Summer has been flying by and shotgun season is right around the corner. Ask yourself, have you taken the time to prepare your shotgun for hunting season yet? Well, if you haven’t we are here to remind you now is the perfect time to start preparing for the shotgun season. Check out some tips from our experts at Nemo Arms on what you can start doing now to start preparing for the season.
Gather Your Gear
Regardless of how you ended last season, chances are when it was over you gave a deep clean to your gear and stored it away. You didn’t go through what you had, what you’re missing for next season, and definitely haven’t looked at it since. It’s best to find all of your gear and lay it out in one convenient location. Look at what you have, and see what you may be missing to make this year a success. If you previously weren’t storing your shotgun barrel in our Barrel and Stock Sock Set, you may want to consider getting one. This soft cotton flannel INTELCASE protects your barrel during storage and transportation to keep your gun in premium condition.
Clean Up
However you cleaned up your gear following last season, pre-season prep is an ideal time to give your gear that deep clean it really needs. With everything being in storage the past several months, take the first steps in starting out your season right by giving your gear the cleaning it deserves.
Determine what items need cleaning, and the appropriate ways to clean them. Once you know what you have to tackle, you can start scheduling your time to devote to getting everything in tip top shape before the season starts. There’s no better way to start out your season than with everything cleaned and ready for whatever's on your agenda. If you are in need of cleaning supplies to help properly clean your gun, check out Nemo Arms shotgun Cleaning Kits. We have them available for both 12 and 20 gauge shotguns.
Make Your List and Check it Twice
After seeing what you have and dedicating the time to cleaning it, it’s time to fill in the gaps on what you’re missing. Whether it’s replacement parts, upgrades to what you currently have, or just something new you’ve had your eye on wanting to add to your lineup, it’s time to start making a list of the products you need. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading your gun, it might just be the time to do so. If you’re interested in learning more about premium shotguns, check out our Nemo Arms shotguns on our website.
Heading into the season many stores will be running sales and promotions on the necessary items from your list. Keep your eyes peeled to make your list to see what you need to score over the weeks counting down to shotgun season.
Stock Up
Once you know what you need and where to get it, it’s time for the fun part. Start stocking up on the various tools to help make your hunt a successful one!
