How to properly clean a 12 guage pump action shotgun

- This video shows the basic teardown and cleaning of a Remington Wingmaster 870, 12 gauge shotgun which should do just fine for the occasional shooter to prolong the quality of your gun. If you have gone out more than 20 times I would recommend a full teardown and cleaning.
Materials used:
-Moisture displacing lubricant (hopps no.9) keep parts moving and not rusting
-Gun cleaning solvent, (hopps no.9) dissolves grime, make sure to remove before applying lubricant
-Wirebrush with correct gauge size (12ga) and rod the length of the barrel.
-Square cotton cleaning patches
-Microfiber cloth
Optional materials:
-Tooth brush (standard and metal bristols) helps remove buildup
-Patch pusher
You should get in the habit of cleaning your gun after every use and before longterm storage. *For prolonged storage use more oil.

Just bought one, normally my dad teaches me all I need to know about guns but he passed, in October, so I appreciate the video
My condolences. The 870 in this video was passed down to me through 2 generations and I had to learn everything myself as well so I somewhat understand your position. Let me know if you have any questions
@@Kuj I will, thanks man!
Dang! Pretty intense music for such an innocuous task😜
You must mean God Awful Music.
You have a beautiful old Remington 870 Wingmaster, my first pump shotgun, bought it in 1975 ,magnum factory full choke barrel, bagged several Canada geese with her, best pump shotgun ever made.i like the poly chock on barrel nice touch!!!
Came here to learn how to clean my shotgun, I got that, and remembered how great the glitch mob is at the same time! Double win. Cheers man.
Thanks, Glitch mob was my favorite at the time when I posted this 7 years ago. Times have changed. Going to have to give them another listen though. Yup still great!
I always and will use Hoppe's cleaners patches cleaning kits and oils
ugh...next time scrap the music video portion and try a narrative explaining the exact process, solvents, oils, etc you are using step by step...pretty much a useless instructional video for any newbie out there trying to learn this. I'll give you kudos' for at least telling people to make sure the gun is unloaded though.
I mean, if you watched the video it wasn't needed.
Been meaning to clean the shotgun my parents were given when they moved to Texas in 98
Now that I’m 20 n had experience with guns they’re letting me clean it since it’d jam a lot
I'm always impressed how well most shotguns function even without proper cleaning. I'm surprised it is not all pitted up and rusting without being taken care of for 20 years. Glad they are letting you clean it an hopefully learning to do it for themselves.
So you start out treating the audience like babies, then at the same time you don't talk about the oils and sprays you are using and you miss about 12 steps like cleaning the action and outside of the gun both important to fight rust super important when hunting waterfowl
how come no field strip? what about all the fouling and carbon build up on the bolt or bolt carrier?
That's why he sprayed it and whipped it off
Great video! I found it very helpful. It was clear and to the point.
I was given the task of cleaning the shot guns at work. This video saved my life. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
what is ur job
ZERO lol, probably the most opposite of gun life. I'm a graphic and web designer.
justin kujawa oh lol I wasn't expecting that but ride on man
glitch mob for the win!
I use bore cleaner and also after passing through with patches I use a bore snake.
Are you kidding? This music is bad ass.
I like that he doesn't narrate any of the important parts
I'd give this video 2 thumbs way way up!!!!!!
Thanks! Feel free to checkout the 2019 updated version.

Thanks very much
Do you recommend using the wire brush, or is a patch with solvent sufficient? Thanks!
Sweet sound track
Very concise and helpful. 👍🏽
Hey thanks for the informative video. What was the spray you used? Was that gun oil? If so can I just used the regular hoppes liquid oil? Thanks man noob here
yup
Is it even nessasay to take out the bolt while cleaning. I do it everytime.
I would say it is not necessary to take out every time. I tend to take it out every 10th time I go out and have never had any issues. if your putting more than 150 rounds through it you may want to consider doing it then.
+fsirjyy147 the video should be titled "how to clean the barrell & chamber area of a 870" not "how to clean a pump shotgun" .....
Didn't remove the forend or clean the bolt/carrier, rails. Lubing the rails is one of the most important things to keep the action nice and smooth. Also punch out the trigger assembly, clean and oil. Clean snd oil the threads of the choke.
You cleaned it half assed! To clean it right you need to pull the bolt, bolt carrier and everything out of the receiver also! You don't have to pull out the firing pin and spring most times but that's part of a total cleaning job to!! It's all very easy to do and you don't need any special tools to do it!!
Just got my baby adding to my collection
Updated Version: th-cam.com/video/miM1c_OzAuk/w-d-xo.html With a full deeper clean and less *annoying music.
I still think this original cleaning method works well for a rudimentary cleaning but you should consider a full deep clean after 1000+ rounds or going out 10-20 times.
