I've been looking for a field (meaning that I can transport it with my other field gear) cleaning rod / stuck round clearing rod for my 1919.
- I'd prefer it be collapsible
- I'd prefer that it either have a permanent "T" handle or a handle that unscrews so it can be hit with a mallet to clear a stuck round
- I'd like to have one that comes in some sort of pouch so I don't lose segments
I started looking at the Vietnam-era M16 buttstock cleaning rod sets but I think that the pivoting "T" handle would be an annoyance, also, I think it'd be too short for a 1919
?? - Will the M1 Garand buttstock cleaning kit have enough length for a 1919 barrel?
?? - There is a fixed "T" handle M1 Garand cleaning kit also available. Would that kit have enough length?
?? - Any other suggestions?
