When dissembling the gun, it is a good idea to take a picture of its initial construction before taking out the parts so you can use it as a reference when reassembling.
I agree with you, but taking a picture is a recent thing. What did we ever do before cell phones with cameras?
@@ppainterco 😂 that’s quite random and irreverent, owners manual bro , owners manual still helps more than a picture sometimes
@@SR-gs8zo you make good points. I never disassemble my revolvers unless it’s to replace a spring. I can’t imagine anyone would completely tear down their revolver because they’ve put 200 rounds through it at the range. Like what are people doing that would require such a drastic process?
Or have the manual.
@@WheelgunsOnWheels I'm guess checking for surface rust. I get OCD with metal firearms...lol
I recently inherited my grandfathers US marked S&W Model 15-1. I've never owned a revolver before and know very little of their working. To my knowledge the weapon hasn't been fired in the last twenty years at a minimum. A good cleaning is due. Thanks Larry!
The piece of cardboard is very clever comes in handy 👍
WOW. My 629 is 33 years old, fired 15K rounds and never had a problem. I will clean it today!! Thanks for your video.
@edcrobert T Yes sir. That was the 1st time I took the side plate off after watching this video. I did get the blueprints for the pistol so I would know where all the parts went back together before I took it apart. Good luck.
I removed my glasses before watching this video. While Larry was removing the rebound slide I found I was checking myself for eye protection.
Thank you for step by step instructions. Your videos are the best.
Something interesting no one will believe
My uncle was a contracted gunsmith with smith n wesson
He is the guy that came up with the concept of
Rotating the cylinder catch to disrupt the trigger. And act as a safety.
Ive even seen the patent on it
I still have trouble believing it.
Idk felt like sharing that
Cool story bro
It's ok everyone believes you
@Jesus Christ SuperStar you may very well be the funniest man alive.
I have the same S&W model 629 Classic. Haven't done a through cleaning of it yet. Awesome gun.
High quality, fantastic video. I will confidently be able to now do a detailed cleaning on my 629. Thanks.
Or any SW revolver
Love the feature! No need for me to resource-shop to assure I get the sum of information for break-down and cleaning my S&W 629 Revolver---it's all right here! Thanks for this excellent lesson!
WoW, so many (a Few) steps I didn't think of to clean a revolver easily and more thoroughly, thank you very much! I caught that technique you use, laying the end of the barrel in your hand and your hand is there to support the cleaning patch, aiming the jag (tip of cleaning rod) to poke the middle of the patch. ;)
December 19, 2013, a date which will live in infamy with S&W customer service reps for a record number of requests by customers to have their guns reassembled.
+Tony Padua the day after this video was published. Gun buyers are notorious for taking stuff apart and not being able to put it back together.
happened to me already.😭
@@SpartanB88 If it wasn't for videos like these I'd be wary of ever attempting to clean my guns
SpartanB88 😂😂😂
SpartanB88 I’d just settle for S&W not selling revolvers with clocked barrels.
That was a great and very straightforward video. Thank you.
Nicely done. Revolvers are not terribly difficult to take apart and reassemble, but it needs to be done carefully and circumspectly.
Thanks for the video Larry !............and a very nice S&W 629 revolver!
Wow, I love the in-depth insight of this video. ♡
My two revolvers sat in a safe for 15 years. I then took them directly to the range. After the first few shots they started to misfire. I would pull the trigger and it wouldn't go back all the way. I would then reload and try again. Some shots worked...some didn't. After a 10 minute cleaning using cleaner and oil...both guns started working.
If the armorer in my old department caught us taking a revolver that far down- I dont want to even think about it!
I must say, that is a beautiful piece.
awesome easy tips dude thanks
That 629 looks beautiful
I hope I can get one soon enough
Una meraviglia tecnologica!
i have a 629 identical to his but with 8 1/8" barrel. nice video and very informative.also,thos grips are no longer available at s&w so if you have them,take care of em.
Outstanding presentation! Brilliant!
SemperFi
I note a rod inside the rebound spring that acts as an overtravel stop on that 629.. These where removed on duty guns..
