The old Steven Young's brew is probably the one that springs to mind. The instructions for cleaning said create an emulsion by adding some water. The addition of water was probably to attack the shite that I normally cleaned using boiling water.
I wouldn't completely bag CRC. A blast down the barrel and then the firearm stored barrel down will help preserve until a more methodical clean can occur. This better than no action at all.
CRC Marine and Long Life are great products you just don't have to drench your gun in them.
Most gun oils/solvents will attack wooden stock finishes. That's why I'm now trying Frog Lube.
Tried to repatriate a mates gun that had "gone off" accuracy wise. The bedding was totalled. Saturated in whatever gun oil he used. A lot of it had found its way down the king screw into the bedding.
