Two in a package. 1 straight and the other has a bend in the middle for putting in your pocket and taking it out on the field. Built with a strong lightweight plastic stick with a soft non-pilling fleece swab wrap. It soaks up the paint and is built to last.

I bought this in a pack of 2 for 13$ since I broke my other swab and I thought that this one would be a good replacement. I tried it out the 1st day I got it and it worked great. no mess left in my barrel or gun and it cleans up with running water+soap.
Conclusion:
Works great and cheap, cant beat that! I recomend it to any1 from recballers to pros

Weaknesses:
Little to thick
Review:
Used this for a coulple of games. When I broke, it was easy to clean. Got almost all of the paint out. The thickness makes sure a lot gets out of the barrel, but it can take a longer time to clean it. Soooo much better the the PMI. After the game I just rised it in water and the paint came out. Sometimes some of the red fibers would come out.
Conclusion:
Overall impressed with the product. I would steal this from my friend. Way better than the PMI. 8 cause its great.

Review:
I have redz pants, there is a holder on the side for the battle swab, it can be a pain to get out and in during a game. Get this, my friend chopped and didn't have a swab so he asked me to throw it to him so i did right then someone shot a stream of paint and it hit the swab and it broke, the core of it is only wood. I feel that they should make it a bit stronger. Mine was old but it was still working.

Review:
Well I've been using the Redz Swab for the 5 and a half years I've been playing paintball and I find it to be one of thee best barrel cleaners out there.
Strenghts- The Redz barrel swab is very absorbant and it does a great job of cleaning the barrel.
Weaknesses- Like someone else said theres no way to fasten it. Theres no hole to connect a lanyard so you have to shove it in your poket making it easier to get lost.
Dirt and gunk tends to get stuck to the fibers and it could end up making a bigger mess in your barrel. Also after some wear and tear the fibers on the swab tend to come off and get stuck in your barrel.
The best thing you can do is with the single swab drill a hole in the stick of the swab and then a connect a lanyard.
Conclusion:
This a great barrel cleaner. I give it a 9 because it would be nice if Redz put a hole in the single swab so you can fasten in to something. Shoving it in your pocket is a fast and eay to to lose it.

Review:
This is a really great product. I have had mine for 6 months to a year and it seems like it is brand new. These are very very durable. The only bad thing that i can see is the price which is a little high, but not unreasonalbe. Also these squeegees are very easy to get the paint out of. All i do is take them and run them under some hot water. This make the paint flow right out and then you just dry them off and your done.
Comes in pair
Very strong and durable
easy to clean
Weaknesses:
None so far
pricey.
Review:
I've had this since last year to replace the old battle swab that i had. My battle swab broke in half because the rubber only holds the midle where the 2 ends meet. SO i got Reds battle swab and was very pleased to know that the rubber lining extends all the way to the swab section so that there's no wooden parts exposed. This makes it very durable and prevent the wooden sticks from falling out. I've had no problems with these so far and it cleans with ease. The cloth fiber material seems to hold up pretty good too.
Better yet, it comes with the other swab, the onje that has the handle. It really makes my life easier. I used that one to clean out my gun bores. So i got a barrel cleaner and the gun cleaner. It's kinda pricvey but u're getting 2 swabs for the price.
Conclusion:
Great product, durable, comes in pair. Absolutely love it.

Redz has made a Tereffic Swab. If you get a break, clean it in an instant. Clears out paint and shell. It is very easy to use, and it can really make the difference between winning and losing. I have used it with my other paintball markers, but not with my Ion yet (eyes and good barrel/paint match). You can find this kit for near 7 dollars some places online. This is worth it. Back-up swap is great if you have a longer barrel, and they both look really nice.

Review:
Its a squeege what can I say. It has been nie to have them, but I'm not going into detail about how they work. I mean paint broke in my barrel I stuck the squeegge in it cleaned the barrel out. Wow really hard. I so think it was a good set and is always missing when you need them most. worth the cash to have it.
The worst thing that can happen with this squeegee is if you lose it...
Review:
The squeegee works great. The best part is that it stays together unlike some cheaper brands. I think this is one of the best squeegee sets you can buy!
I don't have to use my Redz that often because I own a DM4. It is used sometimes on my Impulse.
It does not fall apart while you clean it.
Conclusion:
I would recommend this product to paintballers because it has held together through a year of use.
