I have not had anything but 100% positive response with the product and recently used it to clean and lube several 60+ year old guns and it worked very well. I haven't had any problems with lint or dust buildup on the guns and I like the fact that i don't have to swab a bunch of grease on the guns, just a very light coat of Gibbs, wipe off and I'm "good to go". No rust, stains, etc... I'm not a salesman or rep for Gibbs, just a very satisfied customer.azasadnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17987598973625242728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33073529.post-48829160064360925062008-03-20T18:54:00.000-05:002008-03-20T18:54:00.000-05:00I use Kroil to clean my guns.

If there's heavy copper fouling, I hit the bores with Wipeout bore foam after my regular cleaning. For lube, I use a product called Penetro-90, that I get online for about $8 a can. Makes actions alot slicker than most oils on the market. For rust prevention, the best thing I've found is Eezox. Wonderful at keeping metal objects rust-free.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33073529.post-40624283502135753112007-12-03T23:20:00.000-06:002007-12-03T23:20:00.000-06:00I've never touched the Gibbs stuff.

They tend to last a while 'round here.<BR/><BR/>I switched from Hoppes #9 to Hoppes Elite a couple of years back. I'll still use the old #9 if it's handy, nothing against it, but after I read a bit from George Hill (I think it was him) on the Elite stuff working so much better I tried it out. I swabbed a few bores with #9 until they came out clean. Then I hit them with Elite. The patches came out black.<BR/><BR/>I'm sold.<BR/><BR/>I use Breakfree CLP sometimes, never noticed anything really special about it. It works. I've got some Slip 2000, and I forget what I read that got me to buy it, but it doesn't give off any fumes, so I like that about it.<BR/><BR/>Actually I just ran across a blog post from a liberal Democrat woman (Just an Earth Bound Misfit) thanking me for letting her know about Slip 2000. She hates the fumes given off by Hoppes and said she wouldn't have gone shooting that day if I hadn't told her about Slip 2k because she used to dread cleaning them so much.<BR/><BR/>As far as lube on a 1911 goes I can't offer much advice. I only one own 1911 and don't shoot it a whole lot. However, there's a poster on thehighroad.org that goes by the online name 'sm' that's pretty well respected and he likes using automatic transmission fluid as a lubricant. Or motor oil.Justin Buisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17562279125607977323noreply@blogger.com
