Type 38 cleaning rod

**ShaveTail** · 01-26-2010 01:16 PM

Argh! For some reason I can't find any information on the correct length cleaning rod for a Type 38 (Non-carbine). There seem to be two: 24" and 21.5"

Which one do I need??

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Huh. Neither one. Thanks, I guess I'll keep looking.
