I have a SP, can I just order an AKM rod and have it fit, or by the partial removal of the bayonett lug is in no longer optional?

Does the rifle have a hole in the handguard retainer and the handguard?
Does the front sight base have the little 'nubs" on the bottom which retain the cleaning rod?

If the answer to both questions is "Yes" a standard AK cleaning rod will fit under the barrel and will stay in place.
