Hoppes is about to run out and there have been a lot of higher-tech cleaners out there in the past 5 years. What are you in love with? Thanks. _________________________ | ||

I use Kroil on the bore of my rifles...and hoppes for whatever else...and use just about any sewing oil grade oil or the quart of mobile one I have in the garage for lubricant "Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor.” Robert A.

CLP for general cleaning. Hoppes for when I want a dedicated solvent. Brake Cleaner for serious cleaning/degreasing. | |||

MPro 7. The heavy stuff still gets Hoppes but I need to get some Slip 2000 Carbon Killer to try. Do not send me to a heaven where there are no dogs. Step Up or Stand Aside: Support the Troops ! Expectations are premeditated disappointments. | |||

I’ve been using Lucas recently. It seems to work well. | |||

Kroil works well, but for a good firearm solvent, I haven't found anything that works better than Hoppes 9. Plain old stoddard solvent works well, but Hoppes is a good choice on most finishes, most surfaces, and pretty much everything on the firearm. I just picked up a tall bottle. I use a paint pen to highlight the numbers on my magazines, and to mark them with the pistol, and caliber. I write over the numbers on the magazine, then wipe off the excess. Hoppes takes off everything that isn't number, leaving a nice, crisp white number, easy to read. Hoppes works for all kinds of stuff. | |||

You can mix up a batch of "Ed's Red" bore cleaner yourself. It's a pretty good cleaner. Just Google it for the recipe. "If Gun Control worked, Chicago would look like Mayberry, not Thunderdome" - Cam Edwards | |||

TM bore cleaning solvent and Gunslick foaming cleaner for rifles. For pistols I immersion soak the barrels in original Hoppe’s #9 for a few days. “I don’t want some ‘gun nut’ training my officers [about firearms].” — Unidentified chief of an American police department. “I can’t give you brains, but I can give you a diploma.” — The Wizard of Oz This life is a drill.

Breakfree CLP for quick clean/lube, Hoppes for thorough clean followed by some type of oil/grease, and for really bad barrels Sweets 7.62 | |||

Ed's Red for me. I add the acetone only for shotgun bore cleaning. | |||
