The KleenBore M16C Military Style Chamber Brush for 5.56mm/.223 caliber is a purpose-built cleaning tool for AR-15s, M16s, M4s, and other modern sporting rifles. This chamber brush tackles the hardest-to-clean part of your rifle—the chamber itself—with a two-stage design that handles both the chamber area and the bolt lock-up zone in one pass. If you run your rifle hard and demand a cleaning tool that can keep pace, this brush is engineered for that job.
Built for durability and heavy use, the M16C features a core wire looped through the brass coupling—a reinforced design that stands up to repeated scrubbing without premature wear. The first stage uses phosphor bronze bristles to aggressively clean the chamber, while a second stage of stainless steel bristles follows to address the bolt lock-up area where carbon and residue accumulate. This two-brush approach means you're not fighting one brush to do two different jobs.
One important note: the #8-36 thread coupling is military-spec and not compatible with standard commercial cleaning rods. This brush is designed to work with KleenBore military-style rods, including those found in their Classic Rifle Kits and Field Pack options. Made in the USA, it's built to the standards you'd expect from a tool designed for serious shooters.
