BarrelBuddy has released a technology it hopes will relegate the cleaning patch to the dustbin of history. A cylindrical piece of multi-layered polymer, BarrelBuddy soaks up your solvents and lubricants, then provides 360-degree contact with the bore, pressing squarely into rifling as it is shoved all the way down the barrel with a jag and rod. BarrelBuddy cleaning swabs are also disposable, meaning they won't track previously cleaned dirt down the barrel like a bore rope. The swabs come in seven sizes, to fit a variety of bores from .220 all the way to .770. For more information on this useful cleaning aid, which retails for $11.98, please visit barrelbuddy.com. Additionally, $5 of every order of BarrelBuddy will be donated to #22Kill, a non-profit founded to make an impact on the staggering number of suicides in the veteran community.
