This is how I used to clean my semi-auto .22s:
1 - take the barreled action out of the stock
2 - while working the slide back and forth spray into the action CRC Brakleen
3 - wait 20 mins for the Brakleen to evaporate (leaves no residue after the solvents evaporate)
4 - put 1 drop of Devcon 3 ATF (automatic transmission fluid) into the action while again working the slide back and forth.
5 - put barrelled action back into stock = done.

Um, its a gun, it doesnt have an automatic transmission or brakes.
