How To Clean This Gun


Purchase a quality gun cleaning kit. Ask the sales person for a cleaning kit that best suits the weapon being cleaned. Rifle cleaning kits are similar to a pistol cleaning kit, yet the barrel cleaning rods differ.

Step2

Ensure that the weapon magazine is unloaded, and there is no round in the firing chamber. Failure to follow this simple first step could result in the accidental firing of the weapon and cause a very dangerous result.

Step3

Remove all ammunition from the area where the gun will be cleaned. Get rid of any shells or cartridges and place them in a secure location.

Step4

Prepare a well-lighted, clean and spacious work area. Keeping the table top clear of obstructions yields the best results.

Step5

Wipe down the weapon with a silicon cloth to remove any contaminants. Silicon cloths also prevent rust prints and the build-up of oils.

Step6

Clean the barrel with an appropriate gauge rod and cloth wrapped tip. There are numerous commercial barrel cleaners on the market that provide good results.

Step7

Rub a small amount of gun oil on a cloth and apply a thin layer to the weapon.

Step8

Inspect the barrel and bore for any fouling or deposits that may not have come loose during cleaning.
