LCP cleaning

(1/1)

unfy:
A friend's mom carries an LCP in her purse.  Sadly, the other day she managed to dump an entire diet coke into her purse, soaking EVERYTHING, including the LCP.

I'm unsure exactly how drenched the LCP got, but I've given her some standard cleaning suggestions and an apparently decent complete disassembly video from youtube:

Is having her follow these instructions such a great idea ? Seems to be a fair amount of careful work by steady hands.  I dunno exactly *how* soaked the weapon got, but given that this is her carry weapon, I would insist on a complete cleaning personally.

Would just telling her to take it to a gunsmith for a thorough cleaning be wiser ?

bullit:
The Diet Coke probably did the trick.  Wipe it off, replace the ammo, and live with it.

Bill:
I'm not a gunsmith, but if it was mine I'd just clean it thoroughly, lube, and shoot.  Then evaluate performance.

FarmerRick:
... and if that doesn't give the desired effect, spray the whole thing down with a can of Gun Scrubber's "Synthetic Safe" Gun Cleaner.
