I saw that one there too. Are you suggesting the Hoppes kit is better quality? What is prefered, the flex rods or the brass rods?
I definitely prefer the "flex rods" if you mean that they are made of carbon fiber. No chance of damaging the crown of the barrel with them.

so where did you 2 get that toolbox from
Get a tackle box for fishing, they work great for the bulk of it and other trinkets.
...get a .17 caliber rod and fittings?Also, what do people do for .17 caliber?
You might not see them in regular retail stores, but with the popularity of .17 rimfire there are plenty of cleaning options. There are even .17 caliber Boresnakes.I can't say that I"ve seen any .17 cleaning kits, which is why I asked.
This might come across as a noob thing to say but: I wanted to use my 9mm, but the kit I have for my 9mm says .357, 9mm, & .38. Should I??
Sounds like 2 votes for that case from you and Atilla. Does it have a .380 brush?
Hopefully someone with more experience on the .380 stuff will chime in, but I was told that the cartridge is the same as a 9mm, only shorter, so in theory, a 9mm brush, jag, etc. should work perfectly for what you want.
