    LE MkI/ME MkI clearing rod

    I recently came into a very nice 1896-dated Long Lee. Ten or so years ago a fellow by the name of Neil (aka Oak Leaves) made up a handguard and clearing rod for my Martini-Enfield MkI. Would love to find a similar rod for my LE MkI if anyone is still making these or might have one they’d part with. Neil’s does fit my LE MkI perfectly and the bayonet seats over it.

    Do you happen to have any contact info for the maker?

    I received two clearing rods from Darren just recently. They are excellent additions and I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction!
