Cleaning ?

[twistedREAP3R]

Ok so anytime I think of a question I like to bring it to the fellow members on s&w Forums so anyways would I be fine for a little with these two items for cleaning or can someone show me something better to use since this is my first rifle owned I know how to clean it its just there are so many types and brands I get overwhelmed.

Hoppe's Rifle Cleaning Kit with Aluminum Cleaning Rods. U22. Hoppe's 9 Cleaning Kits.
Hoppes BoreSnake Gun Cleaning Kit. 34002, 34004, 34010, 34011, 34014, 34015, 34033, 34035. Hoppe's 9 Cleaning Kits.

I have heard great things about the boresnake but it has been out of stock for over a month its held my order so Im trying to decide if its worth the wait ?

Here's a vote for the boresnake... Walmart sells them, so don't hold up an order for one.

+1 for the bore snake. I run it through the barrel twice after every 500 rounds.

Well the walmart near my apt. hasn't had them in for awhile thats why I went to online purchase and I figured it isn't a bad price for the boresnake plus oil, solvent, and weatherguard clothes which I believe are useless with polymer body am I correct or can polymer rust lol I probably sound like an idiot right now but oh well .

I use a cleaning rod and cotton patches to clean the bore. Every thing else I spray with brake cleaner and blow off with a air compressor and oil. It's the easiest gun you will ever clean. Go to this link and there is a video on cleaning as well as others. Don

Is that birchwood solvent good ? and do I have to buy it online or can I get it from like a local gun range and or like walmart?

I am lucky Walmart and the Local Gun store both carry it.
