Model: An AR-15 bore guide is a tool used during the cleaning process to protect the rifle's bore and chamber from damage while cleaning. Here's what you need to know about AR-15 bore guides: Purpose: The bore guide is inserted into the chamber of the AR-15 rifle and aligned with the bore. It serves to center the cleaning rod and guide it through the barrel during cleaning, preventing the rod from contacting the bore walls and potentially damaging the rifling. Design: AR-15 bore guides are typically designed to fit snugly into the rifle's chamber, ensuring proper alignment with the bore. They feature a central channel through which the cleaning rod passes, keeping it centered and preventing it from touching the barrel's walls. Material: Bore guides are commonly made from materials such as polymer, aluminum, or brass. These materials are non-marring and compatible with most solvents and cleaning agents, ensuring they won't damage the rifle's chamber or bore. Compatibility: AR-15 bore guides are designed specifically for the AR-15 platform and are compatible with most AR-15 rifles. However, it's essential to select a bore guide that matches the specific caliber of your AR-15, as different calibers may have variations in bore diameter. Benefits: Using a bore guide during cleaning helps protect the rifle's bore and chamber from damage caused by the cleaning rod. It also helps prevent solvents and debris from entering the action or trigger mechanism, reducing the risk of malfunctions or damage to internal components. Ease of Use: To use an AR-15 bore guide, simply insert it into the rifle's chamber until it seats securely. Then, insert the cleaning rod through the central channel of the bore guide and attach the desired cleaning accessories, such as jags, brushes, or patches. Clean the rifle's bore as usual, knowing that the bore guide is providing protection and alignment. Maintenance: After use, clean the bore guide with a solvent and brush to remove any fouling or debris. Ensure it is thoroughly dry before storing it to prevent corrosion or damage. Overall, an AR-15 bore guide is a valuable accessory for maintaining your rifle's bore and chamber during cleaning. By using a bore guide, you can ensure that your rifle remains in optimal condition for accuracy and performance.
