CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE SUGGESTIONS
PERIODIC OILING
Ordinary good judgment will indicate that the metal parts of the gun
should receive a light film of oil after the gun has been exposed to
weather or handling. Occasionally a small drop of light gun oil may
be placed inside the receiver track
on which the breechblock and
action bars ride during operation
(Figure 12). This will help to
relieve friction and ensure smooth
operation.
DO NOT POUR LARGE
QUANTITIES OF OIL INTO THE
ACTION. A LARGE EXCESS OF OIL
WILL RUN BACK INTO THE WOOD
OF THE STOCK AND CAUSE
SOFTENING OF THE WOOD, WITH
CONSEQUENTIAL LOOSENING
OF THE STOCK.
CLEANING PROCEDURES
The correct procedure for cleaning your BPS shotgun is as follows:
1
PLACE THE “SAFETY” IN THE “ON SAFE” POSITION AND LOCK THE
BOLT TO THE REAR. BE CERTAIN YOUR SHOTGUN'S MAGAZINE,
FEED MECHANISM AND CHAMBER ARE UNLOADED. ALWAYS WEAR
PROTECTIVE SAFETY GLASSES DURING ALL ASSEMBLY, DISASSEMBLY
AND CLEANING PROCEDURES.
2 Remove the barrel so that it can be cleaned from the breech end.
3 Using a shotgun cleaning rod with tip and patch large enough for
a snug fit in the bore, insert the rod and patch in the breech end of
the barrel and run back and forth through the bore several times.
Remove and wipe the Invector™ tube threads and barrel threads with
a brass or nylon brush, and lightly oil.
