Time For Care

Whether after a demanding hunt or a long day at the firing range – the time or desire to clean the gun as would be necessary right after its use is not always there. Nevertheless, if the user postpones cleaning and maintaining the gun until the next day in order to take sufficient time for the necessary care, it should be ensured that the gun does not suffer damage. To this end, sufficient Ballistol Universal Oil, GunCer or Gunex is put into the barrel from both sides and the gun is also wiped with some Ballistol Universal Oil from the outside. However, the user should ensure to position the gun with the barrel muzzle facing downwards and to place it in a small tray for the excess oil. Only a gun that is in good condition after maintenance may be placed in the gun cabinet with the muzzle facing upwards. The reason for this is that, otherwise, the excess, soiled oil runs into the breech and, in some cases, even into the wood and can cause damage there.

Everything In Its Place

Before the detailed cleaning and maintenance of the gun is begun, all necessary preparations should be made. All cleaning utensils and the necessary BALLISTOL cleaning agents should be at hand. It is recommended to spread out a soft, absorbent underlay – best case would be a special cleaning underlay made of felt.

Of course, for maintenance of your gun, it is a very good idea to use a gun cleaning box on which the gun can be secured. Alternatively, the gun can simply be placed on the cleaning underlay. Prior to this, however, the gun should be examined and its condition exactly assessed.
