    Hoppes's #9

    Walmart online is handling cleaning supplies I used to buy from Amazon. Just saying its worth a look for cleaning supplies and other firearm accessories.


    Its my hope Walmart will expand product lines and challenge anti free speech Amazon.

      Where can one actually buy the original formula Hoppe's #9?
      Back when the ammo/DOJ check started up, I bought a bottle of Hoppe's #9, opened it up for a pistol cleaning and it smelled NOTHING like the original formula.

        Walmart has sold Hoppes for years on line.

          How much do you really spend on gun cleaning supplies? A few bucks a year? It's nothing compared to all of the other stuff I buy on Amazon.

            You can still buy it in the store[wal-mart], for less than $3.00 for the 5 oz. bottle. While you're there, get a can of Kroil and your cleaning/lead removal chores are over.

              Hoppe has not changed the formula. Plus a little goes a long way.

                    Choosing between Amazon and Walmart is like choosing between a turd and a douche. Maybe Walmart currently has a better free speech track record but they're complete A Holes in other areas. Their predatory practices toward small businesses, and driving small businesses out of the marketplace, for example, is legendary.

                      Why support Walmart anyway? They are part of the problem. Feeding Chinese goods to the masses and driving small business to bankruptcy. They also have bought into the anti narrative by stopping to sell Ammo.

                        I purchase my cleaning supplies and paper targets at either Big-5, or my LGS. When Wally World sold ammo, I would buy it there because the price was right (pre shortage, of course). I very rarely buy anything there now.

                          All fine and dandy; just letting some know where it's found cheaper. I won't need any till I run out of primers. Think I bought my last Hoppe's #9 at Philipp's a WHILE ago. Big bottle.

                            Not sure how long ago, maybe 10 years or so, Hoppe's removed nitrobenzene from #9. The smell was distinctly different than the original.

                            Life's journey is not to arrive safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy schit...what a ride"!!
