Thank you. I picked up some scotch brite pads at Walmart, cuz they didn't have chor boy or brass wool. But that stuff is steel. Our little magnet would attach to it.

I didn't get a chance to go to a hardware store.

I had my 3 revolvers out today to clean them and I was looking real good at the barrels with one of those light gathering plastic thingy thing. That acts like a fiber optic sort of. A tube... Anyways... I can't really tell if any of my guns have lead in the barrel. There were a few spots on the colt where it looked a tiny bit pitted and not perfectly smooth. And maybe that's lead..... Then my model 19, in the grooves, there are tiny little grooves that are like perfectly in line with the rifling. Not sure if that's lead either. I need one of them brushes you are talking about to give it a few passes to be sure.
