These instructions can be used by people who are unfamiliar with cleaning their shotgun. A Universal Gun Cleaning Kit can be used to clean almost any pump shotgun. However, there may be a different procedure for some pump shotguns. In general, this procedure will take between 10 and 15 minutes.

Materials

Listed are the materials needed for cleaning your pump shotgun:
  • A place to work. (Outside would be an ideal place so that the oil sprayed on your gun does not get everywhere.)
  • A Universal Gun Cleaning Kit
  • Rem Oil
  • A towel to prevent scratches on your gun from concrete or other rough surfaces.
  • A lot of paper towels
  • A soft cloth
