About Gun Cleaning Kits & Accessories for Rifles, Shotguns & Pistols
Gun Cleaning Kits & Accessories FAQs
What should a full gun cleaning kit include?
A comprehensive cleaning kit usually contains rods or cords, bore brushes, jags, cleaning patches, solvents, lubricants, mops and snap caps—enough for at least one firearm calibre or gauge.
Can one kit work for rifle, shotgun and pistol?
Yes, many “universal” kits come with multiple brush sizes and adapters so you can switch between calibres. Just make sure the rod lengths and attachments match your firearms.
How often should I clean my gun?
It’s best to clean after every shooting session to remove residue and prevent corrosion. Even during storage, periodic cleaning helps avoid buildup of dust and moisture.
What are snap caps and why use them?
Snap caps are inert dummy cartridges used in dry firing, letting you cycle the action safely without risking firing pin damage. They also help with function testing during maintenance.
Are gun cleaning kits & accessories covered by guarantee?
Yes, all kits and accessories come with the manufacturer’s guarantee under normal usage. Please see the specific product details for warranty terms.
