My Otis cleaner is JAMMED TIGHT. I used 2 patches and some MiliTec-1 fed it from the breach pulled it and now it's jammed in there solid...What do I do??? edited to say--->DON'T I FEEL STUPID! |
| Happened to me. It sucks when it happens. You'll probably need to pour lube down the barrel and pull insanely hard. I ruined a cable(Had to) this way by wrapping the cable around a nice piece of pipe for added pulling power. It'll probably be the cleanest your barrel ever has been when you're done though. |

This may sound dumb, but...for years I have used a piece of grass trimmer string to run patches down the barrels of my Garands and M1A's.....cut a piece...light 1 end with a match to form a small round ball so the patch won't fall off...cut the other end on an angle with some wire cutters so you can pierce a patch and there you have it....usually works best with 2 patches on there.... Nice thing is you can roll it up and carry it in your pocket or buttstock to the range... make a bunch of them so you never have to look for the one you just had...etc...just a thought |
I have Bore-Snakes for every pistol calaber I have...I placed an order .223 and .308 but it take a few days to get here. |