I know this guy. He offered to sell me a hummer behind Dairy Queen once. I thought he meant a vehicle. Shame on you sir
Thanks fou the laugh from canada
Great vid
1) You can use bore cleaner (hopps no. 9) on the entire weapon? You have to remove it as best you can before apply oil?
2) Is it recommended to use CLP or some other non abrasive cleaning agent on the rest of the weapon?
1.Yes you can you hopps no 9 on the whole gun but I'm using a solvent. remove it before applying oil as it is abbrasive.
2.I've switched from using hopps to CLP for the entire gun as you do not need to do the 2 steps with it and can leave a coat on the gun without issues. Also CLP is a better chemical makeup so it's less likely to gunk up or jam the gun after sitting.
@@Kuj Thank you for your reply man. That really helps! Just one more question: is there any NO NOS in the gun cleaning common knowledge world? Something similar to not mixing bleach with ammonia? What chemicals should be kept separate from each other?
@@jaimearviso4642 Glad to help. There really isn't anything like that with gun cleaning chemicals. The harsher cleaning solvents if not wiped-off after use can eat away at the oil you add afterwards making it less effective but that's about it. I would recommend just using CLP as a 2-in-1 for everything and call it a day. The only time to be careful is with some rather old guns that are Nickel plated. Certain cleaners can eat away at the Nickel but it's pretty rare to find any guns with it nowadays.
Thanks great info.
i would definitely be wearing gloves
Thanks for the tutorial, I’m now prepared for the next school term.
Changing furniture on a Marlin 12 gauge shotgun
Do you have to clean every single part. Or is it ok to clean just the barrel the receiver and the trigger.
Didn't really need the music.
Thank you!!
Wow that's it that seems reasonable. I am thinking about getting into hunting turkey maybe deer figured shot gun would be a great gun for both. But didn't want to have to spend a hour cleaning after each use but what was that 15mins that totally seems realistic.
Right on. I’ve got another video linked in the description with a full tear down. Only necessary after every 5-10 times going out in my opinion
this has a creepy, taxi driver vibe
I had a cold when I filmed this 7 years ago in my parents garage XD
What if there is some rust in the outside. I left mine by window and some how a day that it was -6 made my gun rust
That's unfortunate. If it is just topmost layer you may be able to get it off with a normal solvent and protect it a bit with the oil. Possibly find some additional anti rust material to spray on after that as well if it comes off. If it's really deep and the gun is worth it to you you may have to look into refinishing it with a professional.
justin kujawa ok thanx
Thanks for the video
Should you do this after everytime you shoot the gun?
YES!
I enhance gun from my father so need to learn how clean them.
Go to youtube type in the type of gun that you have and asked how do I clean my gun
I was cleaning my 12 Guage shoot gun but make sure I was doing it right.
No need to field strip to clean it?
What is the music..its keeping me tuned in ..good work on the shotgun
Animus Vox by The Glitch Mob! I had to make sure my music wasn't playing at the same time because I was just listening to it
thx thsi this help i havea fire arm of my onw this really helps!
Thank you
That a Fox Sterlingworth at the end?
The Turkish build is way simpler. Hey you guys. If your out of ammo Bellevue WA is hot spot 40 boxes of slugs highly overpriced.....but soooi worthbthe wait.
I think it's clean bud
Never point a gun at a camera unless you intend to shoot it!
lol, there's no one behind the camera no worries.
Why do we think that a video is better with hideous music? The background music is awful. The video would would be greatly improved by getting rid of it.
You sound like David Blaine
wo wo wo heeeeeeeeeeeeeeey dont point that at me. lol watch the video and at the end you will see what i was laughing about great video
Awesome
What is the song at 3:05 I have heard it but can’t remember please help it’s killing me 💀
Music is too distracting and sounds like track from a porno.
music is distracting
That’s the mf “Glitch Mob”, that song is more iconic than the cleaning of a mass produced pos Remington shotty. 💆🏻♂️ mf’s on this planet with me I swear...
From the "Everybody has an Opinion" club: Don't even have your ammo on the table. Paranoia? Maybe, but it costs you nothing to add a second layer of (crazytown) safety to what you're doing.
I can be paranoid too. Care to explain how having ammo on the table could be dangerous? I'm having a hard time imagining any situation it could accidentally fire and the shells aren't dangerous even if they fall off.
@@Kuj That's why it's "paranoia"! :-) It's irrational!
It's beyond unlikely, but I suppose if I were the careless type, I could absent-mindedly start loading the weapon. Beyond unlikely, but I like obsessively watertight safety measures. My day job could be described as "Professional Worrier" which means I sit around and concoct impossible scenarios of hopelessly outlandish strings of unthinkable coincidences lining up. Which they never, ever do. It's a lonely existence.
Thanks for the video!
