How Many Times Can You Reuse A Gun Bore Mop?
BY Herschel Smith
Every once in a while, reddit/Firearms has a good question come up. It isn’t often, but sometimes one will catch my eye.
Can they be cleaned or are they disposable? Just asking so I don’t wind up buying mops every time my 22 or shotgun turns those fibers black.
To which he gets this reply.
I reuse mine. I just hose it down with canned gun cleaner or non-chlorinated brake clean.
I like bore mops and use them heavily when cleaning. They’re far more efficient than running a patch through the bore 1800 times.
However, I would suspect that repeated application of a solvent to clean the mop would begin to disintegrate the mop fibers.
