Cable Chamber Rod

Here is the link to Hoppes website. I got the 12 Guage one because that's all the gun shop had. I bought a couple of 20 guage brushes. I just wrap a patch around a brush for the wiping out stage. That seems to work better than a slotted tip or jag.

Here is the ProShot set up top and the Hoppes bottom.

Here is the Hoppes rod going in

Here is the Proshot with its shotgun adapter.

The Hoppes T-handle helps too get enough torque to clean the chamber.

Use the shotgun sizes for the Martini. The rifle ones have smaller cable and aren't rigid enough.

As far a cable rods go, it's only an idea in my mind. Take a piece of cable the same diameter as the flexible chamber rod, about 6-8 inches longer than the bore, put a handle on one end and threaded ferrule on the other. You would need a piece of cable pretty close to bore size to work. I tried it with a length of 1/8 cable like Pro shot uses.. all it did was coil up in the bore.

Safety lever should'n't cause any problems. Just remember block out first- in last.

If the action is a Greener--I don't think it is-- you will have to fully assemble the trigger guard with all its parts and then pull the extractor pivot pin out and then let the front of the guard drop down to get the block in.

It's a very simple once you are fimaliar with it.
