The first step in cleaning a firearm is to always ensure that the firearm is unloaded. This is a crucial safety measure to prevent any accidental discharge while cleaning the firearm. Before applying any cleaning techniques or disassembling the firearm, it is important to double-check and verify that there are no rounds in the chamber or magazine. Once you have confirmed that the firearm is unloaded, then you can proceed with the cleaning process effectively and safely.
