I'm looking for a one piece brass range rod for my GPR flintlock. Any suggestions for sources??

How do I keep the steel from rusting?? Anything besides oiling it??Valkyrie said:I made mine. I bought 48” 3/8” cold rolled steel rod from Lowe’s. Drilled and tapped it to 10-32 and cut to 42” and added a wooden handle and a muzzle guard. Works perfect and cost about $20.
