Gunslick Handgun Carbon Fiber Cleaning Rod - 35002
The 8" length makes it work for all my semi-auto's, not too long like another brand I tried which was 25 inches. Works from .22 on up. Well made.
Pros: Good size for my Handguns, great product

These are as good as any on the market, or at least the ones I've tried anyway and I've tried a few. The grip is a little small for me but it has a non slip texture so you can firmly hold it even if your hands are a little damp. I do like the carbon fiber rod and not having to worry about a coating like is on the steel rods. I have a few of the steel rods with the coating and more than a few places on the rod where it has rubbed the barrel and scraped the coating off. I don't know how much damage could be done by a cleaning rod with metal to metal contact but from now on I only use carbon fiber rods. The only thing that I would say is wait for them to go on sale, they can be pricey.

Good size for pistols. Smooth bearings and a comfortable handle. It works well in my .22 pistols. It's replacing aHoppes stainless steel rod and fits .22 bores better without scraping the sides of the bore.

All the other rods I have used have "T" handles. This handle is much easier to use. The length of the rod is just perfect for cleaning any of my pistols. I've now retired all of my old rods. You can use this cleaning rod on most any caliber pistol.
Pros:
Great handle
Perfect rod length
Cons:
None
Best Used for:
All pistols
Would recommend: Yes

good carbon fiber rod, but the connecting piece to the brush is not strong enough when trying to remove the lead clogs.
Pros: carbon fiber rod
Cons: price

This is the perfect cleaning rod for pistols and revolvers. I already owned the rifle rod and was very pleased. When I saw the pistol rod, I had to have it. The handle is perfect. You will not be disappointed.
Pros: will not harm your barrel
Cons: none
Would recommend: Yes
