What type of lubricant to do you clean your M4 carbine rifle with in hot climate conditions?
Lubricants are not used to CLEAN firearms- they are to lubricate them. The M-4 should be cleaned with bore cleaning solvent (the civilian equivalent is Hoppes #9 or a similar product) and lubricated with LSA (Lubricant, small arms). The civilian equivalent is a product like Break-Free CLP. If you are military, see the -10 manual on your carbine. If you are not military, see the owner's manual. If you don't have an owner's manual, contact the maker- they will send you one.

I have a Winchester 67 Canadian with no rifling in the barrel is this a common defect Can it be rifled now?
No, not a common defect. Couple of possibilities- first, there WERE Winchester 67s made as shotguns- to fire only .22 SHOT cartridges- so look closely at the barrel markings. Second possibility- these are older rifles. Wear, and buildup of deposits can make the shallow rifling disappear. Cure is THOROUGH cleaning, using a decent solvent such as Hoppes #9 and a bronze brush (clean from the rear, please). In general, the barrels cannot be rifled "after the fact"- the bore diameter would be too large.
How do you clean the inside of the barrel of a rifle?
The most common means is by using a bore brush (metal or plastic), a cleaning rod, and cleaning solvent. Solvents (the best known in probably Hoppes #9) dissolve carbon, and can remove fouling from jacketing metal. The mechanical scrubbing action of the brush loosens carbon and lead fouling. The bore is them dried with a clean cloth patch, and a light coat of oil applied. IF corrosive primed ammunition is fired, standard solvents do NOT remove the salts created by those primers, and the bore will need to be washed with hot soapy water. There are other rather exotic means of cleaning that involve electrolysis or ultrasonic sound.
What are the basic materials needed to clean a cartridge rifle?
While there is a HUGE variety of cleaning systems and materials available, let's start with the basics. A simple cleaning kit should be available at any gun shop, or the sporting goods department of your local department store. You will need a cleaning rod, a bore brush of the correct caliber (either bronze or synthetic- they both work) a cleaning patch holder, a good light gun oil (I use RemOil) and a powder solvent (I have been using Hoppes #9 for 60 years), and cleaning patches. A few Q tips are also handy for cleaning tight spots.
What is the best way to remove gun shot residue from stainless steel revolver cylinder?
Bronze brush and powder solvents, such as the old standby, Hoppes #9. You might also try one of the treated cleaning cloths, such as a Wipe-a-way. Flitz metal polish can also be used for final cleanup.
