I use FL on my semi-auto pistols. I like it. I haven't noticed any gumming up.

I have also put it on a new AR upper to compare it to my other ARs, but I haven't been able to get out shooting since. Curse of the new gun, I guess.

I think that one consideration of any cleaner is your local environment. For example, if you live in Minnesota, you will have to consider the cold temperature properties of a cleaner/lub. In Florida, that won't be as important. If you do buy FL, maybe just start using it on one firearm and see how that compares to another in your safe.
