Favorite Lub

[EddieM]

I like CLP too, and use it quite a bit. I have a new bottle I haven't opened - probably bought it around the time they changed the name to Safariland. I did notice they dropped Military Spec #'s from the label. I worried a bit whether it would be as good, but still has information about the Teflon on the back. I always forget to shake the bottle before using, though. I have a bunch of others including "Corrosion-X" which was highly recommended 25-30 years ago.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned "Frog Lube" - I helped a guy look "all over the place" for it at a huge Gun Show in Portland several years ago, and then he did't buy any! I think he was going to use it on his "Bushmaster." Seems like guys coming back from Iraq had recommend it to him.

Pictures below are of the older and newer bottles of CLP. Also a picture of some old boxes that my brother and I figured we needed to shoot the ammo from, before it got any older. I'm pretty sure it was from the mid 50's or possibly early 60's. That picture should have gone in the recent thread where old ammo was discussed, but was busy with other stuff at the time. I'm pretty sure that ammo was bought at a gas station about a mile from where I live now. The owner's grandson now operates the station, but no longer has Sporting Goods like they did in the "Good Ol' Days!" - Bob
