Just got my new Uzkon AS46 pump. Beautiful gun..... very impressed with action and fit and finish. Just wondering, should I run some heavy loads through it for a break in or just the standard run of the mill shells?

Being a pump action would this help anything or be a benefit?
 
Coat it with baby oil and keep in a warm place for the first week.
Wipe it down and change the warm place to a warmer place with Beethoven playing softly in the back ground for another week.
After the second week, more baby oil and the sound of whales singing.
Should be good after that.

I like a good sense of humour!:cheers:

Oooooh - I wanna be a shotgun after reading this !!

Hey Op - if you don't drop your weapon (due to all the baby oil) after this - go out and have at it ....

You're not gonna break your baby using it for what is was built for.

I don't know how our soldiers made it without proper break in periods. When it was discovered that whales sing, everything was ok.
Beethoven was acceptable, but whales were the bestest.

Back to the girls thread! Woo hoo!

Don;t forget the virgin tears on all friction surfaces before storing it. Very important step.
 
It is a pump shotgun that you purchased, not a closet queen side by side that you display with your 200 year old violin.

So:
Buy a high quality recoil pad and the heaviest shells the gun is built for.
Pound those heavy loads through that gun until your shoulder is really sore.
If nothing breaks on the shotgun, go back to regular ammo.
If something is broken get a new shotgun.
