i just recently obtained my first m1 carbine, an inland. its in excellent condition. havent yet shot it. i am an avid shooter, but new collector. i decided to strip it down to the bolt, but not take the bolt apart since i am inexperienced. when i went to push a patch down the barrel i had to do it from the muzzle since i have a 1 piece rod(any other way to do this?! muzzle to breech=). i used several soaked patches of hoppes, left them for 10-20 minutes, came back, put a moist one through again, then a dry one, well this dry one came through green! it was green/blue. why?!!!!!! what was this guy shooting through this thing or cleaning with?
