Before cleaning or re-oiling a gun barrel you need to be familiar with the proper application methods.

These points include the slide assembly as well as the barrel's exterior. Avoid over-lubricating gun barrels as they can attract contaminants.
Kroil

After cleaning the barrel with the brush, remove the brush from gun. Next, make a cotton patch using Kroil. Then pass it through both the gun's chamber opening and the muzzle. It's time for the gun's barrel to be cleaned after the cotton patch reaches its muzzle.

How To
How to hunt wild ducks
The most common way to hunt wild ducks is to use decoys. It is best to use live decoys birds. Set them up far from your blind so that you can easily see them. Windy conditions are a bad time to hunt as the birds can quickly disappear. You should also avoid hunting with other hunters as they may scare some birds.
Make sure to count the birds that you intend to shoot when hunting wild ducks. You shouldn't shoot if you don't know the type of bird you are shooting. You should ensure that you have enough ammunition to kill as many birds as you wish.
If you do end with killing many birds you will want to clean the meat and prepare it before you eat. Because the meat dries quickly once it is cooked, it's best to prepare it immediately. Once the meat is cooked, remove any bones and feathers.
Wild ducks are most often found near water. But, sometimes, you can see them flying through fields or woods. Their flight patterns are more open than others, and they can be easily spotted from the ground. Keep your distance from wild duck hunters until you are close enough to take a shot. It means that you should remain quiet while waiting to get a shot.
