Nice but cumbersome to use

Purchased to clean my shotguns of the built up plastic in the bores using Eds Red. My rod arrived with a slight bow in it but in a very heavy cardboard tube which was not damaged. I can only sumize that the rod had a slight bend in it from the factory and is almost impossible to get straight. I use two hands to use it with one holding it from beating the chambers up when I spin it. Unfortunately I did not open upon arrival and took several months to do so thus too late to return. This is a tools that you need if you shoot alot of modern shot shells with the plastic wads and shot cups as that plastic will build up in the bores and must be scrubbed out with a rod and brush such as this one.
