Here is a quick shopping list of things you will need to clean your gun(s) effectively.

1. Squeezable dropper bottles
   • Good for applying lubricants and copper removers
2. Spray Bottle
   • Very useful for applying cleaners like Simple Green.
3. 6 Pack of toothbrushes from Dollar Tree
   • Good for cleaning bolts and slides.
4. Slip 2000
   • Good lubricant, non-toxic
   • There are lots of good lubricants out there, this is one that I have had good results with.
5. Hoppes Elite Field Cleaner
   • Solid non-toxic cleaner
6. Simple Green Extreme Aircraft and Precision Cleaner
   • Safe for Alumninum alloys and plastics and non-toxic
7. Hoppes Copper Terminator
   • Good for removing copper fouling
   • Apply to a patch or boresnake with a dropper bottle
8. TW-25B Grease
   • Grease is different from lubricant in that grease generally stays in one place while lubricant “splashes”.
   • Please consult your owner’s manual to see if grease or lubricant is recommended.
9. Hoppes Bore Snake
   • This makes barrel cleaning a lot easier.
   • Wash them with soap and water by hand as opposed to using the washing machine
10. Otis Cleaning Kit
    • Very handy and portable cleaning kit