I've made a few from drill rod on DAO guns like the 640 J frame.
What a beautiful six shooter. I wish I had one.
Brilliant video! I loved....
Still an awesome video!
Beautiful wheel gun
Thank you!
you are the best !! thanks
I dont even care what he is saying he just seems very interesting.
I like to use mother aluminum and mag polish with a soft brush on the cylinder face to remove fouling. Works perfect
Yes... I'd never be able to steel wool my 629. I'd leave the face a little dirty before I'd do that. Using rubbing compound is an excellent idea. Toothpaste would work in a pinch. Otherwise... great video.
good info
I use Mother's mag and aluminum wheel polish to clean the cylinder scorching. Wipes right off like factory brand new, almost no effort. My gun is Stainless. Hope this helps
Great vid...answered several questions I had...as for what a Jag is for and a few others...
My one question that I need an answer to is....
Will this processes work with a Older Colt .38 special as far taking down the frame...
Great Vids Larry...Midway Rocks..
Target On
Just got my holster from midway ! Quick shipping
Larry Christmas Everyone.....
have a Hoppe's new year...
nice pun huh? nice gun larry !
Thank you for showing me how to take apart this gun. I just went through a fire and lost everything including this gun. It belonged to my father, he used this in Law Enforcement. Now I can save it. It looks fine, just a little rusty and very dirty. I soaked it in rust remover, and now in oil. I was able to get some screws loose, and others will not move yet. Maybe heat will do the rest?
My cylinders fell out while shooting my 605. I sent it in for repairs. Can't imagine life before semiautomatics. I even own two revolvers.
Sir, would you consider a drop o oil, like barricade or something like, on the screw holes?
Finally, somebody else says warsh
How about producing a similar video on cleaning a bolt-action rifle? I'd like to have one I can show my Hunter Education students.
Blaine Nay That would be a pretty short video, don’t you think? Pull the bolt, push out your trigger pins and run a brush through the barrel...reassemble in reverse order. I think every gun manufacturer recommends to not take your trigger apart any further than that unless you take it to a gunsmith. Now you could certainly do it on your own (if you are able to) but for liability reasons they don’t want you taking it apart.
Pushing your cleaning rod through from chamber to muzzle is a good practice on bolt action rifles (if the rod is long enough 😏) as you’re less likely to damage the rifles crown.
Do a video on how to clean AK's.
May I suggest specifying stainless steel wool, instead of 'regular' steel wool. The possibility of cross contamination from iron in regular steel wool exists, and any contact could decrease the corrosion resistant (stainless) property of the firearm.
Hello I would have loved it and dreamed of doing a training with you, unfortunately, the United States is too far away. Respect to you and hello from France
Larry should have demonstrated what a pain in the butt replacing the rebound slide and spring can sometimes be. A small screwdriver is usually better to use than the rebound slide tool.
Will the steel wool prematurely wear the cylinder? I would image applying bore cleaner and letting it sit should be sufficient
Brushes that are used are made of softer metal typically brass so they will not scratch at all
Brett Peterson I wouldn’t recommend this as the abrasives that are in scotch brite pads will most certainly scratch and destroy the finish on a firearm
@Brett Peterson green scotch pad is more abrasive, has embedded grit. I think he would of used that if it was good to use. notice his steel wool is the course style.
Can steel wool be used on polished stainless steel?
Did he run a patch with oil through the barrel after cleaning with solvent and dry patches? All I saw was solvent.
The inside of the barrel and cylinder holes are not recommended to be oiled. That's why you didn't see him do it.
One thing that I had contact with many years ago was; on a Smith and Wesson revolver (and probably on other "DOUBLE ACTION" revolvers as well) I, for what ever reason I don't know, pulled the trigger while at the same time pulling back the hammer. And the pistol LOCKED UP. Back then, we had to take it to a gunsmith who obviously pulled the side plate and unlocked it. That happened on a Pre Mod. 29 .44 Mag. Obviously, on a single action revolver, that problem would not exist but on a double action revolver, I guarantee you'll lock it up. Hope this might potentially help someone BEFORE it happens to them.
