I know i am a little OCD when it comes to cleaning guns and i always get paranoid about rust and then overlubricate and then wipe off excessive oil and relubricate again, but it still seems totake me too long - about an hour for handguns (for semi-auto mostly due to amount of surfaces exposed to resedue, for revolvers due to cleaning each chamber of the cylinder) and over an hour for rifles.And after that i still cannot get the barrel to the point of patch coming out clean - it always has some balckresedue on thegrooves. Maybe i am overdoing or maybe i am doing it wrong.So the question is how long does it take you to clean and what procedure/tools you are typically using for:
1) Semi-auto handun
2) Revolver
3) Rifle/shotgun
