Ron, I suspect this rod is not original but one of the repro's that have a screw on shaft. The screw on shaft type are very fragile as the screw section is less than half the fiameter of the main shaft. I would bet dollars to doughnuts a football linebacker could not twist off a full diameter brass cleaning rod shaft.
