Is it necessary to clean the chamber and barrel since there is no gunpowder?

I would recommend checking the owners manual. I know you have to be careful with petroleum products in the chamber.

Yes - clean it like a gun. The barrel needs lubrication. P.S. don't dry fire it. I accidentally did in my back yard and it sounded like a real gun fired, not to mention it's really not good on the compression seals. I love mine. Best powerful pellet gun ever - Not for minors though!!

Yes, but not as frequently. There are excellent videos available on YouTube that explain the frequency, method and different cleaning agents needed. Enjoy - great gun.

Yes, however, I tried different paintballs and they tend to get cut in half inside the barrel, so you have to clean it frequently.

Yes..the only thing you would have to do is cover the orange tip of the barrel.

As long as you use good litter no additional cleaning is needed. Shoot and conveyor stay clean.

Assuming you are being serious and not a troll. You never want to clean muzzle to chamber if you can help it. The risk is damaging the muzzle effecting the accuracy of the firearm. However with some revolvers this can't be helped so be careful.

If you don't clean them, they get filthy with carbon fouling and will leave some of this residue in the bores of your guns when used. I just hand-wash them in a sink with soap and hot water after every few uses.

When cleaning any firearm it is commonly accepted practice to run patches, bore snakes, ect. through from the breach to the muzzle whenever it is possible - the same direction the bullet or wad passes through the barrel. This way you aren't pushing the cleaner, powder residue, etc. into the breach.

Yes, with care. very small amount on cloth to inside of barrel will aid in reduction of friction as pellet is ejected. don't forget to oil the spring also.(keep magazine out until ready for use). hope this helps.

The barrel was clean as could be, i rinsed it out and added the chemicals which will kill any bacteria anyway.

Yes.... But don't recommend this barrel you need to clean it around evey 10 shots which gets annoying while be shot at . And it curves rapidyl in all directions if not cleaned

A couple of drops of Silicone Chamber Oil in the small chamber oppisite from where the pellets are placed, well keep the piston and seal properly serviced. This should be done after 1,000 or 1,500 pellets are fired through the rifle, but avoid over lubercation, because it will cause inaccuracy in the weapon by saturating the barrel with oil. Do not continuiously clean and oil the weapon. This practice is unecessary, and will adversly affect weapon accuracy and performance. When all else fails, read your weapon manual, and follow the manufacturers maintenance guidance.

I have not used it enough to see this happen, but I would imagine that it would not be good for them in the long run. I know you are not supposed to leave it in the barrel for an extended period because it will damage the steel. I can't imagine that a brass/copper brush would last long if not washed after use.

If you want to sanitize the surface it is recommended you hold down the trigger continuously but not needed just to clean. Also, I notice I am picking up the dirt if steaming and dries within seconds vs pushing dirty water around and wiping up.

I use both. After shooting, I use the foam as directed, then I use the liquid cleaner and let sit in the barrel BORE DOWN for 3-7 days. After that you will see bore residue hopefully on a towel or rag) indicating more fouling has been removed. After running two or three dry patches through the bore, I run a wet patch through and store bore down.

The squeegee does pretty much clean everything from the barrel, clean & shiny after you run it through. If I am storing the weapon for any length of time, I will run a patch thru after cleaning with a small amount of my favorite gun oil to leave a film on the inside of the barrel... Hope this helps!

No, it was very clean and sealed with screw in plugs on the top. But as with anything used to contain consumables, I would still just wash it with a little soap (dawn dish soap is what I used) and water. You just need about a quart of water and just move it around inside the sealed barrel. Then just rinse it out. It's easy to do as the barrel weighs maybe 20 pounds with the quart of water.

Could be several things. Let's start with the simplest, have you cleaned the barrel recently?
