I have always been the guy who hated cleaning guns. Those hard to reach cracks and crevices, those channels in the slides, man, I hate them. A while ago, member FishOn gifted me a channel cleaning tool, and let me tell you, that magic wand has converted me into a guy who actually enjoys cleaning them guns now, no matter how cruddy they are. So, thank you, sir FishOn, for making a chore into an enjoyable activity.

I got mine in April of 2015. I think they were just starting, and someone posted a thread about them.

They’re a great tool, and hold up very well.

I've been using plastic dental tools and a patch, but I just ordered one of these from the Amazon link.
Thicker than the dental tools and should provide a better one or two runs with a patch than the several dental tool patch runs.
Hopefully help cut down on my 30 to 40 Q-tips I use to clean one gun.. Big Grin

Thanks! I used to use the plastic mag disassembly tools that came with MecGar mags and a patch, then switched to the thin slide of the gun cleaning nylon “toothbrushes”, but I expect this will be a better way to drive a patch down the rails.

The Calbico tool was developed by a couple of Hokies, if I recall correctly. Wink
