We all, (well, I’m assuming something here about my readers) have our favorite guns, whether they are rifles, shotguns or pistols and we also know that they need to be cleaned every once in awhile! I’m probably the worst one for not cleaning my weapons on a regular basis and one day it will cost me…maybe it already has…I missed a deer and an elk this year…hmmmm.
Anyway, I received an email the other day from my friends at Smith and Edwards and they asked if I wouldn’t mind posting up a story about how to properly clean a rifle, by Eric Halter, one of the gunsmiths at Smith and Edwards.
I’m pleased as punch to share this with my readers and hopefully your rifle won’t fail you the next time you take it out hunting or to the range! Copy and past this in a new tab on your computer and read the great article! This guy knows his stuff!

Eric has been in the gunsmithing business for MANY years and if you need some service done to any of your weapons, he is your man! He even does that coating to guns called “Cerakote”…do you want to be invisible to the predators? Have your weapons coated with that stuff, and remember, don’t lay the gun down, you won’t be able to find it in the grass if you do!

Keep those guns cleaned!

Do you do any inlays in a stock of a gun, or if not do you know anyone that does them? I am looking to put a cross in the stock of my black powder rifle.

I do not put inlays in stocks, but someone reading this post might. I do have friends who have done them on their own rifles.
