gun cleaning
I have a few questions about cleaning my new shotgun as this is my first gun. First of all I read that I need to clean the barrel right out of the box to make sure its clean. It said I'm supposed to use a patch with solvent on it. I noticed patches made of cotton and flannel. WOuld either kind work or is does one of the fabrics scratch the barrel or something. Thanks for the help. Like I said this is my first gun, so any help is appreciated.
