Most American made cleaning gear has the same 8-32thead size.
You can screw rifle or pistol tips and brushes on rifle and pistol rods.
Hoppe's use the standard 8-32 thread size so most any tips and brushes will fit.
Exceptions are military rods and tips, and some rods like many Dewey rods that use a different thread.

Not to confuse things, but Dewey sells adapters if you ever need them at some point for their rods or oddball sizes on other rods. I've used a few.
