"As another Springfield-based manufacturer, we're very pleased to once again support Smith & Wesson and their ongoing efforts to expand the shooting sports. We welcome the staff and competitors to Springfield and wish them the best of luck at the IDPA Indoor National Championship," said Cathy Desorcy, product manager for Swab-its.
Regarded as one of the finest competitive shooting matches in the country, the Smith & Wesson IDPA Indoor National Championship represents the official start of IDPA's competition season. More than 300 of the sport's best shooters are expected to compete for titles in Custom Defensive Pistol, Enhanced Service Pistol, Stock Service Pistol, Compact Carry Pistol and Revolver, the five divisions within IDPA.
As part of their sponsorship, Swab-its has donated packs of their popular Bore-tips(R), Bore-whips(TM), and Gun-tips(TM) firearms cleaning swabs to be distributed at the match.
Swab-its Bore-tips provide the ultimate in barrel bore cleaning with their tight bore-fitting 360-degree cleaning surface, delivering improved barrel cleaning and maximum lubrication. In December, Swab-its introduced its new .50cal Bore-tip - to the appreciation of a wide range of .50cal shooters, including muzzleloader and black powder shooters.
Bore-whips, also introduced last year, have been engineered specifically for use in cleaning and maintaining air guns, as well as small caliber firearms, and with their tight barrel fit provide the ideal delivery system to clean and lubricate without the hassle and lint residue of the less effective patches and cotton swabs.
Gun-tips come in a variety of sizes, are also lint-free, reusable foam swabs, and offer gun owners superior firearms detailing versatility.
