Hello!
I recently received a 7.62 AR upper receiver. It's a nice one but it's clearly been sitting forever as there is a layer of rust aaaaall down the bore. It's a nice thick coating. I have a 30 cal brass brush and hoppes, but I was just wondering if I could soak it in white vinegar for a while to make the cleaning easier. I know the barrel would be fine but I'm mainly thinking of the gas tube. I don't want to clog it up or eat away at it or anything. I'm assuming it's fine but wanted to check with yall first to make sure I'm not being an idjit.
Thanks!
