I just looked into the cavity of the the butt plate and there is a three section cleaning rod and a metal oiler container that has a knurled head. I don't see a handle for the cleaning rod, one of the cleaning rods has a slit for a patch. I thought there was writing on the rods, but a magnifying glass only shows
case hardening colors.
