Hand gun cleaning rod

Purchased this for the 12-28 female threaded end to use my VFG pellet adapters. Worked great just wish I had the same rod with a rotating handle.

It's A Good Quality Rod !!!

Quality Cleaning Rod, Made in the USA !!! Looks Good, Works Well, What more can you say. Good Job Dewey, This is No "Junk Import Rod" like so many on the market today !!!

Been searching for brass pistol rod!

I simply love this brass pistol rod. I currently have safariland's coated-steel pistol rod. It has t-handle which rides on a bearing. But I am really looking for a brass rod with a free-rotating screw-driver handle for comfortable and easy cleaning of the bore...and this dewey pistol rod is the perfect one!
