TCS - O-RING CLEANING JAGS

Okay, I bought a TCS O-Ring cleaning jag for .38/.357 several years ago. At first I didn't like it and left it in my box of cleaning bits and pieces for a long time. I ran into a really dirty and leaded up S&W M52 semi-auto pistol and I was almost ready to give up and haul out my Lewis Lead Remover when my eyes laid on the TCS O-ring cleaning jag. I thought what the heck and hauled it out of the box and gave it a go on my one piece Brownell's cleaning rod. It was really tough getting it thru the bore because of all the fouling in it including lead deposits. I was shocked at how much junk came out of that barrel. Carbon, lead and almost a kitchen sink, but the TCS jag came thru. Now I won't say it was a one pass deal. The barrel was just too crudded up for that, but the jag got the majority of the junk out and then I switched to a Tuff-Brush and worked the barrel and switched back to the TCS jag. I put some Nitro Solvent on a patch and pushed it thru the barrel and let it sit overnight and the next day hit the barrel again with the TCS jag and wet patches and it was absolutely clean! I was amazed at this product. Be advised it can be tough going with a TCS jag going thru a really dirty barrel and I needed serious pressure on the cleaning rod, but it worked and worked very well. Since then I have purchased a bunch of these TCS O-ring jags for other calibers and they all work well. Just be careful with the smaller calibers and don't allow the patch to get jammed between the bottom of the jag and barrel. I wish I had figured out how to use my original TCS jag when I first bought it, it would have saved me a lot of cleaning time. Rick H.

Performs well

Really like how it works. I have used it several times and it has a tight fit and works well with my patches in getting the gunk out.

I think it fits the barrel better and takes less patches

This O-ring jag is the best for shotguns. Wet a patch place it at the muzzle and push it down the barrel!!
