any thoughts on militech
saw a site on militech, sounds like it might be the ticket. just want to know if any of you have used it, and if it is as good as they advertise it to be, or if it falls short of what they say it is, but is still a good product never the less. or should i pass it by. i know they offer a free sample of it and their grease, but i want a review before i trust it!
it's not the type of gun you have in the heat of a battle that counts, only if you have enough ammo for it, lets face it, a gun without ammo is only as good as a base ball bat!!

Hoppes is the name must go to for gun oil, as a Hoppes Gun and Reel Silicone cloth can be found in or near most gun collector's work benches.
As for grease, I use so little, that I have little experience on it. I have only recently begun using it lightly on the rails.
I have, however, heard the same thing from people who have been shooting for decades re: oil & grease.
In closing, generally greasing the rails might be more of a competition-shooters routine, just an such a shooter might have more experience in absorbing the fractional minutiae of a handgun's cycling.0 -
I received their free samples a while back. I like the militech grease (I use a very small amount in critical areas), but only use the the oil (a small amount) on the bushing area of my 1911s. I understand it is an outstanding lubricant, but lacks as a long-term preservative. For all other areas, I use FP-10.
You may try a search on the 1911forum (.com) or ar15 (.com) in the maintenance/cleaning forums for more info on militech products. The shooters on these foruns have done some in-depth testing on various cleaning products.0 -
I have used Miltec for about 6 years now, purchased several gallons of it for my agency. An outstanding lubricant, one of the best I have ever seen or used. However, it is not the best rust preventative as fourdees says. For a carry gun that is well maintained it works great. If it is going to be storred for a long time, you would need to use a long term perservative. 0 -
thanks for the info, think i'll try it

same as above. i tried their free sample and then ordered a couple of years supply (brownells stocks this now). i use cleanzoil on the outside for rust protection and on the wood 0
