Overview

Designed for 12 gauge shotgun maintenance, this patch holder is built to keep a cleaning patch secured while it is pushed through the bore. The sharp center post and spring fingers are described as pressing the patch uniformly against the bore walls for thorough cleaning action. It uses a nylon 5/16"-27 thread and measures 2-1/2 inches long, with two holders included per package. For hunters who want a straightforward bore-cleaning accessory, it offers a focused solution for routine shotgun upkeep.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Designed specifically for 12 gauge use, so it is not a universal patch holder for other bore sizes.
  • The 2-1/2 inch holder length may be less convenient for users who prefer a longer cleaning accessory.
  • It is a patch holder only, so it does not include patches or a complete cleaning kit.
  • Nylon construction and 5/16"-27 threading are specified, which means compatibility depends on matching rods and accessories.
