The Bore Tech Pistol B Stix is a 22-45 caliber cleaning rod purpose-built for pistol shooters who demand both precision and protection. At 6.5 inches, it's sized for effective bore cleaning without awkward length in the field or at the bench. This rod tackles the real problem that frustrates handgun maintenance: distinguishing actual copper fouling from false readings caused by standard rod materials. Bore Tech engineered a proprietary alloy ferrule that eliminates that guesswork, so you know exactly what's happening inside your bore and whether you've cleaned enough.
The core steel is caliber-specific, meaning it matches your exact bore diameter for confident, safe passage without wobbling or binding. The cushioned ball bearing handle is the standout here—it follows your barrel rifling smoothly while protecting your pistol's stock and frame finish from dings and scratches that rough handling can cause. The rod itself is treated with an advanced coating that resists wear and prevents debris from embedding into the surface, extending its lifespan and keeping it effective through years of use. Softer and safer than exposed brass but stronger than you'd expect, it won't damage your firearm during regular cleaning cycles.
The female ferrule is machined with a smooth, edge-free transition to accept Bore Tech Proof Positive Jags directly—no adapters needed. If you shoot .22, .270, .30-30, .308, 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, or anything in that caliber range, Bore Tech offers B Stix configurations to match. This is the kind of cleaning gear that pays for itself in peace of mind and stock protection over a season or two of regular shooting.
