xamoel Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 good to hear! i'm planning to buy one of the complete kits, either the otis deluxe, otis deluxe LE elite or otis deluxe military elite. any info on whats the difference between them? military costs 566, LE 186 and elite only 130.

LeoAtrox Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Good kits. They make the USMC standard issue cleaning kit now. (I guess the old A2 buttstock kit went out of fasion.) I have an Otis kit for my 6.8 SPC gun ... But in my opinion, they're a bit pricey for what you get. If you need something ultra-compact (like fit-in-your-pocket-or-on-your-belt size) and portable, or you want a super-big do-it-all kit, then Otis might be your style. If you just want a kit for a single caliber and don't need it to be ultra-compact (got a range bag?) I'd look elsewhere. You'll save yourself about $50.

xamoel Posted February 8, 2010 Author Share Posted February 8, 2010 well, as i plan to purchase the H&K mr556 and mr762, a glock in .40 and a DE .50AE anyway, i'd like to have a do-it-all kit. i just don't quite see the difference between the military elite: http://otisgun.com/cgistore/store.cgi?page=/new/product.html&setup=1&ida=222&idp=332&his=0|5|332&cart_id=3609008.3008 and the LE elite: http://otisgun.com/cgistore/store.cgi?page=/new/product.html&setup=1&ida=361&idp=118&his=0|115|118&cart_id=3609008.3008 except for the price of course. any idea?

tinman1975 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 They are a little bit pricey. I use mine mostly for my M1A because it is a real pain in the neck to clean from breech to muzzle without taking the barrel completely off if you are using a cleaning rod. The otis kit is very portable and all around useful, but it does make the cleaning process take about three times longer than using a rod. But for Ar's and shotguns where it is easy to access the barrel for cleaning...I like using a single piece coated rod with patches and brushes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4JOHN Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I have this one http://www.otisgun.com/cgistore/store.cgi?page=/new/product.html&setup=1&ida=41&idp=330&his=0|1|330&cart_id=5470886.5200 I have been using it for a few months and it is stocked with every damn thing under the sun... Very nice kit... Comes in a pretty cool little duffle bag with a very plush inner velvet liner. I like the bore cables better than the steel/brass rods, seems faster to me and this kit comes with a ton of them in different lengths and diamiters. there's my 2 cents....
