Hello Norm,
Well I took the rod and compared it to a navy holsters' cleaning rod pouch. The fit is perfect. So much so that I wonder if the rod was intentionally broken off at that length, for use with a navy holster. For now I think I will not make any attempt to further modify it. Thanks for your insight and comments.
Best regards,
Joe G.
