Dutch Cleaning rod

Gerben is correct..This is a snap closure likely off of the holster. Stored in the grease barrel for safekeeping.

Try as I might... These little rascals are unsalvageable. They are placed by hammering them together and in doing so the interior metal locks onto itself and cannot be reversed. How I wish that were not true but it is.

I would dearly love to find a box of these new and un installed. Many artifacts could be restored..

Bill..Where/how does this rod un screw? Can you show a photo of the part that comes apart?