About how long does a thorough cleaning take? And what about if it's a gun that hasn't been fired or cleaned for a very long time? (Ten years, give or take...)
about as long as this video,;)
Where can I get a Rebound Spring tool?? I need to disassemble my S&W .38 special....Thanks!
Do you lubricate the extractor rod
Parabéns primeiro segundo e terseiro escalão
What solvent do you use?
Have a 5 screw Pre Mod Mod 29 made in 1956 we were shooting it Sunday and the Action locked up I got it unlocked but it is still not right seem rough Any Ideas out there ?
Maybe look for a utube vid. on "how to clean a revolver"
1:51 - "Patches are pushed through each cylinder" *Chamber ;)
I noticed that too, I hear a lot of people refer to revolver chambers as cylinders, despite the fact that one cylinder is all they have.
Have a part number for the rebound spring removal tool at 3:34? Thanks
I can't EVER see myself removing anything beyond the grips and cylinder. JB Bore Cleaner works as good as anything for cleaning up the bore, charge holes and removing the burn rings from the face of the cylinder. I swear by that stuff.
i know this is off topic for this video, but I cannot find a video for this. (asking on behalf of a relative) one of my family members has recently bought a .380 and the slide is horribly difficult to rack they have owned handguns for many years and have never dealt with this. is there any way to adjust sonething to loosen int or is it just stuck? (advice appreciated very much!)
Contact the manufacturer and see what they recommend.
somethin ain't in the wright place.
That's some pretty coarse steel wool he's touching that revolver with..
W... Why did you use a magnet to remove the hammer block safety?
his fingers are too fat.
How tight is the screw that holds the yoke supposed to be?
Just tight enough to be snug without binding the crane. The .44mag has a decent recoil but if you clean it after each session you will snug the screw down when you reassemble it. If you don't clean it each time, you should check the tightness of each screw after shooting.
แจ๊วดีจัง .... นะจ๊ะ ...
Can anyone tell me where to find that rebound slide removal/installation tool? I can't seem to find it anywhere online, *including* Midway's site(!).
Brownell's
I know huh!
Is there any harm in just saturating the whole mech in oil?
Gyras using too much oil will actually catch more dirt and carbon buildup so it’ll get dirtier faster
Sorry Larry, this is where you and I part company on the opinion of how best to clean a revolver. I firmly believe that were most of your audience to attempt this level of disassembly, frustration, damage and added expense would be the fruit of such labors. You're gifted well beyond most of us. I'd let you do this to my Colt Trooper MkIII. but NO WAY would I ever attempt it. Great video nonetheless!
Salve volevo chiedere un informazione il prodotto che usa per togliere la combustione di polvere da sparo come si chiama?
Might want to try copper wool instead of steel. Softer metal copper "Chore Boy" will not scratch a stainless gun. Too scared to open the side plate.
Could u use grease to lube a revolver
Michael Jordon No!!
I must've put 100 patches thru the barrel and still wont come out clean. Anyone have any advice for me?
@Brett Peterson thank you
Keep on keeping on
are you using a barrel brush too? is the dirt green (copper)? roll up a piece of rag so it will fit in the barrel, soaked in solvent. let it sit for a spell (cowboy talk)
what is the type of solvent????

I got a Taurus 83S in 1989 and fired it about ten thousand times until 1992. A gunsmith told me not to disassemble the extractor because "would be difficult not to break it" (he didn't know that model very well). Well... I disassembled the cylinder only in 2021 and I found ZERO reasons to open it, it was almost clean; no rust, no lints, debris , no powder, no fouling... I didn't understand.
how many rounds before you should clean again?
(all personal opinion) Depends on the caliber and specific gun. With a small framed .38 special for instance, I start feeling enough grittyness around 300 rounds or so, so I feels that's a good time to clean it to ensure smooth function, that number could be lower with a .44 magnum, and much higher with a .22LR and so on. I however clean my centerfire revolvers after every trip to the range unless I fired less than 100 rounds.
