Owners: Do you use the viper to REPLACE a common pull-through cable cleaning system such as Otis? Wondering if you find it sufficient.

I have not had any experience with Otis, but the "bore snake" works really well, when I first used I was surprise how clean it got the bore.

Viper does a great job in one pass. Bore looks like a mirror. Easy to use frequently so no buildup. Not used the Otis or rods and wire brushes since getting the BoreSnake.

Bore snake doesnt need the bore guide. The bore guide in combination with a good rod and bore cleaner is better...in my opinion. I like using a bore paste in combination with Rand CLP or Ogre Enviroclean.

I would never buy the Clean and Renew system again. I only bought it with my first Braun. It is a gimmick which is expensive. You can easily brush out cut whiskers or carefully wash them out. It is not like the whiskers are actually dangerous and a health concern. I know of wha I speak.

it makes cleaning the bore much easier, and you will do a better job. if you have invested in the rifle it's worth spending a little more for this to keep it clean. i think you would be better off just using a bore snake rather than jamming a brush down the muzzle. you have a nice rifle, take care of it.

I wouldn't know really. I think you should contact viper. And ask before making a purchase.

We've had the viper alarm installed now for about two going on three years. It was installed with the tilt sensor and back up battery and we haven't had to replace it. I'm fairly certain it's used if not entirely at least in part so that just in case a smarty pants car thief comes along and cut the cables to your car battery so the alarm doesn't go off, so he can steal it quietly well the back up battery kicks in and allows the alarm to still sound. Hope this helps

It comes with all the wires needed to add it to a Viper alarm but it needs to be activated by an authorized dealer so unless you know an authorized dealer one will probably charge you to activate it.

judging from how it worked with the one year version, as long as you have the code they allow it. im looking at the box right now and the only phone# I can find is1-800-336-3166. try that if not go to the viper website and see if you can reach customer service. this is worth the trouble. its a great antivirus and I swear by it. good luck!

Don't buy this! It is the worst. Look at the reviews. There is another one that fixes the problems that viper won't admit to.

Yes you can. This set will clean most guns. The only differance is there is no solid cleaning rod. It uses cables to swab and scrub useing their own brand of patches. Go to you tube to see it in action. I like you can use it in almost all guns,and I use it regularly,but I still like a solid cleaning rod. The brushes are cheap as well they don't last very long. I think they should have used a stiff nylon brushes instead

You would need a DBALL, but I don't think you can get this connected through Viper without a professional install. I have this alarm installed on 2 of my vehicles, I love it!

If you are looking for a hoppe's viper snake then this one is made for that caliber: http://www.amazon.com/Hoppes-24003V-BoreSnake-Revolver-Cleaner/dp/B006THNYVK/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1418615995&sr=1-1&keywords=24003&pebp=1418615999147

There is an annual fee and works with compatible viper systems. Also you may have trouble activating. They only allow authorized dealers to activate and they won't do it unless you buy from them which cost much much more. I got lucky and called dei and they activated for me but you may or may not get lucky. Just google viper smart start and look on the viper website and it tells you which units are comparable and how much the plans are. It's definitely worth it if you can get it activated. You even get roadside assistance which is awesome.

The Snake bore cleaner does not replace the Rod and brass brushes for cleaning your gun. It is for when you are out shooting, (many rounds) that it is a easy and fast way to keep your guns clean and shooting good. I would not use a electric drill with the rods to clean a gun. It should only take a few times down the barrel to clean the bore. Be careful you could damage the bore using a drill less control.

I would go with the rod cleaning if its for home. The pull through is more for the person out in the field on a hunt because it is easy to carry with you.I have both and they will both work. This is the way i look at it. hope this helps. Bo

I would definitely go with the pull through... It's more efficient, less hassle, rods can bend and warp really a pain... Pull throughs often boast extremely fast cleaning( 1swipe and done ) which is true, but I always do a couple passes to be on the safe side.
