Not only that but it will rust up the firing pin and cycling piston for the semi-auto mechanics of the gun. A firing pin that stays out, is like slam fireing, been there done that, was scary as hell for a few seconds!!!
I think some of the sks's are chromed lined barrels so that will help a bit.
Windex cleans out the salt in the primer powder left in the action really well, but the ammonia will strip some varnishes and stock finishes like paint stripper.
