How to Clean a Wrist Watch

Wrist watch

 

Many people think that wearing a wristwatch is old fashioned, especially these days when everyone has a cell phone. As for me, I never wore one because I could never find one that I liked. That was until I got older. It was then that I realized I had just been looking in the wrong place. For pretty much everything. I had a friend who worked at a jewelry shop, and it was at this jewelry shop that I saw the first watch I had ever coveted. It was expensive, even with the Friends & Family Discount. But, you see, I have expensive taste, but it’s not like it was a Rolex or anything. Regardless, I caught a lot of grief from my parents. It’s funny how your parents can still say something to you that makes you feel like a little kid. Maybe not funny ha ha, but funny sad. Anyway The best way to clean a watch is going to begin with reading my article so get to it. 

How to Clean a Bolt-Action Rifle

They say that nothing can beat bolt-action rifles for accuracy. But for what they lack in accuracy, semi-automatic rifles make up in sheer number of bullets fired. But, as my father and perhaps your father told you, “If you make the first one count, you won’t need a second.” My dad also told me “bullets aren’t free.” That is especially true these days as the price of bullets has gone way up. I thought my dad had lost it when I saw the thousands of rounds he has stockpiled around the property. But I can see his point. Sorta. At least I will know where to go when the zombie apocalypse is upon us. Read the full article “How to Clean a Bolt-Action Rifle

How to Clean a Pump-Action Shotgun

The pump-action shotgun is perhaps one of the coolest guns ever. The only exception may be the sawed off, but those aren’t always exactly legal. The pump is one of the guns that I would definitely want to have when it comes time for the zombie apocalypse. It is versatile and extremely effective at relieving zombies of their brains. Of course I would also want a couple of pistols and a bat, but I think I’m getting off subject. There are other uses for pump shotguns, like hunting birds, which is fun and rewarding. Duck is a tasty critter. But one often overlooked component of shotgun ownership is cleaning it at regular intervals, primarily when it’s been fired. This article attempts to break down shotgun cleaning into 8 steps, which include tips on the most useful tools to use. Gun cleaning is quite simple with the proper tools. In fact, it only takes a few minutes to fully clean your gun. Continue reading and see for yourself.

How to Clean a Lever-Action Rifle

I have been using the lever-action Marlin 30-30 for 15 years now, and it is still in great shape as you will see from the pictures - once you read the article. I don’t know if it’s just my gun, but these puppies are heavy. I got my first 30-06 this year and that thing is way lighter than this. I think it’s the weight of this gun that appeals to me. Its projectile will plow through brush, whereas it seems the 30-06 can be deflected by the tiniest things, like a leaf for example. But they are both tools, both with an intended purpose, and both must be clean in order to perform properly, so let’s get to cleaning the lever-actioned rifle

How to Get Rid of Pores

While we should all be most pleased that our skin has evolved with such an efficient way to keep itself clean, waterproofed and relatively free of infection, we aren’t. Many of us, despite how efficient they are, harbor a great desire to get rid of pores. For us, you see, it seems the main purpose of pores is to sit there on our faces, collect as much crap as they possibly can, and try to out-compete neighboring pores in an arms race to see who can appear to be the largest and most feared of all pores. Big pores are, in the most simplest of terms, a pain in the ass. They’re quite noticeable, clog easily, and make us self conscious. Thus, getting rid of big pores, or at least reducing their appearance, becomes a priority. Luckily, getting rid of clogged pores and reducing their appearance does not require the use of atomic weapons. In fact, the best thing you can use to get rid of large pores is a gentle hand.
