How much does this add to the barrel length. I have an AR with a 24" barrel and need to know the proper cleaning rod length

Add about 3" on the length from the end of the upper receiver to the tip of the barrel. It slides in just past the o-ring on the back.

It sticks out the back of the open upper receiver approximately 3-4" I would say. I would measure the entire upper from charging handle to end of barrel. Then give yourself another 4-5"? Hope that helps.

As you know, the small end fits inside the barrel, the remainder fits inside the upper essentially replacing the BCG and the charging handle length. Hence, it will add about 8" to your barrel length. I recommend Dewey cleaning rods - top of the line.

This does not add to the barrel length. This goes into the receiver and guides your cleaning rod thru the reciever... I believe that all AR cleaning rods are the same length.

Interesting that I get this question today.My friend and I are running 20 inch barrels I am using a 34 inch rod and it clears the muzzle brake by two inches.We did a little measuring.You can use a 32 inch rod on a 20 inch barrel so for your 24 inch barrel you will need a minimum of a 36 inch rod.This number does not include the cleaning jag or brush for the tip of the rod.

Most of the thing sits inside the upper when installed, basically sitting where the bolt would go. Only the last 2" (give or take) stick out past the upper.

No. Your barrel length is measured from the breach face (chamber) to end of barrel. This will add overall length, but as far as the ATF is concerned, a 14.5" barrel is still a 14.5" barrel, no matter the muzzle device used. Unless the muzzle device is permentally attached.

I used it on my ar and it worked fine, I had to remove the screw on piece at the end of the barrel. Hope this helps.

I have mini14 bought this for it ,i have the 18 inch. Ordered the 6 inch., looks great will help the barrel to be stabalize and will reduce heat from the barrel , highly recommented ,no regrets... will look like m14

Yes. It will make your barrel 16 inches overall. However, if you are looking to take your 14.5 inch barrel to legal length with this it will have to be permenantly attached to the barrel to consider the rifle legal.

Assuming you are being serious and not a troll. You never want to clean muzzle to chamber if you can help it. The risk is damaging the muzzle effecting the accuracy of the firearm. However with some revolvers this can't be helped so be careful.

I don't know the length but the stock barrell is pretty garbage and you'll want a different one

sorry John C it took me so long to answer your question this single rail add on will fit snug on the barrel it comes with long screws but you should be able to put shorter ones on it Or cut them for a better look

I don't know personally, but these (rough) measurements might help you. The bracket's adjustment screw protrudes down about 1 1/2" below the barrel it's mounted onto. Will probably have to remove the cleaning rod. The bracket itself requires only about 1" of barrel length and the max barrel diameter looks to be about 11/16" (just under 3/4-inch). Good luck.

It's 2,25 long 1" diameter. I would use the steel version not this aluminum version on you AR.

drew, i can only tell you that i use this kit with the rods and tips that came with it on my walther p22. since the diamater of the rod is the same, it would travel the length of your rifle. hope this helps. i think this kit is a very nice compilation of cleaning aides. john

This unit will fit your rifle. It might not work as well with the barrel being bedded. It is supposed to to uniform the vibration of the barrel. I have one on my Pre 64, Model 70. I think that it did make a small improvement in my groups.

Hi, The Otis tactical cleaning kit comes with 3 lengths rods, 8 inch, 30 inch and 34 inch. The 34 inch is for small calibers and the other 2 are for everything else.

Not sure why you would need this, but the stainless steel guide rod measurement I found was 0.186" thick. The rod plus the modified springs provide less felt recoil. The previous answers are basically consistent with my view.

I dont see why not. I bought it for my WASR. All AK's have the same barrel length. The hole in you stock should be drilled deep enough for it to accomodate the cleaning rod. You should be ok.

The 12" rod will work just fine for your pistols, and the 27" rod will work for your carbine. Make sure you get the .22 cal rod for cleaning any .22's you own. The larger diameter rod will fit too tight in the .22 barrel.

I think all of the Tipton carbon fiber cleaning rods have female threads so any attachment with male threads should work.The smaller calibers (17-20) have 5X40 threads. The rifle and pistol rods with bores (22-45) have 8X32 threads. The shotgun rods have 5/16 threads.
