Should this be the case, the barrel can be swapped out. Some hunters may want to modify its color in order to blend in with their surroundings. This is why models like the Encore Pro Hunter offer shades in blue or gray. Other parts to be replaced include the following:

• Magazine

No matter if it's the switchable Encore Pro Hunter or a semi-automatic, the biggest precaution is to ensure the barrel and magazine are completely clear of bullets.

And though it feels silly to wear them, make sure safety goggles are put on before starting maintenance on the weapon. All of these tips provide a safe environment so the owner can be ready for the next hunting season.
