Have never bought a Taurus. Have had friends who had 'em and bragged on 'em and the "deal" they got, I've just nodded along. Personally, I think their quality control is lacking. And when I put down my cash for a gun, I want a reasonable chance of being pleased with it from Day 1 and staying so...

Solved the problem. Not only have I put Gold Dots back in the .380 and relegated the remaining Precision One to range ammo status, I bought a Sig P365.

I just keep the printouts from the service folks, cash register receipt stapled to 'em, in a three-ring binder.

Originally Posted by bubbatime The shooting the bull series, all of it, is garbage science. Garbage in, garbage out, laugh out loud results. It's too bad that so many quote his nonsense. And take his results as gospel. OK, enlighten us as to why it's garbage science. Are the Luckygunner ones...

The price of this stuff, even if does everything it says as well as it says, puts me into the dubious category. Latest, greatest & fabulous ... more I'm around, more I think it's mostly a crock. There's good lubes, good solvents, good protectants, IMO. Some products may do two of the tasks...

My local Rural King carries the .223 from Geco. Great stuff for the price.

Interesting replies. Just wanted to see what everyone's using. I think I'm going to stay with G96 ... the G-96 Complete Gun Treatment and/or the G96 Gun Oil (same stuff as the "Treatment," but in liquid, per the maker). I've been using it for years and did recently get a bottle of the G96...

Blogger named DIY_guy did a test of 46 products that's pretty famous on gun boards. Thing's a sticky most everywhere. It's good reading. Here's a link: http://www.dayattherange.com/?page_id=3667

Question: Which CLP product do you like and why?

Hey, I absolutely keep some of the stuff around. The little 1.5 oz spray can in the range bag can make for a quick clean/lube solution. Have put it to use at youth shoots where literally thousands of rounds are being sent through provided guns. That and a quick brushing gets em back up and going...

Originally Posted by Driz Originally Posted by MGF1964 I've got both the LCP and a S&W 642. Your mileage may vary, but IMO J frames just don't pocket carry as easily as small .380s. Granted, they do pack more cartridge and granted they are almost certainly "5 for sure." But also true: More felt...
