The Hoppe's BoreSnake Viper 24002VD delivers fast, effective barrel cleaning for 9mm, .38, .357, and .380 pistols without disassembly. This one-pass cleaning system combines scrubbing and patching in a single pull-through operation.
What Makes This Different
The Viper series features an integrated bronze brush followed by cleaning floss that removes fouling in one motion. Unlike traditional rod-and-patch cleaning that requires multiple passes, the BoreSnake's weighted brass tip pulls easily through the barrel while the embedded phosphor bronze bristles scrub away powder residue and lead deposits. The trailing floss section applies solvent and polishes the bore to a clean finish.
