  • Patent number: 8677671
    Abstract: A planar triangular patch for cleaning firearm bores. The patch has similarly sized notches placed centrally along the edges of the patch, permitting a level of pleating as the patch is inserted into a firearm bore and wraps around a jag. The patch is made of a material design to clean and preserve the interior of a firearm bore and applies uniform pressure against the bore as it presents the face of its longest radius to the bore interior, cleaning the entire bore simultaneously.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8146284
    Abstract: A combination brush and jag (100) comprising a stem (14), a set of short bristles (62) having a first transverse diameter (61); a set of long bristles (64) having a second transverse diameter (63); the set of short bristles (62) and long bristles (64) positioned adjacent to each other and secured in between the stem (14); and a patch (71) to cover the set of short bristles (62). The first transverse diameter (61) is smaller than the second transverse diameter (63). The first transverse diameter (61) is also smaller than the bore diameter 1 or 8 of a bore (73) so as to define a circular gap (3) approximately the size of the thickness of the patch (71).
