Cleaning your gun regularly is an important part of gun safety, reliability, and accuracy. It’s also an important factor in extending the life of your gun and protecting its value. Ideally, you should clean your gun after every use. A thorough cleaning at the end of the day with a gun cleaning kit will ensure that the gun works like it should the next time you shoot.

Factoring In the Elements

Cleaning your gun is especially important in moist, humid areas or if you shoot in rainy or snowy conditions. Extreme weather conditions can be hard on your gun, resulting in corrosion, moisture damage, rust, and other damage if you don’t take the proper steps to care for your gun. Always dry your gun thoroughly after use if there is any sign of condensation or moisture on the metal parts of the gun.

Preparing Your Gun for Storage

Special care should be taken to clean the gun and prepare it for storage before long-term storage. Storing the gun properly will help to protect it from damage; however, even during long-term storage, you should inspect, clean, and oil your guns every few months to keep them in the best condition.

Taking Your Gun Out of Storage

After a long period of storage, inspect the gun thoroughly and clean the bore before use. Always make sure the gun is unloaded before cleaning and all ammunition is removed from the cleaning area. Follow all safety procedures for cleaning your gun.
