Otis Technology is offering consumers the chance to win an elite race gun and a complete set of the company's Ripcord one-pass gun cleaners in a new sweepstakes.

Currently underway, the Ripcord Race Gun Giveaway features two grand prizes: a Smith & Wesson Pro Series C.O.R.E. pistol in 9mm or .40 S&W, and a SIG 1911 Max Michel Edition pistol in .40 S&W or .45 ACP. The Smith & Wesson race gun was personally selected by Doug Koenig, an Otis pro staff member and one of the world's finest shooters. The SIG was selected by, not suprisingly, Max Michel himself—also an Otis pro staff member.

The contest runs through June 30, 2016. To enter, visit the Otis website. A weekly prize drawing for a complete set of Otis Ripcords will be held each Friday through July 1, 2016. The Race Gun winners will be selected on July 8.

"Like a race gun, Ripcord is designed for speed," said Heather Bennett, Otis Technology's marketing manager. "Ripcord is the fastest one-pass gun cleaner, making it an ideal tool for champion shooters such as Doug Koenig and Max Michel, or anyone who wants to spend more time shooting and less time cleaning."
