NOTE: THE GOLD SHOTGUN IS DELIVERED WITH THE MAGAZINE ADAPTER IN THE MAGAZINE WHICH LIMITS THE GUN TO THREE SHOTS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH FEDERAL MIGRATORY BIRD LAWS. IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR GUN TO BE LIMITED, MERELY TAKE OUT THE THREE SHOT ADAPTER AS EXPLAINED ON PAGE 16 UNDER "THREE SHOT ADAPTER." INITIAL CLEANING Various exposed metal parts of your new gun have been coated at the factory with a rust preventative compound. Before assembling your shotgun, clean the anti-rust compound from the inside of the barrel, receiver and the action-chamber areas. Browning Oil is ideal for removing this compound and for giving your new gun its first lubrication. However, any quality gun oil may be used. Clean the barrel using a cleaning rod and patch as explained under "Cleaning and Maintenance Suggestions" on page 25. 9
