"Okay, so here is our barrel, here's our forearm and we've separated it from our receiver and the rest of our shotgun, but this is actually two pieces and a lot of people feel that they be hurting the firearm if they take these two apart, but these are made to come apart. This forearm is just slid in to a ring here that's attached and welded on to the barrel and you just pop that forearm right off and here's our forearm right here. So we have our forearm and we have our barrel separated at this point. Now at this point I just look over my forearm here and I like to make sure that there's not a crack in it because this is a synthetic material, it can come under a lot of pressure and we tend to give it a lot of extra wear because it's not wood. So I'm going to look around. I'm going to be looking for problems in my wear and advantaged timber Teflon coating and you can see a little bit right here. Shotguns had a lot of use, a lot of field use and I don't see any cracks and that's a good sign. So I'm just going to look at my barrel real quick since we just disassembled the two from the one to the other and I'm just going to take a look at this ring because this ring is where our forearm meets to the barrel, so that's looking pretty good. So the next thing I'm going to do is I'm actually going to wipe this down because I can see a little bit of extra grit here. I'm actually just going to scrape it off real quick because we're going to get it a little bit later with a cleaning process. Okay, so the next thing we're going to do is we're going to get our break free and we're going to wipe everything down with our break free."
