German Army Gun Cleaning Wick Bundeswehr and 15 similar items

The German Army Gun Cleaning Wick is the genuine Bundeswehr-issue Reinigungsdocht that German soldiers have carried in their service cleaning kits for the G3, G36, MG3, P8 and other standard-issue weapons. Each wick is built from multiple twisted strands of 100% cotton, measures approximately 7 inches long, and is made to be threaded onto the loop end of a pull-through chain or cord, such as the RG34 chain or a modern Bundeswehr pull-through. Once it is wet with solvent the cotton swells slightly for a snug fit through the bore, scrubbing fouling out as it travels and then pulling free of the muzzle without snagging on the rifling. Because the wick is a multi-strand bundle, you can add or trim strands to match the bore you are working on, from 9mm pistols up through 7.62mm rifles and larger. It is a disposable, lint-free alternative to stacking patches on a jag: one pass carries solvent through the barrel, then the wick gets tossed, so you are not pushing carbon- and copper-loaded patches back through the bore. For shooters who prefer pull-through cleaning over rods, brushes and patch loops, this is the plain, field-proven tool that German service members have used for generations and that still ships in Bundeswehr kits today. Add a few to your range bag, your surplus kit or your cleaning bench, and you will always have a fresh wick ready the next time the bore needs attention. GENUINE BUNDESWEHR ISSUE - This is the standard German military Reinigungsdocht found in issued cleaning kits for the G3, G36, MG3, P8 and other service weapons, not a commercial lookalike. 100% COTTON, SOLVENT-HUNGRY - Soft absorbent cotton strands soak up bore solvent and carry it down the barrel, swelling slightly when wet for a tight scrubbing pass that will not scratch rifling. SIZED FOR PULL-THROUGH KITS - Roughly 7 inches long, each wick threads onto the loop end of a pull-through chain or cord, so you can scrub the bore clean in a single pass instead of running rod after rod of patches. FITS 9MM UP THROUGH 7.62MM - The multi-stranded bundle can have strands added or trimmed to match handgun and rifle bores from 9mm pistol up through 7.62mm and larger. DITCH THE PATCHES - Disposable and lint-free, it pulls free of the muzzle without snagging on rifling and gets discarded after use instead of loading up with carbon and copper fouling.
