Don’t bother with a cheap sewing kit scissors are cheap and dull, thread is weak. get one spool of very strong thread or forever be repairing. Get pack of needles.cut thread with knife.

i have an old cotton shirt that i've cut up into small shreds to clean my guns. reusable and just wash with water and hang dry. Cotton (especially from a gun manufacturer) becomes pricey for cleaning a gun. More efficient in my opinion.

What size container are folks putting either their sewing or cleaning kits in? Lucas launched a good topic and the thread that follows point to adding more stuff. I simply can not fit everything in the sewing container/box that I got from Wal-Mart. Any thoughts and pics would be greatly appreciated

super glue(for cuts and anything), vasiline applied to one end of cotton patch a kindling for starting fire, asperin/ibprofin, lots of tp…also good fire material(not preused), breakfree is great but special greese is best for rails of Glocks or sigs, LED headlight at walma for $10, wire saw at Harborfreight.com for $2.99 or $7, [Swat pants at LAGear with knee reinforce],so much stuff, so little time.

speaking of sewing "gear"==the "speedy stitcher" is a very handy item to have around , comes with some very good waxed thread ,2 very heavy needles , and is a self contained unit..speedy actually makes 2 kits , the larger of the 2 also includes smaller needle and finer thread , which is nicer for thinner type material repairs..and its money well spent because i have found things around the house to "mend" which helps justify the cost { about 20 buks
]..i got mine from -the ""kittery trading post""-. the store is on the east coast…they have online sales ,i,ve dealt with them and they seem to be good people. also , if your order is over 50 bucks ===they ship free….and they have lots of good stuff for the great outdoors—————————good luck friends–and "IF ITS HAPPENIN INDOORS>>>YOU CAN COUNT ME OUT >> !!!
