So... Right now, the guns I have are .22's and .30 calibers. Now, I've purchased a couple shotguns. One being a single shot 20 gauge (CBC model SB) and now a Mossberg 500 All purpose in 12 gauge.

I've also been looking at a number of other things in different chamberings, and buying a kit for every caliber range is going to get expensive. And so, I seen this Otis Elite kit. It says it does everything from rifles/pistol .17 to .50, Shotguns from .410 to 10 gauge, Muzzleloaders, etc. It also says it comes with bronze bore and chamber brushes ranging the bore diameters I mentioned.

Apparently, it has things to clean optics as well. It also comes with misc tools for, I guess scraping, etc...

So I'm wondering... Good solvent/oils aside... Will this get the job done as well as a rod? The appeal is with a gun like the Marlin 795 not having to be cleaned from the muzzle end, or at least one of the appeals. Overall, it seems to be a very good set and has good ratings across the board. Does anyone have any experience with this cleaning kit?

Thanks a lot!

I swear by it. It is a one stop solution and I greatly prefer the easy to store cables versus bulky and easily damaged rods. The breech to muzzle system is, at least for me, a no brainier. I use this in combination with Froglube and I'm a very happy camper. Covers me from .22 to .45 plus my AR and 12 gauges.

Amazon has it for about $110 which is a solid deal.

I've used the Otis system for years. Perfect for simi-auto's and lever actions! I even use it on my bolt guns. Bore guide?? Who needs them!!:D

I have a Large Otis M4/M16 Military Tool Kit & the tactical kit. "I love both of them" and they work great. I used up my otis oil and patches a long time ago, but now keep CLP in eye droppers and rig/ cut & punch standard GI patches for both kits. I clean all of my guns with my otis kits, pistols, rifles, shotguns, and I beieve it was the best envestment I ever made.... I can't say enough good about them, I think the next one one my list is the even larger Otis Deluxe Military Elite kit. "I believe in them, simple as that".

Nice, nice. I've been considering it for a while. I think I'm definitely going to order it soon. Thanks a lot, everyone!
