Purchased one of the above and the damn "toothbrush" says made in China!  To top that off, the slotted patch tip is not even threaded and bent!.....are these current GI units or Chinese spin offs? Tapco is advertising these as original GI. Thanks.........

I would say all made in China. I looked in my latest Tapco mag and couldn't find the stuff you listed as 8448751. USGI kits are quality made stuff. Give tapco a email They are good people to deal with.If ya don't like it send it back with the return form you got with it. WD

Certainly doesn’t sound USGI.

FWIW - either Bushmaster or DPMS (I forget which) sells these type kits with a warning that some parts may be foreign made.

199,

      FWIW--Must be the DPMS cleaning kits.  I received (2) USGI cleaning kits from Bushmaster today with a barrel and a few other item and the cleaning kits were the same thing that I was issued in the Marine Corps.

Yep – DPMS.  (I checked just to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating. [:D] )
