1.0 out of 5 stars I will never buy Outers again., October 31, 2011

I rarely write reviews and almost never write negative ones, but on occasion I feel honor-bound to warn others against repeating my mistakes. So there is no confusion: I am only reviewing Outers here, as Amazon's service and prices are both consistently excellent in my experience.

Quite simply, this Outers cleaning kit is garbage. My first warning that I had wasted my money on a cheap kit came upon receipt of the package. The thicker of the two included cleaning rods had its plastic handle completely broken to the point where it slid right off the brass, rendering it unusable. From the nature of the damage, it was pretty evident that this happened at the factory, not in transit. "No problem," I figured, "I have my one-piece graphite rod, which is the only one I plan to use anyway." I bought it for the brushes and jags, after all, not the rods.

So just yesterday I went out to the range with my brand new, custom-built .308 rifle and started shooting. After a bit of shooting, I went to clean the barrel per my gunsmith's instructions. The .30 brush went through the barrel much too easily for my tastes, but I kept going. Then I screwed the .30 plastic jag onto the rod to push through a few patches. Well, I doubled up the patches to give it more pressure, as the jag with just one patch was going through too easily (just like the brush did). The jag is total cheap crap, I discovered, as it promptly broke off *WHILE* *INSIDE* *MY* *BARREL*. The plastic threaded part remained stuck inside the graphite rod, so I couldn't even screw the rod back onto the jag and pull it out. I had to send the now-empty rod (*very* carefully) down from the crown and push the jag and patch out that way.

Furious, I packed up all my equipment, drove to a nearby sporting goods store, and sought help with getting the threaded part of the jag out of the rod. It took the poor guy quite a while to do it because the plastic was just so soft, but eventually he got it. On another store employee's advice, I bought A Hoppe's brass jag and a new Hoppe's .30 brush-and-hurricane-brush combo package. Those are all working beautifully. Hoppe's, he told me, builds the best cleaning equipment out of all the popular, mainstream gun maintenance companies.

Well, my lesson has been learned. I will never buy *anything* made by Outers again; their equipment is cheaply made rubbish. Hereafter I'm sticking with Hoppe's except when and where I become convinced--from personal experience, never from others' reports--another company offers higher-quality equipment. And for the rest of my life Outers will never get a second chance.

This is a a great kit and has most of what you need. However the platic in my inside came warped, and the handle lock in so firmly you have to yank them to get them out.

This is exactly what I was looking for: One kit with everything I need to clean all the calibers and lengths of firearms that I use in one sturdy case.

This is a hardware-only package (no cleaning fluids), but there's two extra spaces for throwing in the fluids of your choice. It's easy to find universal cleaning kits, but they all had poor reviews because the carrying cases were cheaply made. But this one is excellent considering the awesome price. And there's two different sets of rods (narrower and beefier). That was a great plus.

Well done, Outers!
