Temu gun related stuff

Once again I'm NOT doing a Temu endorsement, I've bought some odd wrenches from them that shipped quickly, seemed of good quality and there have been no problems with the credit card I used but I'm still a little suspicious of their low prices and I have not ordered any of their items that might be catagorized as being 'precision tools or equipment'.

That said here's a link to their gun stuff (faux bore snakes--$5, 750 gun cleaning patches--$4 and lots of other stuff) if anyone is interested.

I just hate giving my business to the Chinese Commies if I can help it. Especially for gun related purchases, I try to only buy "made in America" gear, although I will admit that I own a few Glocks.

I have to buy enough ChiCom crap as it is, won't buy anything else if I can help it.

Sometimes it seems I have no choice but to buy Chinese. If i have a choice, I buy not made in china from an American company.

Temu is spyware extraordinaire.

I wouldn't click on a link to their site, say nothing of sign up or buy anything.
