Where do you get a bore snake for a AR?  Are they worth the money?

Just get a .22 caliber rifle Boresnake.  They are good for quick cleaning but not for a thorough cleaning.

+1.  Good for a quick cleaning at the range.  I still use a rod to do a thorough cleaning at home.  Also, still keep a USGI rod in your range bag in case you get a stuck cartridge case.  A BoreSnake won't help you with that.

Aboresnake also won't help you with getting rid of copper fouling. I love my borsenakes. I don't know who invented them, but I hope he is rich. he deserves every penny. Him and the Camelbak guy.
