Gun Cleaning Basics: How To Clean A Semi-Auto Shotgun

Otis TV

Carbon Score: 8.5

In this video Otis Technology Brand Ambassador, Steve Gould from Target Focused Life, explains the importance of cleaning your gun and why cleaning from breech to the muzzle is the preferred method of exhibition shooters like him. Steve also demonstrates the Otis 3-Step Gun Cleaning process that was pioneered over 35 years ago by the gun cleaning professionals at Otis Technology; as well as cleaning the choke tube, piston, bolt, as well as preventative maintenance for your semi-automatic shotgun. The cleaning methods demonstrated on Steve's Mossburg 940 Pro 12 gauge can be applied to your semi-auto inertia or gas operated shotguns, to clean the bore, choke tube(s), action, trigger group, and exterior of the firearm; to keep them looking like new and running smoothly for years to come.
