gun cleaning supplies

Post by smith45 » Sun Jan 02, 2011 12:43 am

How common are gun stores in India, and how often do they sell gun cleaning supplies ? How often do Indians buy inexpensive kits, or how often do they also separately buy brushes or bags of patches ? Does anyone have an estimate of the Indian gun-cleaning sales versus the Australian gun-cleaning sales ? We are considering expanding a product line to India, and we need a market estimate.

I like hoppe's #9 and keep a decent amount of it. transmission ATF fuild makes a great bore solvent. Also, I know several old timers that only use WD-40.

I use mobil 1 motor oil for gun oil.

I do not copper clean often. But, have some.

Keep some spare brushes, mops, and plastic jags around.

Boresnakes do great! I use them to tidy up a bore during the day at the range. Roughly 50 shots to 1 boresnake pass on centfire. Roughly 150-200 shots between the 22lr's.
