there just running through to get exposure but this guy gets to the details which is much needed 👍😎
First time I’ve watched your videos and I needed this info in a bad way. I’ve had a few AR’s but have always sold them not knowing much about them. Thank you for sharing this valuable information. I’m definitely subscribing and sharing your video to my friends.
Good info..Just purchased my first AR and was really puzzled on how to clean it.Now I see your video and see that I have to purchase another cleaning kit..All good..Thanks for shooting this video 👍🏾
Watching 3 years later (according to youtube date) and appreciating the hell out of this. I'm former military and learned a new trick or two from this. Thank you!
Darn, I spent 20 min watching how to clean an AR, and that is something I have never seen and not even allowed over here, but one can always learn regardless and that is what one does watching and getting info from you - thx for sharing :)
BrianOnTheGo Eah, he was pretty clear this was his way. Leaving a thin coat of corrosive solvent without being neutralized all over everything and putting oil in the exhaust ports are where I differ.
Holy cow! Shout out to your cameraman. I thought this was tripod mounted or steady-cammed until I saw your buddy holding the cellphone in the reflection. Now THAT is a good example of natural point of aim!
thank's for the very informative video man .... I've been using bolt action's my whole life for deer hunting and just recently decided to buy a ar 15 223 for hunting deer... your cleaning video is very informative for me cause this is my 1st ar I've ever owned ... thank's and keep up the good work .
Just got my first AR. Watched 4 million vids. Wish this was first, I would have been done. Thank you for a great instruction.
Congrats on the AR! I appreciate you watching the channel. 👍🏼
This is my second video just got mine very thankful
this is the "how to clean your AR" period video.
Best, most thorough, straightforward AR-cleaning video I've seen yet. Very well done.

As a newcomer to ARs , this is the video to watch. 100% THANK YOU, especially with the bolt assembly!!!!
My pleasure Dwayne and thanks for watching.

Good info and filmed so we can see everything! So many others share great information but fail to clearly show what they are doing.👍
Been messing with and shooting guns for well over 40 years, hands down best video I've ever watched on AR cleaning. Great Job!

I love watching someone else clean guns. I watched this a second time to take notes.

Got my first AR a while ago, really informal video. Thankyou.

Quick and thorough cleaning. Thank you!
Short, direct and no b.s. Perfect!

You will rarely ever need too. He uses proof research barrels for competition shooting so he shoots a lot.
Ray, I always enjoy the tips and tricks videos.
Thank you! Been shooting awhile but just got my first AR. This helps a lot.
Loved this, learned some new things like that scope is half the price of my used mini-van, but seriously a great cleaning video
Great video and very thorough explanation on what and how to do it and what not to do. Greatly appreciated.
Great video, now I feel that I need to clean my AR! You made it look really simple.
From Sweden here and will probably never own a gun. Tried a few different guns at a range when I visited the US, but that's as far as my experience with firearms goes. Still enjoyed this video, and several of your other ones. Your content, quality and presentation is fantastic. Awesome work!
It shock's me when people have this kind of false sense of security
@@khann844 Could you elaborate?
@@khann844 lol ok we’ll see how you do when life comes & bites you in your ass & you’re defenseless

@@daltongarrett7117 as reinsuring as that sounds I’d rather be a armed citizen as opposed to unarmed victim relying on my neighbor
Best AR cleaning video I've seen yet!
Very effective and quick - thanks!
Thanks for keeping me company while I clean my bits and parts.
Probably the best vid I’ve seen on this subject in all my years. Well done sir.
Great video! Super set-up!
Thanks, I really like some of your techniques.
I picked up a few pointers but for the most part I have been doing the same process. Nice informative video.👍

Best cleaning video I've seen so far. Thanks.
Now I know everything I've been doing wrong cleaning my AR....Everything. Thanks so much for teaching the correct way.
