How to Clean a GP100
- 1). Press the cylinder release button on the left side and swing the cylinder out. Depress the ejector rod on the front of the cylinder to eject any cartridges from the chambers. Leave the cylinder open.

- 6). Remove the bronze brush from the cleaning rod, and replace it with the jag. Wet a patch with the solvent and push it through the barrel. Discard the patch. Wet a second patch and push it through each of the chambers. Discard that patch.
- 7). Place a dry patch on the jag. Insert the patch into the muzzle and push it the full length of the barrel. Discard the patch.
- 8). Place another dry patch on the jag, and wipe each of the six chambers in the cylinder. Discard the patch.
