    Pro-Gold gun lube

    Are you saying that Pro-Gold is slide Glide or are you recommending it? No, its not the same product. ProGold oil has formulation issues which cause corrosion on steel.

    Any G96 Fans ?

    G43X

    Sorry but I just don't get the X. If I'm going to carry a 19 grip then I'm carrying a 19.

    Anyone Wet Tumble?

    I've been wet tumbling for a few years. I built my own tumbler using a 6" diameter PVC pipe. It holds a gallon of brass. I tumble for 2 hours, using ArmorAll wash and wax and a 1/4 teaspoon of Lemishine. The ArmorAll works even better than the Dawn dish detergent I was using previously. After...

    Strike Hold?

    Has anyone else tested this stuff? I bought a small botttle at a gun show thinking it was snake oil. I tried it recently and it melts away burnt residue and carbon in the blink of an eye. It's pretty amazing. I used on on guns that I had previously cleaned thouroughly and all kinds of gunk came...

    30W ND motor oil observations

    While reading my Dillon 550 and 650 reloading press manuals it says to use 30W oil to lubricate the ram and pivot points. It also warns against using penetrating oils (which I had been using before reading the manual, duh). The manual did not specify to use detergent or non detergent oil. So I...

    Any knowledge of Dumonde Tech True Blue?

    I've used it on bicycle chains and it rusts like crazy over the winter months. I've used their gold and blue oils and had the same results with each.

    Need grease suggestions for a pistol application

    I should also mention the CZ barrel lug is unique in that it's an oval ramped slot and not a link that is common to 1911's. Slide stop pin breakage is common so I'm trying to find a grease that resists "pound out" (as it's called in the Amsoil commercial) and provides a metal to metal cushion...

    Thx for your replies. So is the Amsoil commercial overpriced BS?

    Need grease suggestions for a pistol application

    I am looking for a grease to use in a CZ pistol application, specifically where the slide stop pin goes through a slot in the barrel. The barrel bottom lug slides on this pin and the pin gets hammered at each end of the sliding surface during each cycle of the pistol slide. I figured a grease...

    Brake fluid as a bore cleaner?

    We are discussing Brake fluid. I mistyped brake cleaner in an above post but I’m unable to edit it for some reason?

    Brake fluid as a bore cleaner?

    My second reply should have read brake FLUID and not brake cleaner. I am unable to edit the thread for some reason?

    Brake fluid as a bore cleaner?

    Thanks for your reply. I tested good ole' Hoppe's #9 solvent too and even though it gets great reviews it couldn't hold a candle to brake cleaner which I found interesting. I'm not proposing leaving brake cleaner in the bore or internals or using it as a lubricant but merely as a cleaner. I do...

    Brake fluid as a bore cleaner?

    So I am watching YouTube and this guy is testing all sorts of gun oils. He would burn some gun powder, on a piece of steel and then test different gun lubes and cleaners to see which one removed the burnt powder residue. I was bored yesterday so I tried this myself and found some interesting...
