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.

Well, where do "we" get one Q?

These work really well also!

Excellent! Ordered.

Thanks Q.

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.

Brownells has them.

Ok thanks. Just ordered from Brownells.

Just ordered from Amazon link. My gun cleaning life is just about to improve dramatically. Thanks guys.

Glad you like it. Sure makes cleaning easier. I ordered mine from Amazon.

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..

Thanks for sharing, I ordered 4. Gonna pass them out to friends.

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.
