The Brownells Revolver Range Rods offer a quick and reliable way to determine if your revolver’s barrel and cylinder are perfectly aligned. This essential tool instantly assesses if the barrel and cylinder are in perfect alignment, crucial for accuracy and performance, and helps identify if the cylinder crane or yoke has been sprung, which can misalign the axis of the barrel bore. The handle measures 10½” long, while heads are 2½” long and made of steel hardened to Rc 52-54. The handle with knurled grip end is threaded to take any of the interchangeable heads, with sizes carefully selected to indicate very small misalignments.
This tool lets you know instantly if a revolver barrel and cylinder are in perfect alignment and if the cylinder crane or yoke has been sprung, making it essential for timing, accuracy jobs, locating cause of lead splatter, and professional service inspections. The range rod comes equipped with interchangeable heads specifically designed to indicate minor misalignments, with caliber-specific heads available for .38 caliber in two diameters—one for Match guns and another for Service guns—and a specialized head for the S&W K-22 with a slightly undersized bore. Heads interchange on the handle except the .17 Caliber Range Rod Handle, which fits only the .17 Caliber Range Rod Head.
