Yugo 24/47 Cleaning Rod
Looking for a Yugo 24/57 Cleaning rod. I have looked up the size and the information says it should measure 14 7/8 inches.
Any ideas?

I do not collect any "re-makes" and forget which the 24/57 is. A VZ24 or an FN M-24 based rifle? If vz24 use that rod, if a FN M-24 use a FN rod. By the way your post says 47 in title and 57 in body of post.

I've seen several variations in "inches" for the M48-M24/47-M24/56C. 4.5 to 4.75 inches is the common answer. Wouldn't the Yugo use the metric system to measure these? All my Yugo bolt rifles have a cleaning rod 375mm (14 3/4inch) in length. Is there a variation in the rod length of an 1/4 inch?

I expect the Yugoslavians did use the metric system in their nomenclatures. However, in discussion with the Zastava Historian, he converted the dimensions to closest inch measure I guess. Anyhow, those are the figures he gave me just as he sent them.

Keep in mind, the M48- 24/47 are entirely different manufacture and origins from the 24/52C The "correct" cleaning rod for the 24/52C would most likely be whatever was issued with the vz24. The 10" & 12.5" rods were specified for "K98 variations" which would include the 24/52C with its standard length action. I don't know what was standard to the vz24 and I don't know if the Yugos bothered manufacturing shorter rods for those actions or had enough on hand. Interesting question. I'll ask about it.

My24/52C uses the same rod as the M48, 375mm, As does the VZ24. The extra 1/4 from the longer action is from the chamber back on the M24/52C.
Top to bottom, M48, M48B and a M24/52C. You can see the Czech influence in the Yugos.
