Umarex Airgun Cleaning Kit, .177 Reviews

A must have. I give it five stars.

Not a think!,,,,,

Easy to use, reusable, multiple uses

Add synthetic lube

This kit has everything you need for cleaning .177 and .22 airguns. It comes with bristle brush and a mop for both calibers. The flexible wire rod is 33 inches long which is plenty for my guns but might be a little short if you have a lo0ng barrel with an internal compensator. Screwdriver bit are also included if you need to disassemble anything. Everything fits in a neat package.

I would make the flexible wire rod about 3 inches longer and offer the kit in two sizes: 18 inches for pistols and 36 inches for rifles.

This is a replacement kit. The first one I received was defective and did not have threads machined into the flexible rod. I could not attach any of the accessories so the kit was useless. I called Pyramyd Air customer service and they immediately sent me a new kit! This one is perfect. Thank you PA.

Easy for a 9 year old to use & teach how to clean firearms & air guns with.

Take time to figure out

Umarex is a name brand.

Just didn't have components I thought I would be using.

I like the Hoppe cleaning kit more.

Great kit in small pkg,great value!

Make attachments more durable

The Brownells mops that fit Dewey rods fit this string rod

This is a pull through system. Easily fit the cable through a break barrel, screw in the brush or mop and pull through. May not work on bolt actions if you can not remove the bolt if the loading opening is small. Kit has everything you need with exception of cleaning solutions. The pull handle doubles as screw driver. Two Phillips, two flat blade, and two hex wrench heads included.

I would prefer a soft case.

Nice compact kit.

Would prefer a cleaning rod vs this flex rod. Would also liked it to include a brass brush not just these nylon ones.

For the price it is not bad to have in your field bag but look in to a better kit.

Awesome comprehensive cleaning kit.

I would add a small container of cleaning oil

I am reviewing the Umarex cleaning kit. It works.

Not thinking of any changes.

The Umarex kit is a pull through kit. I think that this is best for 177 caliber. I mention this because of comments requesting "stiffer" cables. For 177 caliber, ANY push through kit will be very short lived. The joints fail. Can't be helped. A pull-through kit will survive the firearm. As an aside to other commenters, I'll say taking what I call extreme measures is unproductive. I've seen recommendations for washing pellets. Okay. Useful in some applications, but for the majority of airgunners, needless. The pellets are coated with graphite in most cases because without a graphite coating you would have corroded pellets. Washing that graphite coating off mandates replacement with "something". Why??? If you are looking for "hole-in-a-hole" accuracy, okay. Do what you have to do to achieve that. On the other hand, if you're looking for functional accuracy, leave the graphite coating alone and just add a tiny bit of airgun oil to the pellets. That works for functional accuracy.

Compact and self contained in a durable plastic case.

Not sure that I would change anything. I don't care for the keeper button sticking up during use, but fixing that would probably increase cost. Plus, it really isn't in the way all that much - just an annoyance.

This is a compact kit for cleaning 177 cal air rifles. It does the job it is supposed to do. It is a cable system which means it's a "pull through". If you are looking for a straight rod system, this isn't it. I've heard a few people say "I wish it were stiffer so I could push the pellet out of the barrel". That's not the way cable or chain systems work. I prefer straight rod systems, but by the time you are down to 177 cal, the sectioned rods are too delicate to last. A 177 cleaning rod needs to be one piece if you expect it to last. Which negates taking it with you regularly. This kit can be tossed in the range bag. Plus, with a pull through system, you are protecting the crown of the barrel meaning better accuracy over time. So, while I might prefer something different, this kit does the job, and does it well, and I'm completely satisfied.
