Re: Aussie made cleaning rods
Ok so I received the handles back this week. I won't be sending them out any time soon the finish was atrocious and blotchy all over. Some times a recommendation isn't worth a pinch of shit. Ill be contacting a few companies in other states monday morning to find a better solution.

Re: Aussie made cleaning rods
Put me down for a 20cal rod. My existing one is too short to use with a bore guide.

Re: Aussie made cleaning rods
Ok all I've been like a ghost for the last 6 months with getting crook and all the recovery. I decided to outsource the handles before I had surgery so I could keep these moving forward. What a total f@ckup that was on my behalf. The company I used opened my drawings in a program that doesn't transfer the dimensions across so They made them up as they pleased and never let me know. 3 months of trying to get hold of these clowns after I found this out has been a total nightmare. They won't answer phone calls or email and when I went up to see them conveniently the manager "wasn't there" after I saw him walk off. I got everything back Friday and begun fixing them so they aligned with my drawings. I now have 142 handles ready for anodising.
If everyone that's still interested can send me a pm or reply here with calibers and the length you want I'll compile a list and get them made while the handles are away for anodising.
Cheers
Wardy

Re: Aussie made cleaning rods
Good to see you are on the road to recovery and I hope it is a smooth trip.
For me a seventeen cal and I have got to find a tape measure for length
Will let you know
900 mm should be good.

Re: Aussie made cleaning rods
Missed I'll make them 915mm/ 36" for all 17 cals and I'll make the 20 cal ones 1000mm/ 40". They will be assembled and ready to go end of the week at this stage. The 22 cal and 7/30 cal are still away for anodising.
Cheers
Wardy.
