Ok guys,
I have my first 1911 waiting for me at my FFL. Just gotta wait for NYS to put it on my permit this week.
What do I need to pick up for maintenance and cleaning?
Ear Protection= A military set, circa early 1990's
Eye Protection= Gotta pick some up.
Holster=Looking, probably a Rosen 5JR Express from Terry Peters at PT Partners if he has one in stock.
Lube= (12) 16oz bottles of Militec-1 that the contractor gave to my father when he was trying to get a contract with the Navy. Those should be good for general lube and oil right? Do I need anything else?
Cleaning Kit= Gonna get a standard kit when I pick up the pistol next week.
Do I need any other patches, lube, tools, etc?
Would someone list everything that I would need to top notch maintain a stainless steel 1911?
I know I could do a search, but since I don't know what I need, how do I find all of it. I like to be complete.
Thanks in advance.
