    So if your desperate try a primitive Pete on it and take some old stiff coat hanger straighten it out and put a small bend/hook on the end with some pliers shove it in there get past the brush and try to drag it up that way ...... could scratch the barrel maybe? But if your desperate it might work or use some similar design.

    Yup! That's what I used but I hammered the end flat and made a small hook on it, poured a little hot soapy water down first and it came out without any effort. That gun now hangs over the fireplace in Mio.

    Use some type of tube or sleve to push down the barrel and over the brush, then pull it out. You may have to push against the back of the barrel to force the brush into the tube.


    I've not tried this but in theory it could work.

    I'm consulting some experts on this, so stay tuned.

    I would take a section of thin-wall tubing that fits down the bore and force it over the bristles. then pull out the whole works...
    Here's what I got. Same idea as miked!

    Their is a corkscrew style bullet puller that would most likely hook it and pull it out.

    Not sure how safe this crazy idea is,

    But here it goes. WARNING!!! Proceed at your own risk. Seal the end where the cap goes, assuming the brush is copper pour some ammonia or nitro solvent I think it supposed to disolve copper but shouldn't harm the gun steel, not sure how fast it works, probably have to let it sit a day or two and see if it disolves the bristels, and may need to reapply additional solvent.

    Blast it out

    Pull the nipple, insert a few grains of powder and pop a cap. May take a few, or more than a few applications. MAKE SURE MUZZLE IS POINTED IN SAFE DIRECTION. Fire into an old blanket or similar object to prevent ricochet.

    I'm not sure this last suggestion, or similar, would do the job, since it would be tough to get enough pressure built up to blow the brush outta there, especially with such a small charge.
