The Kleenbore 12 Gauge Dual-Kleen Rifle Cleaning Kit (Model: KDS-12) is a comprehensive bore maintenance system designed specifically for 12-gauge shotgun platforms. It integrates a 32-inch rigid rod setup for thorough bench scrubbing with a fast pull-through bore rope for rapid field clearing. The kit includes chemical fouling removers and bore accessories engineered to clear plastic wad fouling, unburned powder residue, and carbon deposits from shotgun barrels, chambers, and forcing cones.

Who is the Kleenbore 12 Gauge Dual-Kleen Cleaning Kit for?

• 12 Gauge Clay Target Shooters — Requires the 32-inch aluminium rod, #5/16"-27 threaded bronze brush, and included 0.5 oz Break-Free CLP to scrub heavy plastic wad fouling and powder buildup from barrels during range bag maintenance sessions between shooting rounds.
• Waterfowl and Upland Game Hunters — Relies on the quick 12-gauge pull-through rope cleaner and 0.5 oz dropper bottle of CLP for immediate post-hunt barrel cleaning in wet or dusty field environments before packing away firearms.

Less suitable for: Shotgun barrels longer than 32 inches, which require an additional extension rod section or an extra-long one-piece cleaning rod. Attempting to use this kit on rifles or handguns is prohibited due to the large rod diameter and #5/16"-27 thread size; these firearms require a dedicated small-diameter rifle or handgun cleaning kit.
