hi all im looking for good cleaning kit for pistols and rifles that wont break the bank...thanks

Get the Otis tactical kit. It uses the pull through system and has cleaning rods for .22, centerfire pistol and centerfire rifle with loops and brushes for all common rifle/pistol cals and 12ga shotguns. Even has other goodies in the kit which is all kept in a small and convenient nylon clamshell case that you can keep in your range bag.

 

Here's the kit but i've seen it at shore shot, cheyenne, dicks, and plenty of other places.

+1 on the Otis kits. They have videos on the website http://www.otisgun.com that shows you how to use their cleaning system

If you shoot frequently and clean frequently throw away the kit and put together your own. For rifles a Tipton 1pc carbon fiber rod is a must. The jointed rods are junk and will wear out a bore with a quickness. I prefer Montana extreme jags and cheap brushes. Patches I like the cotton ones in bulk from midway. Solvents I like M-pro7, sweets 7.62, and ballistol. These are the only ones I use. I have used almost every solvent on the market and those are my favorite. As for oil I like mobil 1 synthetic 30wt or Hillary Clinton Lube. Hillary lube is mobil 1 mixed 50/50 with remoil. Other than the rod all of the above will fit in a 30 cal can. It all comes down to how much you clean and how anal you are. I can say before I begin to clean the gun goes in the sink and gets a scrubbing with Dawn. Like I said it is just a matter of how anal you are.

+1 on the MPro-7. Wife/GF approved!
