You can’t clean what you can’t see. This simple concept was the reason behind the new Spot-Light Cleaning Kit ($29.99). Three LEDs are embedded into the handle to help you find carbon in the most difficult-to-clean places within your firearm. The handle contains a variety of cleaning implements within.

Swab-its customers know that 9mm Bore-sticks are useful for cleaning bores. They’re also great for maintenance of hard-to-reach areas on firearms such as magazines, wells, and chambers. Recently, Swab-its completed beta-testing of bigger Bore-sticks in .22 cal., .40 cal., and .45 cal. They’ll be available in stores and from online sources the week of March 19.
