Thanks for all the replies, guys. Especially the encouragement toward whiskey as an "all around" cure. Taking it to heart, trust me.

Got this back directly in an email from Ballistol, for what it's worth:

"Hi,

Ballistol Multi-Purpose Oil is not registered as a drug or disinfectant, so we can not make any comments about the effectiveness on killing coronavirus. There are some international articles floating around on the web describing why Ballistol is a viable disinfectant for coronavirus, but again, we do not support these claims.

Best regards,"

I'll probably just stick to a good wipe down with some Old Granddad, and then a quick wipe with Ballistol!

Have a great day.

Wipe the entire firearm down with Ballistol. The components in Ballistol WILL kill all viruses, including the Chinese version.
About 10 of us old geezers shoot skeet twice a week. We all disinfect our hands and the target release control before we start and then again after we finish. Do not use alcohol and ESPECIALLY, do not use acetone unless you just don't care about the wood finish.
