I have a complete kit, put together from several incomplete ones. A lot of them out there have two male/male threaded rod sections. Took me three and a half kits to make one complete one, but I also managed to get another complete rod (old wood handled one) so I can make a four section rod for MH, Snider and other old long barreled stuff.

The other problem is that when these kits come on the market, they have been used to death. It is very rare to find bore brushes in decent shape. I thought I had that problem licked, because new Parker Hale brushes are available form Brownells. Unfortunately the thread size has changed and the new brushes don't fit on the old sectioned rods.

New sectioned rods are available (also at Brownells) but they are brass, not steel. I am contemplating having someone machine me a couple of adapters.
