Question, cleaning rod
 

Can anyone tell me, was there a special cleaning rod made for the Carbine Luger longer barrel?

Re: Question, cleaning rod
 

Yes. The ones that I have seen have been the commercial model with the oiler on one end.

John, would you know what the length of this rod would be?

Re: Question, cleaning rod, length
 

I sure don't know the exact length, but they would have been slightly longer than the 300mm barrel of the carbine.

Re: Question, cleaning rod, length
 

About 415mm including the short steel shank the brass rod screws into (i.e. as measured from the bottom of the oiler cylinder).

For those not wanting to spend over a $100 for a luger carbine cleaning rod, I ran into a good deal years ago on some really nice repro wood handled Mauser Carbine rods, which will also work work in the luger, with 18 & 1/4" rod (including 2&1/4" jag) that can be removed and replaced by brush or cloth. I'm asking $35 each or 4 for $100 plus S&H. Tom
