I thought I was pretty thorough in explaining what I did and what I was trying to do and what I realized.
One more time. I already cleaned the sleeves. I realize you dont' need to clean the actual ports raceway. But, I want to anyway. This is the question I asked.
Has anyone used anything to clean it. Not has anyone not cleaned it or left it.
I have not tried the dental pic. Thank you. That was closest to what I was looking for.
I was looking at the KZ forend, but heard accessories fit loosely on the rails sometimes.
So, I"m interested in what i think is the Isreali made FAB polymer forend for the Benelli M4.
Anyone have pics or opinions?
Pulled the pistons out and cleaned both of their respective housings. (Both pistons are hard chromed to be easy to clean and show carbon/fouling much more easily than the black original pistons). Contrast in color makes it much easier to clean missed areas and visualize fouling.
I want to clean the ports from the barrel to the pistons.
It's clear the pistons "scrape" the opening of the ports that enter into the piston area. That is the very walls of where the port intersect the housing for the gas pistons.
But nothing cleans the body of the port holes. The actual raceway of the gasses.
I'm talking in between the piston scrapers and the barrel. It's probably 1-2mm length of area.
That's the area I want to clean. I know it's not necessary. That's not what I"m asking. Just asking if anyone has found a way to get into the area.
Is there any thing that and fit into the B. M4 gas port holes?
I did the bore snake and brush and mop on the barrel and cleaned everything else in detail.
But want to run something through the gas port holes.

Your set-up is almost like mine..........ha ha...........
I like it where my fore grip hand middle and ring finger actuate the momentary on and my pinky actuates the constant on.
