Hello all, as it says I am looking for a cleaning kit for a 1895 src(1920). I could only find one picture in the 95 book, and nothing anywhere else. Not even sure if Winchester made more than one pull through cleaning kit or not. Even if no one has one,a picture of one would be fine, always like to learn. You can pm me, or email [email protected].
thanks
Bill
This was in the Model 1895 carbine (Ser. #84161 cal. 30 GOV 06) that I purchased. There is picture matching this pull through in the 1916 Winchester Catalog. I have no provance concerning this item. It was wedged in the buttstock hole and the previous owner was apparently not aware it was there. RDB

rwsem, This may make your day. I believe those are black pig bristles, not nylon. Check out early the 1903 Springfield pull through information. RDB
And this is a prime reason that I continue to hang out on this forum; always learning…
There was one long bristle on the brush, so I ran a flame under it: stinks like hair!
Technically, the glass is always full; half liquid, half air....

The book is the Standard Catalog of Winchester. It was published in 2000. Edited by David Kowalski. Most of the items in the book came from the Tom Webster collection. He, Ned Schwing, Ray Giles, Dan Shuey and Phil White put the book together. About 750 pages.
