POLL: Frog Lube, yes or no?

[Capybara]

The guys over at ar-15 did some of their own tests and it appears that FL is nothing more than snake oil.

Link please?

Never used it, I dont follow the crowds....

[Steve-O]

I rate it highly, the only reason I didn't give it the top vote is that it is the first CLP I have used, so I can't offer a comparative assessment.

[G-forceJunkie]

I've found it works as good an anything else on my pistols and bolt action rifles. I havent tested it enough in the hot and dirty AR platform to comment, so for now they stay with military breakfree CLP.

Only when I'm out of KY.

Great marketing.

[krisjon]

Love the stuff.
Heat it in the microwave, brush on and let it soak in.

I run my guns pretty hard. FL worked fine on my Glocks, but I had some rust issues on a 1911 and I had feeding issues as well. Moved back to grease+oil and my issues went away.

So, no more FL for me. It may work fine for some people, but not me.

Ever time I have tried a lube other than Hoppes 9, I had to clean the gun. As a gunsmith all other lubes are great for my bottom line good luck.
FYI: I do not sell Hoppes I found Walmart and Big5 have better pricing than whole sale.

For those who don't know, it's being heavily pushed at gun shows and is supposedly the best thing since sliced bread. It is a CLP (Cleaner, Lubricant, Protectant) based on food grade ingredients.

So here's a calguns poll to determine the truth about it.

I just bought my first Frog Lube. One thing I notice is that its solvent properties are pretty darned amazing; it removes carbon fouling in an instant.

The test linked to above, while flawed, does put into question Frog Lube's performance in cold environments. That does concern me a bit.

I've always been a Hoppe's #9/Rem Oil guy. The smell brings back fond memories of my childhood. On the other hand, Mrs. Redneck ABSOLUTELY HATES the smell of Hoppe's. Since I enjoy cleaning my guns while sitting in front of the TV, in my recliner, with a cocktail, and since I also enjoy the company of my wife, I tried Frog Lube as a non-smelly compromise. So far, so good.

+1 Excellent, best CLP out there!

[Horton Fenty]

Don't know, don't care.
