Klusk2Qmaxx Black Diamond opinions
https://www.qmaxxproducts.com/product/black-diamond/I recently purchased a bottle of this all-in-one product for my Ar. Our range guys swear by this, but I was wondering if anyone else is using this and what you thought of it.

DSgrousecall or email the company and get an MSDS sheet. That will tell you most everything you need to know.

Many gun owners swear by a variety of lubricants that are made by a variety of manufacturers, used in a variety of firearms.
Even the lightest and most volatile lubes work quite well in ARs, as long as they are re-applied with the necessary frequency. The stickier & heavier lubes require less frequent application, as they take longer to burn off.
Survey 100 random AR users, and there could be 30 or 50 or 70 different favorite lubes mentioned, and I suspect all of those users will swear their lube is the greatest thing since the invention of the AR itself.

sigfreundThe simple fact is that just like defensive handgun ammunition, almost no one really knows what the best, or even a superior lubricant is. Without extensive testing involving a large sampling of the countless lubricants and long term experimentation coupled with precise measurements and analysis, it’s always going to boil down to, “Well, the gun still works and no parts have fallen off yet.”
No individual owner will ever have the valid information to attest to much more than that.
