AR-15/308 AR LUG RECESS CLEANING TOOL Reviews & Ratings

This one of a kind tool is used to clean the lug recess area on the AR-15 and 308 AR rifles. The lug recess area collects a lot of grease and debris and needs to be cleaned regularly. This tool compresses a cotton roll and then releases it so you can rotate it inside the lug recess area. Should be used wet with solvent, then followed up with a dry roll. One bag of cotton rolls, about 50, is included with each tool.

Broken handle
Nice idea, but the plastic handle that turns the cleaning end broke...the easy solution would be to make the rod longer and just make a bend on the turning end making the rod one sturdy piece...i probably threw this out years ago but since brownells owns sinclair i should have returned it for a new one....
