Air rifle cleaning kits - why do
you need one?
The obvious one first. You go out, it gets wet. You don't
clean it afterwards and things start to get rusty and after a
while you notice that the action is horrible and your shots
don't go as far as they used to or penetrate as far. In short
you're rifle becomes a bit crap!
Simple pre and post use maintenance can solve this
easily and doesn't take long.
- Simply oil moving parts.
- Grease springs.
- Clean gunk out of the barrel.
For best results use products designed specifically for
rifle care. My favourite is the Bisley range. They do a great
set of brushes and barrel cleaners and another superb set of
mixed oils and greases that covers all the bases. Get one or
something like it.
Cleaning = More power for your
rifle
Not only does good cleaning take the danger of falling power
and range away - it can actually significantly improve it.
Here's a story from a customer of mine -
Fired a milbro Jet at the
yellow pages, and buried itself 450 pages.
U
sed the Abbey oils and greases, spring, trigger, lever,
sear, etc etc. and
the
Bisley barrel cleaning kit and apart from being much smoother
and quieter, got
up
to about 700 pages in the big yellow
book.
Nuff
said - So if you don't have, as they'd say in the US, a
"cleaning solution" then get one sorted out
quick.
