Cleaning Rods

Hi Folks

I have been thinking about this for a while and finally have decided to go ahead and ask for your help with this. Over the last few months I have noticed quite a few cleaning rods for sale on Ebay. This got me to thinking about how would you know if they were real or repros.

I am asking if you could post photos of the cleaning rods that you may own and explain whether they are real or repro, with oilers or without, what type of Luger they were made for (Artillery, Navy, standard etc.), even the maker of the cleaning rod. I think this could be of use to all of us as part of a tutorial or a sticky.

This is to satisfy my curiousity as to what variations are out there. Thanks to all in advance. I appreciate it very much.

Sid.
