The Swab-Its\u00ae Bore-Tips\u00ae garnered similar accolades at the following NRA Shows.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Superior to patches, Swab-Its\u00ae Bore-Tips\u00ae save time, are simpler to use than a patch, follow the rifling better, are reusable for multiple times, and easy to clean with soap and water or mineral spirits.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Swab-Its\u00ae has continued to develop more firearms cleaning products, from the initial launch of just two sizes of Bore-Tips\u00ae through 20ga shotgun sizes, and including Gun-Tips\u00ae, new products designed to clean parts outside of the bore. Based on extensive research with a wide range of firearms specialists, and feedback from an enthusiastic public, these new Bore-Tips\u00ae and Gun-Tips\u00ae are much superior to patches and any other firearm cleaning product on the market today.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I am sick of buying bags of patches and you may be, too.<\/p>\n<p>Randall<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Update:\u00a0 <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Swab-its has started a news website with firearms articles, gun safety, cleaning tips, and other cool information.\u00a0 Click here:\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/thinblueflorida.com\/?p=9689\" target=\"_blank\">Swab-its News, Talk, and Tips<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I saw Swab-its\u00ae brand Bore-Tips and Gun-Tips at SHOT Show this year.\u00a0 They are reusable firearm cleaning products Made in the USA.\u00a0 Some advantages to Gun-Tips are: \u2022 Gun-tips\u00ae foam swabs are reusable and replace cotton swabs. \u2022 Fiber free, does not shed or leave lint behind. \u2022 Perfect for cleaning and lubricating hard to reach places. \u2022 Available in a variety of shapes, sizes and packages. \u2022 Economical, washable and reusable, just like Bore-tips\u00ae. \u2022 Made in the USA.
