This is very wrong way of cleaning the pistol shown in the above video.

1. He didn't use cleaning rod to clean the barrel from inside.
2. Excessive oil is bad for the pistol as it will latter sip down in your holster and damage it and also excessive oil attracts dust.
3. Too much oil in magazine and chamber can penetrate into cartridges and damage them.

First of all learn to disassemble the barrel. It is very important step in cleaning the pistol because then only you can clean the barrel from chamber end to muzzle.

It is very important to clean the barrel from chamber end to muzzle because if you do it in reverse, dust particles will get deposited into the chamber.

You can learn to disassemble the barrel of your IOF pistol from your local gunsmith or search for a video on YouTube.

The video below is the proper way to clean a pistol
