Universal Handgun Cleaning Kit | Nylon Jags and Loops

Disclaimer: I was asked to review this product by Bear Armz. I purchased the kit and will get me money back. Although what I write is my own personal opinions after using the lot for a week. What did I like about the kit? Price, assortment of jags and brushes, tools, and the box it all fits in. I have cleaned about ten pistols with this kit. For the price, it had everything to clean my 22lr to 45LC. The provided pick and nylon brush helped me get into hard to reach places. The little bottle actually keeps my gun oil for leaking. The rod is two pieces and has the swivel handle. Able to be pushed through the barrel and ride the rifling. What I didn’t like about the kit is very minimal. At this price point there is very little to gripe about. But I do wish the copper wire brushes were nylon. I think the copper wire just wears out too fast. And the wire brush could be replaced with a second nylon one. The jags are a little long and I worry about them breaking if too much pressure is applied while not in the bore. And maybe having the rod coated. Like I said, my cons are pretty minimal and some are even petty at this price. Used wire brushes and jags for years. But I do think they aren’t needed in this kit and the nylon would keep newbies from marring up their guns. But I see this kit as a range cleaning kit, or a kit to keep in the vehicle. Although you could use it as a starter kit for a new shooter. Add some bulk patches, and an all in one cleaner/lube and you are set. I used this kit as a stand alone cleaning kit for this week. I had several pistols I needed to be cleaned. This kit handled them all. I plan on purchasing two more of these kits, when I get my refund for this review. The original is already set up with what I need for my 22lrs, I did that just before I wrote this. The next two are going in my range bag and truck. I will swap out the 22lr jags in them for extra 44 cal ones I have. Those will go to my 22lr dedicated kit. I will swap out the correct patches for the kits and fill the bottle with Pro Shot and call it good.

4.5 out of 5 stars. Great little handgun cleaning kit with a couple areas for improvement. The size of this kit is perfect! It can easily fit in a backpack or range bag. The case for the cleaning kit appears very durable and looks sharp with the Bear Armz Tactical logo on the top. I like that this kit has the slide latch to open and close rather than the flimsy flip open latches. This kit has the “necessities” for cleaning most handguns. The brass brushes provided seem very durable, after use I did not notice any of the bristles bending over. The brushes were not a tight fit in the barrel but did a good job cleaning out the debris in my barrel. I do think a more heavily used firearm would need a tighter fighting brush for a good clean. The brass rod itself seems very durable and showed no signed of bending or weak points when in use. The patches included in the kit are VERY thin but do an ok job of cleaning when doubled or tripled up. This kit includes an empty bottle for whatever lubricant or cleaning solution you desire. The wire brush, nylon brush and plastic pick tools are a nice touch. These tools also seemed durable and allowed me to clean the internals of my firearms without damaging any components. Overall I think this is a very nice kit It’s compact, it’s durable and very reasonably priced.

All in all this is a good kit. The case is sturdy and the bore brushes are sized correctly. The only issue is that the jags are nylon which may not last long if your patches fit snugly as they should. The slim end of the nylon brush is very useful for tight spaces. The kit is a good value for the money.

I recently purchased two of these kits. One to keep in my truck and the other to keep in the downstairs closet since my tackle-box full of cleaning supplies is kept in the garage. I really like this kit because of the small case which keeps everything organized and also how it contains everything you need, and nothing you don’t. I did swap the larger patches it came with with a bunch of my own smaller patches and filled the bottle with CLP which made it a perfect kit to maintain my carry guns at the kitchen table without having to bust out the big kit. I would definitely recommend these to friends especially for the price and think it’s a well thought out and delivered kit.

Wow, I was not expecting this to be so compact! Which is amazing, you can easily throw one of these in your range bag or truck. Heck even both. This comes with everything you need to be able to clean your handguns and the extension makes it possible to clean those with a longer barrel be it a pistol caliber carbine/ or brace pistol or your long-barreled revolver. Like all Bear Armz Tactical gear this is great quality for the price and it beats out others in the same price range easily. Those also features a sliding lock instead of a simple latch which means it stays closed unlike those cases with a flimsy latch. A+ for this product. I will be doing a video review on my youtube channel so search Jb's workshop on youtube for an in-depth review.

A one stop kit to keep my weapons clean and peotected from oxidation and powder buildup

It’s ok. The cleaning cloths are a weird material and do not do much in the way of wiping away dirt and oil. Those need to be replaced. So basically it’s a tool kit, no oil or cloths.

Simply put, I would buy again.
