[QUOTE="FormerParatrooper, post: 425183, member: 21034"] A lot of firearms that were breech loaded still had "ramrods". The practice continued for many years and even on bolt action rifles of WWII and after. They were used mostly for cleaning and clearing obstructions from the barrel. Placing it on the rifle made sense because it didn't have to be carried separately and was harder for the soldier to lose. [/QUOTE]
