IF the man says its good with that much oil on , and not to use grease , i am taking his advice , after all , he makes the shot gun . great vid well done all .

100% spot on about engine oil working perfectly on shotguns.  Spending $10/oz for “gun oil” is a waste of money.  If an oil can protect an engine for 10,000 miles, it can lubricate a shotgun!

I've been watching this channel for a couple of years now. IMHO, this is the most useful video you've ever posted.

The glue that holds the rib on he funny 👍👍👍🤣😀

This video shouldn't be demonetized. He's not modifying anything.

Wow, the amount of oil he uses! I had no idea this was used to flush, in addition to lubricating. Brilliant! I could sit at this man's knee like a little pup and learn from his massive, accumulated knowledge all day. A consummate professional!

Today is a learning Day on gun care!  Fab video. 👌

He's exactly right... About Oil!

Caution while working with any oils- you cannot leave paper sheets nor fabric rags which have been soaked or even in contact with oils unattended. Spontaneous combustion of them is a very serious hazard. They need to be flushed in toilet, burned or washed.
Most famous fire because of oily rags was of Mark Twain house...

it is the first time i know that some people send their guns to someone to clean it for them... i clean all my guns by myself to the smallest part. it is so fun and make me know my guns better

7:25 I can assure you that the safety catch has been properly exercised on this gun 😄

As a quick action service a gunsmith once told me this , take the stock off , wash the action thoroughly with brake cleaner or wash in a sonic bath , dry , then drench the action in oil till it's absolutely running off then blast with an airgun from a compressor and that will leave the perfect amount of lubrication on it.
This was from a smith who works on the best Scottish guns .
I've done mine this way for decades and it seems to work fine .

I need to win the Lotto!!!!! that shotgun is so pleasing to the eye it not healthy 🤣🤣😂😂 great video as always!!!! 😍😍😍😍From South Africa🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

Wow that’s a lot of parts and pieces I’ll be letting a gunsmith service my over under I had no idea there were that many pieces

My local gunsmith hates grease so much he won’t even sell it in his shop. He says it’s like a magnet for dirt and everything else and can cause wear on moving parts.

Absolutely fascinating and great to see the guys at Longthorne again. Great vid as usual would not expect anything else but total professionalism. Makes me wish now I paid more attention in school so I could have been a gunsmith, Ah well. Might buy an old banger to practice on as a hobby. Cheers peeps!

Great inside look at cleaning and the Longthorne.  My hat goes off to gunsmiths for the years of learning how these action come together.
Lol. If it took one apart I would be boxing all the bits and pieces (that I didn’t loose) and taking it all to the smith for reassembly.

Thanks for the great video. It really helped me for maintaning my Shotgun. Greetings from South Korea

The lubrication method advocated here differs from Johnnys vid on the subject from 5 years ago, when grease was in vogue!  "Oiling is a total loss system" - so after a few opens and closes you've totally lost all of your oil.....  Where do people go shooting who get all this grit in their guns that will act as "grinding paste"?  The beach? an iron foundry? a stonemasons yard?

I love videos like this of me reviewing and disassembling beautiful classic rifles.
