What do you mean by deep cleaning?Brake cleaning fluid sprayed on all the action parts and in the barrel should remove all the junk.Just take the furniture off first.
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience
Where in WI? The gun smith shop in the old Gander Mountain store in Kenosha (Camper World now) is open again under new ownership. Roy worked there, ran it, and just worked out a deal to buy all the equipment and, for now, is in the same location. They do really nice work.
It isn't what happens to you that defines you, it's what you DO about what happens to you that defines you!
Yup, Brownell's has a series of videos on disassembly, cleaning/lubrication, reassembly. I used them yesterday do tear down & reassemble my BPS. They recommend buying a set of thin screwdrivers for the job.
Wag more, bark less.

The men who wrote the Second Amendment didn't just finish a hunting trip, they just finished liberating a nation.
Maybe I'm missing something. Is an A5 that hard to disassemble? Lotta guns get by with a aerosol blast and a toot of oil.
They are not difficult but much more detailed and time consuming than an 870. Thin blade, hollow ground screwdrivers are needed and a 3/8 punch with one side ground flat for a retaining pin. Most old schoolers would either flush it with diesel fuel and lube the piss out of it, rather than do a full breakdown. In my teens and early 20s I did a stiff business, a month before pheasant season, doing tear downs for guys. I bought about a lot of them at pawn shops, frozen by caramelized oil and junk for cheap too. Fixed them up and tripled my money. Still have about a dozen Remington 11s and Brownings in the safe.
I tried to take mine apart and could tell I was going to strip the screwheads. I talked to Art about it and he said you have to have the correct screwdrivers.
Art is actually retired but the guys now running the shop are excellent and sharp….
But yes if you do it without a really good set of gunsmith screwdrivers AND be careful to pick the right blades… you will be sorry. Brownells has the super thin blades in a kit.. I don’t think they are part of the normal kit.
