Here is how to clean your shotgun barrel real well... Some guy told me about this and I though he was pulling my leg... But I tried it and this is an excellent way to clean your shotgun barrels....

Yup - I know what your thinking -- You've got to be kidding right?....
But this actually works better than you can imagine --- No more running expensive patches down the barrel again and again to get it clean.......

Take off the forearm and dismount the barrels. Use your solvent and patches on the receiver to get it clean. Take out the chokes if it has removable tubes and clean them. Put oil in threads of choke tubes Use solvent and nylon brush to clean barrels from the breech end. Run some patches with solvent through to take out any loose crud that is remaining. Couple more patches to sop up remaining solvent. Use bore mop to put some oil in the bores. Put tubes back in barrels. Oil the receiver. Remount barrels. Oil the rest of the outside of shotgun. Put forearm back on. Put gun away till you use it again.

Use Coffee filters soaked with Hoppe's Number 9 bore solvent. They work great.* Use a Bore Brush on the end of your cleaning rod first, then the bore solvent afterward.* Walmart has reasonably priced Gun Cleaning Kits you can buy.*

push a patch down the barrel's with cleaning solution, let them sit 5-10mins scrape with a 12ga bore brush, push a clean dry patch through the barrel's, continue until the dry patch comes out clean.

I agree with METROPOLIS1.
A tampon works very well. Just make sure that you use the regular kind. The other 'types' are too small and too large. Sure as hell saves time instead of having to use tons upon tons of bore patches.
See... if it weren't for us girls, yall guys wouldn't have nothin to clean yall's shottys with :P (gotta joke some)

I would try bluing it without removing the old bluing. Make sure you get all of the oil off of the metal to be blued and make sure that you don't get any oil on the metal to be blued. Bluing is similar to rusting and oil will prevent the bluing from converting the metal.

use gun oil and a stiff rod to push clean rags through. Double barrels are great for practice because the action is always clean, so the only thing you need to clean is the barrel.

Very carefully. Buy a cleaning kit and do as it tells you.
