I should have just bought the damn thing. I have a 24in barrel on my 5.56 AR and I damaged the crown. It was most likely the old army cleaning kit that I had to add extra sections of rod to get all the way down.
So I have a new crown but I saw the nylon rod at BassPro was $40.
A bargain compared to what I spent on the rifle but it seemed like it was out of line.
Hard to order online since it is an odd size to ship.
