I'm sorry. I need to add something here. When I said 'further disassembly' is not required I meant detailed stripping. Of course you back your nipples out. When you're making sure the piece is dry, use something like a pipe cleaner to work around the small, tight areas. If you know how and have the time it is still a good idea to detail strip every once in a while if for no other reason than to examine each part (screws, springs,everything) in minute detail, checking for wear and tear. If you don't know how, there are several sites on your computer that will show you the diagrams and schematics of your particular piece. WARNING!! Re-assembly of a blackpowder revolver from full dis-assembly is very time consuming and can be very complicated. If you do not qualify at least as a 'homegrown' gunsmith, (and you must not be or else you wouldn't be looking for cleaning tips) it would be my humble suggestion that you simply remove the grips, the clyinder, the nipples, drop the loading lever and let it hang free, spray all metal parts down with a solvent, boil all metal parts, dry, lighly oil, re-assemble and enjoy..
