Dunk-Kit is the greatest
thing that's happened to my gun-cleaning procedure
since the invention of Sweets 7362 Bore cleaner. Here
you have a magical solvent that is as close to
drip-and-dry cleaning as it will ever get.
Invented by famed pistolsmith Bill Laughridge of
the Cylinder & Slide Shop, Dunk-Kit has been on
the market for years. But I only recently Discovered
it.
The exact formulation is a secret, but the fact
that Bill Laughridge once owned a carburetor business
on the side gives me some reason to suspect that the
origin of this miraculous liquid lies somewhere in the
automotive industry.
I don't know what it is, but I know what it does;
it cuts crud and powder fouling like no tomorrow. I
shot over 500 rounds of lead reloads through a Les
Baer Premiere ii 1911, which thoroughly fouled the
bore and gunked up the rails with powder residue.
Those lead rounds made a nice mess of a good gun
I field stripped the pistol into its components ---
slide frame barrel and spring ---and dunked them one
at a time In Dunk Kit. Then swished the parts
vigorously and broke loose virtually all the gunk. The
frame came out gleaming like a newly waxed Corvette.
The slide looked equally spotless.
Immersing the barrel in Dunk-Kit and scrubbing it
with a bronze brush did the trick on end build up
which was more than noticeable in the first inch of
the barrel. While not entirely free of elbow grease
the barrel cleaning in the Dunk-Kit solution took
considerably less effort than the usual brush and
solvent method.
