Here’s a rundown of essential items for any long-awaited “day at the range.” Magazines are important. Without them your pistol is a badly designed club. While a plain bottle brush will get the insides clean, you have to get the magazine apart before you can really scrub it. Some are easy to get apart, some are not. Glock mags can be hard to get apart. The GTUL (www.mygtul.com) gets those pesky tubes squished just the right amount to take off the baseplate. The included brush makes quick work of the sludge. If you ever drop a magazine in the dirt, sand or mud, you’re going to wish you had one of these in your bag.
