Speed up the process
Boresnakes have been around for a long time, but it still amazes me at the number of people that aren’t aware of them. The notion of needing a long rod to clean your rifle bore is so out dated. I guess it’s mostly the guys that operate the AR15 type of firearms that really pay attention to how much time it takes to clean a rifle that they are the ones that don’t want to go through the hassle. The only way around not needing to clean an AR15 so much is to swap your upper out for a pistol version.
Hoppes boresnakes are easy to store and use. All you do is drop the metal end down the chamber and putt it out of the barrel at the other end. If you clean a lot, you will want to wash your boresnake, but you don’t have the mess of cleaning patches that cleaning rods create. The Hoppes Boresnake will brush and swab your barrel in seconds. You may want to soak the chamber or barrel with cleaning solvent before you drop the boresnake in, especially if you are cleaning for accuracy.
