Cleaning guns with jags

Crazy. Thanks for this, ive seen them all my short life and have never really understood what they are for. Always just used a brush followed with the little loopy thing you slot patches into. Def gonna try these out next time, seems like theyll be quite effective

Thank you for explaining.

I for real thought they were for pushing out pins! lmfao thank you sir.

Great help, no idea what the hell they were

👍

Thanks for sharing. Picked up the tipton set today at cabelas. Also had a guy recommend the dewey one piece rods. Had to get one in .22 cal and one in .30 cal and the same for 2 bore guides. Its pricey but with guns and accesories, you get what you pay for.

The real question is what is the slotted tip used for if u use the brush then the jag

good way to lube the barrel after cleaning too. Just lube the back end of the patch and push through once. Barrel is now lubricated without using excess lube with the patch slotted loop attachment. I've always hated having to use excess lube because the patch barely touches the barrel with the slotted loop.

Now I don’t feel so bad not knowing what the heck a jag was. Thank you for enlightening us 🙏

Thank you for this video

Thanks for taking the time to explain this tool.

Finally somebody explained what the hell they do

I’ve had one for years that came with a cleaning kit and never knew
Glad my brain grew a tiny bit more thanks

Got it in my kit and wasn’t sure what it was for , thanks for your info

Thanks , Very Informative

Thanks. I didn't know what they were. They look like you're supposed to attach to something.

Never really used them
Kinda figured as much….
Might start….

My question is, can you pull it back if you want to? Seems like reversing it might be impossible because there's not enough clearance and if the path jams up in to the jag (trying to reverse it) it would make it impossible to reverse. Just means you need to make sure you have a long enough stick and a way to get the patch off the other end, esp like if you're cleaning a semi-automatic rifle from the muzzle without disassembly.

Hillariuos sounds like me I was always too embarrassed to ask anyone "they'd be like you shouldn't even have a gun if you don't know" I generally use a snake and or patches

Thanks a lot for the help man!

I prefer Jags. Good video.

I'm with everyone else. I had no idea. I will start using them next clean. I really enjoyed your excellent video. Thanks from Chuck in the Arizona Desert.

Did my first gun cleaning, was trying to figure those out. Greatly appreciate the advice.

Ok cool …I just got a nice kit from Amazon and I had no idea jags were coming in the kit in which also I didn't know wth a jag was or what it was for…Thanks

Yeah same didn't have a clue

Thank you for the video.

Been looking for what the hell those do. Thanks for the vid

I’m sticking with my old method of brush soaked in solvent, them i run a patch soaked in CLP, then a few dry patches, then lastly- run the mop. Takes a few more minutes and a few more patches, but it isnt that much more time consuming, and thats what ive always done.
