And Atlas 5 5x1 (521 pictured).Some versions of the Titan, Falcon 9, and New Shepard rockets, and the The Honest John.
Another option is to break for deployment below the first transition (as TB said) but friction fit one of the joints above to allow for inserting a payload. You've probably noticed that many of the models and all of the "real" rocket examples cited so far have the larger section for the carrying of payloads.And you need to figure out where you are going to separate the rocket and deploy the parachute. If you are going to have the chute in the narrow tube, you can have a solid transition piece and everything forward of that can be glued together as a single piece, like one big nose cone.
