    Not that there's anything wrong with being extra careful, but you'd have to clean a LOT of really dirty guns for that amount of lead to become an issue.

    Personally, I like to wait until someone comes to the door trying to sell me something, then I sit on the couch with my snake around my neck and start stripping my gun and talking to myself. Oddly enough, they always seem to remember a previous appointment they forgot about.
