Didn't have any brake clean, AW used it all.  Thought about CLP, but didn't want to make the trip to find some and I HATE the smell of Hoppes.  WD actually works pretty good in a pinch.  The spray lithium is very thin... not the pasty stuff like my dad always had around (LubriPlate).  We have a butt load of bore brushes so the barrel is spic n span.  I always shoot CCI or Winchester SuperX.  I used to buy Thunderbolt back 10 years ago when it was the cheapest you could find and I would take AW out to shoot (he was 10 or so at the time) and he would burn through 500 - 600 rounds every time I took him.  Obviously, the gun was dirty or dry, as it hadn't seen much action since AW started collecting every gun he could find LOL.  It's a fun little pistol that is relatively cheap to shoot... can't hit the side of a barn with it though (seriously low and left).  If changing the recoil spring and guide rod back to the original fixes the lock-on-last-round issue, I'm planning on swapping it for something else.
