Militec Has anyone evaluated it?

A buddy of mine just sent me a video of investigators saying CLP was failing miserably in the desert. We both are former Marines and find this disturbing if it is true.

Of course this is a link from their site but I am wondering what you folks here think? I am ashamed to say I have not heard of it.

I have been using Militec for a while, it's a pretty good lube, but so is Breakfree CLP when properly applied. I prefer Militec for many applications because it's a thicker lube and stays where it's applied.

I still keep a can or two of CLP around for applications that require me to get more penetration into deeper parts of the firearm.

FWIW...

I Think its a great product. I've been using it since the mid 90's doswhat it says it does really helps keepthe barrel easier to clean.

However I started using a better "synthetic" product called Eesox give better overall corrosion protection.

As with either product the more you treat your firearms with it the better the protection.

Militc is good stuff. It's been discussed a bit here and THR, try the search function for more info.

Great lube and a great company IMO. They sent my team a big box of it on our last deployment. I emailed and asked them what it would cost to get enough for 12 guys for 120 days. They asked for my mailing address and two weeks later a big box of it showed up free of charge.

I'm using Militec lube on my weapons right now here in Iraq. Been using it for the past 3 months with no issues. Of course, any lube over here will attract dirt and dust in this environment, but that's why we clean our weapons often.
