Same with my M48A and M24/47. They are not long as the bore.

Thumbs up

The rods were used in Garrison, with an additional handle/extension piece. In the field, the troops used the pocket kit with string or chain for the bore pull-thru.
Mosins are the same way - the cleaning kit has the handle/extension for the too-short rod.
