F) All external surfaces should be wiped down with a light coat of rust preventative.
Avoid using too much oil as powder, dust or other foreign material may get
trapped in the oil. This could lead to congealed deposits which may interfere
with the safe and reliable operation of the semi-auto shotgun.
G) USE CAUTION while using solvents in gun bore cleaning. Prolonged or excess
contact with solvents can damage the gun’s bluing and finish. Be sure to
wipe away all excess solvent and then lubricate with oil.
H) A gun should be cleaned after firing. In addition, external parts should be
wiped with an oiled cloth after handling. A light oil is ordinarily all that is
necessary in cleaning if the gun has not been fired or fired very little. If a gun
is used frequently, it must be cleaned after each firing and regularly serviced
by a professional gunsmith. If the gun has been
stored, remove all excess oil and/or grease before
firing. Always check to be sure that no cleaning
patch or other obstruction remains in the bore or
chambers before firing.
Figure 38: Pictures the two holes in the barrel gas
porting ring which must remain open and clear for the
shotgun to function properly. Make sure these two
holes are cleaned after each use as well as clean the
barrel gas porting ring.
Figure 39: Pictures the gas piston assembly on the
magazine tube. These parts must be cleaned and
lightly oiled after each use.
DANGER – AMMUNITION WARNING
Firearms may be damaged and serious personal injury or death to the shooter or
bystanders may result from any condition which contributes to the generation of
excessive pressure or uncontrolled release of gas within the firearm. Such adverse
conditions can be caused by bore or chamber obstruction, propellant powder
overloads or by defective, incorrect or improperly loaded and assembled cartridge
components. Even the strongest firearm can be blown up as a result of excessive
pressure. It is extremely dangerous to use a cartridge whose pressure is greater
than that developed by cartridges loaded to industry standards.
AMMUNITION (CARTRIDGES) NOTICE
We specifically disclaim responsibility for any damage, personal injury or death
occurring in connection with or as the result of the use of European American
Armory Corp. semi-auto shotguns with faulty, nonstandard, remanufactured, hand-
loaded or reloaded ammunition, used cartridges or cartridges other than factory
cartridges for which the firearm was originally chambered.
