What Are Brass Rods Used For

Firearms, including machine guns, rifles, submachine guns, and pistols must be kept clean and not dirty or rusty, especially after they are fired, they must be wiped clean in time to maintain a good fighting condition, especially the guns and barrels.

The barrel is the main combat part of the gun. The inner wall of the barrel (barrel) is the key device for the expansion of the combustion gas of the bullet bottom to push the warhead to rotate and prepare for the barrel. If it is dirty and rusty, it will affect the shooting accuracy and even cause the risk of explosion.

To wipe the inner wall of the barrel, you must use a cleaning rod: insert a small strip of gun cleaning cloth into the hole at one end of the cleaning rod, dipped in gun oil, reach into the barrel and pull it back and forth until the inner wall of the barrel is transparent and the rifle lines are clearly visible, and then Put on a clean gun wiping cloth and put a little gun oil on the inner wall of the barrel, OK!

The principle of wiping the bore of an artillery is the same regardless of whether it is a smoothbore or a rifled gun, except that the cleaning rods are long, short, thick, and thin.
