minnesota1 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I'm curious as to what you use to get in there and clean them. I know most don' t do it, but I know I've gotten crap in there and was wondering if there's a special tool or device you use to clean one on your standard duck hunting non extended tube one and also on an extended magazine tube for shotguns. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AHI Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Standard bore mop . Sometimes I'll rap a patch around a brush. Go up one guage if necessary. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CharlieD Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Wad up a blue shop paper towel and push it through with cleaning rod. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RePete Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I use Tampax Super tampons and a bottle brush. I also use the tampons on the barrel. I got some funny looks from Police Officers when I cleaned thier shotguns at the station. I was theier Armourer at the time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Intel6 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I use my Tico tool, just like I use to keep my barrels clean. Been using mine for 30+ years and while it is a bit grubby it still works good, quick and easy. Tico Tool Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yeti Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Patch on a standard bore brush works nicely. A "super" tampon huh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rfeustel Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Brownells has magazine brushes. Or at least they did at one time. I use what I have after a soak in the tank with Prolix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Frankly Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Next time I’m at the grocery store I’m going to be spending way too long a time reading the labels of feminine hygiene products. Nice business opportunity for someone to repackage tampons and douche as “21st-Century Weapon Cleaning Products”! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
