I saw somewhere a reference to a "Patch Popper". A simple device to hold cleaning patches under control and not flying all over the range or your cleaning bench.

I don't have a dog in this fight. I have no financial interest, but when I see something I think others can use, I feel it's my duty to post it.... :D

I ordered a couple of them from Arizona Sharp Shooters ( bpsteve@cox.net ).... www.arizonasharpshooters.com (It doesn't show up, on the "products" page. It is at the bottom of the home page)

They arrived today and I'm here to tell ya they are the neatest little gizmos I've seen in a long time. Very simple but a perfect solution to a PITN problem. Turn the little knob and a patch simply pops up. One cylinder for wet, one for dry. It just don't get any better!

$75 + $13 Shipping......

Paul Hurd is the source and I imagine you could also order directly from him.

That is just too clever.

That truly is clever, but is the price I see correct? If it is I think I will put up with loose patch problems. It may be worth it for some, but I just don't see $75.00 + shipping worth of merchandise.

A solution looking for a problem?

Mine come in a bag and I can pop them out as I need them. Send me 75 bucks and I will tell you how!

Those are neat, pricey, but neat.
