Got my replacement cleaning rod bag from Numrich (e-gunparts) today.

Bought a complete M-14 cleaning kit from them, and the rod bag was completely rotted thru. Called to mention that it was bad, and they should check their stock. Expected I'd have to order a new one, but the nice lady that took the info, said they'd ship me a new one. Even had a spacer left inside, so I'm a bit ahead.

Now to see if Springfield Armory is gonna do anything about the oversized walnut9?) stock on the rifle I bought. Boyds stocks are evidently known for their over size. Course I might just buy a used m-14 stock from numrich for shooting purposes. And maybe a complete flash suppressor and front sight, so I can get a bayonet on it. No flange on the one Springfield puts on the rifle, so the evil drive by bayonet can't be put on the rifle.
