OCI With Militec-1

[Unicorn01]

Second time around reading. This part makes me sick to my stomach and I'm not even a vet:



The company owners know the product is inferior and they are trying to force this down the militaries throat, despite failing the tests. ESPECIALLY for gun lubrication in war. Possibility someone could have died as a result of blind faith in this product.

I tried it for a while. In my anecdotal experience it did nothing it claimed. It didn't make any firearm I tried it on easier to clean (M16, M249, M60, M249, and some personally owned firearms, HK USP, the front of the cylinder on a Ruger GP100 or S&W 686). It did NOT prevent rust at all. Clean a bore with solvent to remove everything, leave it wet with Militec and there was rust the next day.
If it lived up to the claims, then there should have been noticeably less stoppages, especially with the M249 and blanks.
Break Free and Royco CLP had less buildup of carbon/powder fouling, even on areas that are not supposed to have any oil applied at all. I oiled a few of the pistons on some M249s just to see which would be cleanest and easier to clean... it wasn't the Militec. CLP and Tetra were both better about that.

The military requested tons of fluid for every piece of equipment. That contract lasted years. It's been tested by the ultimate vehicles with good reports.
Try it, it works on so many levels of machinery.

Smooth shifts, quiet, smooth start ups
Smooth quiet shifts more power climbing the mountain

Wow! Talk about a flash from the past. My oldest son is 28 years old and before he was born in 1998 I purchased my last gallon. I used to purchase Miltec-1 for $200 a gallon and that was with tax and shipping the first gallon I purchased was just $149 for a gallon.

Never noticed a difference in any car or truck I used it in I did find that problematic semi-auto handguns and rifles suddenly ran perfectly with it's use with not replacement of springs or ammo changes. Did not matter if it is center fire or rimfire.

Like a lot of things they priced the product beyound my margin of return limit! During GWOT they went bat-blank-crazy on price and pushed it like made to the military.
