Question Re: First shots with CZ858

[emilio613]

I was just wondering, since this is my first gun...and it is brand new.

Anything I should do before I go and shoot the gun for the first time? Should I give it a thorough cleaning before the first round is chambered?

Or should I only worry about cleaning it very well when I get home?

I know its a bit noobish to ask, but I don't want to damage the gun in any way!

Thanks.

I didn't clean it before mine was shot the first time. Just a cursory check and then blamo

dont need to clean , just disassemble , wipe off the excess oil (including in the bore) and inspect then go have fun .

Pictures of your new toy?

But you surely need to clean it after.

there are some who prefer to conduct a pagan ritual but just prefer to shoot it

Hahaha eventually! I don't even know where to post them to? my profile? In this thread?

And yes, I will definitely clean it after..especially with surplus acid ammo lol

I always clean a new guns bore, You never know what metal particles etc from machining are left in there. If it was already clean, you have only wasted a few mins...

Well seeing as the factory shot it a few times (I have the target that came it) I think I should just clean out the bore and let 'er rip.

chamber a round and then look down the barrel to see if it fits.

Thats an idiotic thing to tell a first time shooter

Well...to be honest a) I am not a first timer (my uncle has shotguns and rifles, as do my friends), and b) I should have enough common sense to know that he is probably joking and it would be stupid to do so...

However, if he gives me his address, I will gladly bring my rifle, a few rounds, and let him do it for me.
