[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What Cleaning Rod For Locking Lugs?

Posted: 5/18/2007 3:02:19 AM EDT

Would anyone please suggest a good cleaning rod to get at the locking lugs in the upper receiver? I use an Otis setup to clean the breach and bore, but what type of T-handle rod is best for using the special bronze brush w/collar to clean the locking lugs? Anything with a handle on ball bearings, etc. won't work, because it prevents you from turning the rod clockwise to clean the lugs.

Thanks.

GI....... or you can come up with your own set-up. This is my DIY chamber brush set up. It consists of a section of aluminum cleaning rod and an x-acto knife handle. Also pictured is my GI set up.

I had an old handgun rod that I don't use any more. I dropped some loctite into where the bearings are, let it dry a few days and it works perfectly.