@@tomwatson9032 Haha you're welcome. I've been in your position with the paranoia and as I'm sure you've heard before it's not worth it. The stress and tension made me physically sick. I eventually got over a good portion of it 4 years ago. I used to hear about 3 gunshots a week and we had multiple search helicopters every night in this crappy part of Phoenix I lived in.
I think the main thing for me was just accepting and taking on risks head-on. Bad things happen but they are not worth ruining your quality of life trying to constantly prevent. We have a survival instinct in us and at times it can take too much control.
That small sound outside might be a burglar, that could break in and kill me, but is it worth me going outside to check it every time? Make peace with death. I think I just accepted the fact that I could die, that it is fine, and a natural order to life. I sleep like a baby the whole night through ever since.
Also if you are paranoid about keeping your gun clean check out my more recent video with a deeper clean and take apart th-cam.com/video/miM1c_OzAuk/w-d-xo.html
U could said what u were putting on the rags and other places. Don't know what u used
I used Hoppe's in this vid. You can see the still frame at 0:22. I recommend CLP gun cleaner now as it gunks up less and is a 2 in 1 solution.
If you want a newer version of this video with a more full teardown I made one as well. th-cam.com/video/miM1c_OzAuk/w-d-xo.html I'ts only 4 years old vs this one being almost 10
I'm sure it's a good video, but i simply could not endure the music lol. I made it about 30 seconds.
Decent video until the end when he pointed the muzzle at the camera. I jumped! Even though he was nowhere near me in space nor time, it's still uncomfortable looking at the business end of a shotgun. I'd say that was bad form, fella!
Thank god you’re safe. Watch for signs of PTSD in the coming days and weeks. What a survivor!
So cleaning solven firat then lubricant until patch comes out clean, lube all metal surfaces and wd-40 the chamber. Check.
Once I hear annoying music I end the video and go to another.
No glove?
Volume control when you edit.
3:12 Yeah baby, harder, faster, ughhh, ugghhhhh
Damn that music is annoying
Does this work with most shotgun brands?
With most pump action shotgun yes
Is there a 12G cleaning jag available? Haven't seen one for sale.
@Christopher Marlowe I'm now using safariland's 12g bore jag.
When you buy a shotgun cleaning kit it usually comes with it!!
Love the music
was that bore cleaner you where using
Hoppe's No. 9 Gun Bore Cleaner
www.amazon.com/Hoppes-No-Gun-Bore-Cleaner/dp/B01HNKBMHO
However, I use Rem cleaner now as it is almost scentless compared to the rather smelly Hoppe's.

justin kujawa thx
Who's the dude in the video? Why no credit.
That's me from 2013 without a beard. 2019 version of this video here th-cam.com/video/miM1c_OzAuk/w-d-xo.html
What song is thid
What in the hell is going on with that music?
How often should i have to do that
Mariano Garcia after every use
Mariano Garcia google it
Best to clean it after every use to get the most life out of it.
I was taught that you cleaned your gun at the end of a day of hunting! Never wait till the next day to do it because I've seen rust starting to develop by the next morning!!
not sure about the music. :0)
This was actually for a class project which required a certain part of the instructional video be overlaid with music. It's not everybody's taste and I get that.
+justin kujawa What song is this? I like it
Matthew Mason If u go to a local bathhouse or gay nightclub, im sure you can find the song no problem!
West Coast Is that where you heard it?
Mathew Mason No the man in the video gave me a copy for slapping my ham while he watched. It was classy tho, we went behind Dairy Queen
Good video but the music is annoying as hell.
Haha, my music choices were not the best back in 2013
Newer version th-cam.com/video/miM1c_OzAuk/w-d-xo.html
music needs to go.
Just useless.. the how?
what is the song?
+kumiiyo Animus Vox - The glitch mob
nice. heard this in a porno before.
+kumiiyo That's my kind of porno
You fucked up. Always run your copper brush all the way out each end before changing direction. If you dont thenit will bend the bristles back and forth too much and they willbreakoff slowly
I've noticed this happen with cheap brushes. I've never had 1 bristle fall out on my better quality brushes I've had for over 10 years.
why don't you say what substance your putting on when and where? Is this supposed to be a how to video or an entertainment video...
I can't believe you had the audacity to name your video how to properly clean a 12 gauge shotgun but you didn't even properly clean it. How about taking out the bolt and trigger assembly you know like actually Field Strip it and clean it you should have named the video how to clean the barrel of a 12 gauge shotgun
Anyoying fn music
Omg that fucking music, can't watch video lol
You record this in a gay nightclub or thats just your music preference?
Both. How u know?
West Coast Why are you looking for a date?
Missy Army Veteran Forever! Yes but last army girl to polish my knob left a few blemishes (herpes). Her name was missy too.....hmmmm
