We carry many lines of cleaning products, but our number-one best seller is the Cleenbore SACS (Small Arms Cleaning System).” The Cleenbore SACS Kit uses CO2 to blast cleaning and oiling patches through bores. The SACS system uses unique polymer cleaning and oiling wads, which are “shot” down a firearm’s bore from the breech, propelled by compressed gas from a CO2 cartridge. Adaptors and appropriately sized wads are available to fit virtually any caliber firearm. Chemicals packaged with SACS are KG Industries’ carbon remover, barrel polish, solvent and degreaser, and Militec-1 preservative lubricant. “We keep a kit out and handy to demonstrate SACS to customers and about 90 percent of those who see it used, buy it. Now that’s impressive,” Weiss said. Shooters Depot routinely challenges customers to bring in their “cleaned” guns, which are then “re-cleaned” with the SACS system. “They can’t believe how much crud, fouling and dirt the SACS system flushes out of their ‘clean’ barrels. But seeing is believing, and they buy it almost every time, on the spot. It really makes gun cleaning much faster and more effective — even fun! Just take the time to demonstrate it, and SACS will sell itself,” Weiss advised. Circle No. 247 on Inquiry Card www.shootingindustry.com Circle No. 253 on Inquiry Card JULY 2008 47