Dan Han a billion
Personal preference mostly. Also depends if it's a carry gun that gets exposed to more junk or a safe queen. Some ammo is quite a bit dirtier than others. I tear down my N frames probably every 6-7,000 rounds and completely scrub them. Many maintenance clean and wipe downs in between. Hunting revolvers that get used in the weather after every season.
Good Lord... If I did all this, id have no idea how to put my gun back together again

What kind of bore cleaner did you use
I'm a nobody regarding firearms, but think it shouldn't be used a steel wool to clean the cylinder front as it's abrasive to revolver's metal. A softer material like brass would be a better choice.
I agree if you are talking about a blued gun, but we are talking stainless steel in this video- and steel wool is not harmful at all to stainless unless it's very coarse steel wool.
+Sam Man Steel wool is steel wool. They're all coarse.
+Alberto Jorge Soares Well your opinion is wrong. Fine steel wool will not hurt stainless steel
How can an opinion be wrong? An opinion doesn't even have to be factual, that's why they call it opinion. You're a dummy koolaidman007, but that's just my opinion.
spanky9067 lol
Как жалко что нет перевода
One time I opened gun like this, after cleaning when I try putting back.. Every parts are not fit together ;) completely forgot how to put them back like the first time ..
That's why you should take photos at every step.
That is the coarsest steel wool I have seen in my life.
Definitely looks excessive. 000 and 0000 is nearly always enough
@@Snubrevolver I use Birchwood Casey lead remover and polishing cloth. Cut a small strip about one inch by four inches. Best thing I have ever used to clean powder fouling on the face of a cylinder. Plus it doesnt remove any material from the cylinder which steel wool may do if rubbed hard enough.
@@Mike-up6go How does it do on blueing?
@@Snubrevolver Dont use it on blued gun. It will remove the finish immediately. Only on SS
Lol...yeah it's a stainless pot scrubber from the kitchen.
Run and don't look back
Steal wool!
Why not to put a lot of oil inside ?
I know this video was for educational purposes, but Ray Charles could’ve cleaned that gun! I don’t go this deep with mine until I’ve put 1,000 rounds down range through a rain storm!
Please don’t disassemble your revolvers to clean them. A good spray solvent in each charge hole and down the barrel. Copper bore brush in all charge holes and barrel, nylon brush on cylinder face and inside window. Cotton patches on a jag in all previous holes and barrel. Old T shirt wipe down followed by oily old t shirt for protection. Disassemble only to replace or swap out springs. This video is so far beyond any necessary level of cleaning.
he said once a year pal
IMO, way too much oil is used in reassembly. Maybe if you are storing the weapon, but all the parts must disassembled and excess oil wiped off before I would ever fire it. I was taught a long time ago that even when you wipe off the oil and the metal looks dry, the oil has leached into the metal and will provide ample lubrication for proper operation. Too much oil attracts dirt and residue, all harmful to intricate moving parts.
Smith & Wesson recommends never taking off the side plate and if you must, there is a LOT more to it than this video suggests especially for blued guns. Removing a blued side plate can stress or crack the blued layer which will leave permanent marks
I wonder if Dirty Harry ever took time off to do this.... ;-)
this ain't dirty Harry
this is clean Larry
John Sfixton 😂😂
Only after every twenty fifth kill.
The random tapping throughout this video kept me pausing and listening for someone at the door.
yeah, it kept my dog barkin, hee heee kiddin
Two things you failed to mention or show. You didn't show how difficult it is to reinstall the rebound slide and its spring. The spring is very stiff and can go flying across the room or worse yet, hit you in the eye. Next, you failed to mention that the ejector rod has a left-hand thread. To loosen, turn to the right and to tighten turn to the left. Remember the term righty tighty, lefty loosey? Do the opposite. Righty loosey, lefty tighty.
3:48 to warsh it out?
🤗🤗🤗🤗🔫
3:50 warsh it good brother
I like your videos, but the music.... especially in this video, was so irritating.
Hank Hill, is that you?
The chambers are the most annoying thing to clean on a revolver.
Why is it always a Smith and Wesson? There are a whole lot of Rugers out here. Come on Larry, please.
