Description
The BoreSnake has been the go-to for people who want a clean bore without dragging out a full rod-and-patch setup, and this version tucks the original design into a slick little carrying case. It's built for pistols and revolvers chambered in .357, 9mm, .380, and .38 Special, so it covers a big chunk of the everyday carry and range gun lineup. Drop the weighted end down the barrel, pull it through, and you're done. The integrated bronze brush scrubs out carbon fouling while the woven tail sweeps the loose debris behind it, giving you a lot more cleaning surface than a single patch ever could.
What Sets the BoreSnake Den Apart
The real upgrade here is the Den itself. The clear case keeps your BoreSnake protected and clean between uses so it isn't rolling around loose in the bottom of your bag picking up grit. Better yet, the lid snaps off and becomes a T-handle, which means no more wrapping the cord around your knuckles to yank it through. Just grab the handle and pull. It's a small change that makes the whole job faster and a lot easier on your hands.
Made to Live in Your Range Bag
This thing is made to travel. It's compact enough to disappear into a range bag, backpack, or truck console, and the brass weight on the pull cord is laser etched with the caliber so you always know what you grabbed. Add a few drops of your favorite solvent to the brush and tail before you run it through and you'll get an even better clean.
The BoreSnake is washable and reusable, so once it gets grungy you can toss it in the wash and keep it in service. For folks who shoot regularly and want a quick barrel touch-up at the range or a fast wipe-down at home, this is one of the simplest cleaning tools you can own. It won't fully replace a detailed deep clean, but for routine maintenance it's tough to beat.

Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers does this BoreSnake Den cover?
This model is sized for pistols and revolvers chambered in .357, 9mm, .380, and .38 Special. The .35 caliber family shares a close enough bore diameter that a single BoreSnake handles all of them. The brass weight is stamped with the size so you can confirm at a glance.
How does the T-handle on the BoreSnake Den work?
The lid of the Den snaps off and becomes a pull handle, so you don't have to wrap the cord around your hand to drag it through the bore. You just clip the handle to the cord, drop the weight down the barrel, and pull straight through. When you're done it snaps right back onto the case for storage.
Can you reuse and wash the BoreSnake?
Yes. The BoreSnake is designed to be washed and reused many times over. Once it's loaded up with fouling, run it through the laundry, let it dry, and it's ready for the next range trip.
Do I still need solvent with the BoreSnake Den?
For the best results, add a few drops of your favorite bore solvent to the brush section and the tail before pulling it through. The dry snake will clear loose debris on its own, but solvent helps break down stubborn carbon and gives you a cleaner bore. It's a great quick-clean tool but pairs best with a good solvent for heavier fouling.
