I hadn't thought of watching videos on training, thanks for the tips.
Please tell me you watched the "how to clean and OIL THE **** out of your AR" on the paul howe video... good lord! I hope to find a youtube video of just that for everyone's amusement. Essentially every part of an Ar (including your grips, optics, and stock) should be cleaned with break cleaner, then oiled with Crisco, 10w30, Royal Purple transmission fluid, children's tears, unicorn farts then stored in a 50 gal drum of McDonalds fry grease until you're ready to use it.
Just thought I'd share a neat ad posted on Panteao's FB page:
Duke does awesome work
