Otis Technology .223/5.56 Gun Cleaning Kit (Select Your Style)

Absolutely the best AR cleaning kit I've found. Even including a star chamber cleaning tool and the unique BONE tool, this kit has almost everything necessary to clean an AR.Pros: Bone tool is great and makes this kit's price a great value. Chamber cleaning tool works well, and shouldn't go unused. Has all the other stuff you'll need. They include long and short cables, so if you've brought along a pistol too, this kit should still get your handguns up and running, too. The compact size is great if you're limited on travel space or weight. As usual, Otis products are gentle on firearms but tough on fouling, and a great addition to your gear. It's adaptability makes it easy to use for other rifles or pistols, too; just add the right sized brushes.Cons: No fault of Otis, but if this thing had Q tips, it would truly have everything needed, so I added those myself. The biggest downside to the Otis system is that you won't have a cleaning rod on hand to knock out stuck cases unless you bring one just for that or have another. On mine, the CLP tube leaked and got cleaner/lubricant over everything. While It only took awhile to clean, I just don't trust most factory containers to be safe in a range bag unsecured as much any more.All in all, great product! I'm sure mine will last for many years, and I know I've converted others to their legendary breach-to-muzzle cleaning system. If you run an AR but haven't already assembled a cleaning kit from scratch, you need this kit. Highly recommended.

This really is a great kit. It fits in my range bag easily and has everything i need for a proper cleaning. It's so compact Yet so effective. My only complaint is the instructions don't really tell you what each tool is for. You kind of have to watch YouTube vids to figure it out. I still have items in it I haven't used and I'm not sure how to.The BONE tool is pretty cool. It makes it easy to remove carbon from the BCG. There are a couple of pieces that makes cleaning the BCG really easy. From removing the firing pin couple to the bolt extractor. You screw them into the brassI bought the Otis brush and some pipe cleaners to complement this kit. I however am not a fan of the Otis cleaning solution as I found hoppe's and CLP to be more effective. I switched that with a tiny bottle of slip2000 and use that to lube stuff as needed.Also: super important. The patches that come with the kit are 2 inch patches. You can buy the 3 inch patches but Be SUPER CAREFUL how you pinch the patch. Try not to pinch to much fabric or the patch WILL get stuck in the rifle. Look inside your barrel and get an idea of the size. The kit comes with a guide for the 2 inch patch but it's super different for a 3 inch patch.It's a good idea to get a rifle rod to complement the kit. Believe me. Getting a patch stuck is almost impossible to remove without having a rod. I've gotten 3 patches stuck. The first time I took the rifle to a gun smith and in two seconds he popped it out with a rod. The 2nd time I stepped on the cable and pulled the upper with all my might. The 3rd time I used a rod and tapped it out. I've since ran about 65 patches (200+ swipes) and haven't had one stick. I make sure to always to tug on the patch to make sure it doesn't slip off; and that im using a patch that won't fall apart.Overall tho I'm happy with this kit. It's small compact design let's me take it everywhere and it has everything i need to properly clean my rifles

Like others have said this product isnt the one in the pictures there are two different products with the same SKU # on otisdefense and otistec websites. I ordered on the 28th of april got it on the 15th of may because it was out of stock and i believe they have started sending out a what they had on hand which is a revamped version thats sadly missing the T-handle , G2 mongoose brushes, clp oil, 8 inch flex rod. This has been reported to amazon and Otis. Customer service from otis was kind and said they would send me out the missing pieces. But do to the present world crisis things are taking longer. Ill update if i get them.I'm only going to report on the negatives. Now to the actual product i was sent #FG-556-MSR from otistec website not the older version being shown thats on otisdefense. I like this kit its quality well made the missing T handle has been replaced by a plastic handle that pulls the flex rods but cant be used to clean the bore it just spins and wont connected to any of the attachments. The bore obstruction remover has the T-handle hole in it you can stick something in there and twist but i would prefer not having to rig anything. So a negative on having to purchase another male rod to screw into the BONE handle and use it correctly. I had a spare but its long and i ordered one from the website to keep the compactness overall. Contact OTIS for any problems they are a really good company and they will sort any problems out. Overall its a worthy investment to store in your range bag if your into minimalist setups.Edit:The otistec 8-32 thread connector would have been a good add-on to connect the BONE tool with the female ended rod.Otis sent me the parts of the kit that were missing/removed from the one shown and the new version i am very grateful for their customer service.
