    Bore snakes are fine for pistols and AR's. Anything with a crown sticks to rods. I may or may not have cut a crown with a bore snake :spy:

    AR barrels have a crown just like any other barrel. It will take a lot of work to damage the crown with a bore snake and could be avoided by simply being more careful.

    AR's also usually have a compensatory or brake so you aren't able to come out at an angle as you can a target crown but yes can be avoided by being more careful. Just my learning experience I only rod anything with a crown.

    Pulling it out to the side instead of directly out everytime. Wears over a few years.

    If you're pulling up, how can you do anything other than pull straight out. I don't think I've ever seen anyone pull sideways. That and it's a shoestring with a pull cord and a very small amount of brass
    And it would still do far less damage than any cleaning rod.

    You're 250 miles north of where I'm at, if I didn't have a speech planned tomorrow I'd be tempted to make the 4 hour drive.

    2 year old stumbled in when I had an open jar of Hoppe's #9 next to me. OF COURSE she managed to knock it over- onto my feet. Have you ever tried to walk on hardwoods with two feet covered in Hoppe's? JFC.

    Nah. Totally chill, just didn't want to get any on her. She did a hand stand while I drifted through the house to wash off my feet.

    I have something legitimate and technical to ask. But im afraid a snowflake is going to find it offensive and cry to the mod.

    First time seeing a Pelican case in person, Absolutely blown away by the quality! Hell I don't even need the AR for home defense I could probably kill an intruder with the case itself it's so burly lol!!
