Frankford Arsenal tumbler

Post by MUP »

Good gracious alive! I now see what I've been missing, if only for a short time! This SS media tumbler is the cat's meow! This was some very dull and even some corroded brass that I ran for just 1 hour in my new SS media tumbler. I think I'll be using my dry tumbler for just that from now on...drying. :D

And they're the same inside and out!

Wow! They're spotless! I need to try that. I just have a vibratory tumbler and use either corn cob media or walnut.

It'd be nice to not have to clean media out of flash holes.

The SS pins are .040" dia and about 3/8" long. They clean inside and out and even clean the primer pocket like new!
