Abstract
A portable, cable-based, caliber-specific cleaning kit having a cable attached on one end to a plurality of cleaning tools and on another end to an ergonomic handle comprised of a reel and cover, the cleaning kit being used for maintenance of gun bores. The cable is stiff enough so that a first end can be fed through a gun barrel and, after exiting the end of the barrel, can attach to the handle at an anchor site on the reel. The plurality of cleaning tools, which are attached to a second end of the cable, can then be pulled through the barrel by the handle and cable combination to clean and remove carbon and residue. After cleaning is complete, a user can wind up and secure the cable and cleaning tools to the handle, and the cover can compactly store the cleaning elements.
