Does anyone know the pin size on a stainless joint on a Abe Rich Cue ?

Looking for the pin size on aAbe Rich Cue ?

Should be a short blunt nose 5/16x14 if I recall correctly. Possibly an 18. It’s been a while since I’ve had a Rich, though my Sal Rich cue is 5/16x18.

Yes & thx I bought a unplaced ABE RICH BRAZILIAN ROSEWOOD WHICH HAS A STAINLESS JOINT & a series of 20 mother of pearl dots ABOVE & below the handle area & has a off white cortland like wrap …and I only bought it after reading about his past history during the war with Germany …. I couldn’t resist , great workmanship no doubt a HOF CRAFTSMAN

I tried a 5/16x14 joint protector on my abe rich Q and it did not fit
so my guess 5/16x18
