4 Reasons Why Cleaning and Maintaining Your Shotgun Is Important!
1.) Longevity - Simple maintenance and cleaning can make sure
your gun will last for generations.
2.) Cleaning and maintaining your gun will help you learn about
how the gun works. You'll learn how the parts interact with
each other.
3.) Learn to Lubricate Your Gun. More lubrication is not always a
good thing when you're maintaining your gun. When the
moving parts of your gun have too much lubrication there will
be some issues such as excess dirt build up.
4.) Safety and Reliability - After you've used your shotgun
, you should always clean it so it's ready to function perfectly the next time.
Steps to Cleaning;
A. Make sure the firearm is unloaded; disassemble to clean the different parts of the gun.
B. Clean the inside of the barrel with a bore snake or cleaning rod and gun solvent, Crud Buster works really well.
C. Wipe the outside of the barrel with a light oil, we recommend G96.
D. Lube or grease. G96 Gun Treatment works well for areas where that is required
( this will depend on the type of shotgun you are cleaning )
E. Use a light oil on the barrel and receiver which will help prevent rusting, with the G96 Gun treatment .
