This whole thread makes me LOL so damn hard after I ragged on Froglube about 1-2 years ago and everyone told me I was wrong to ask questions and to just use it because it was amazing.
That (FL) remind me of WD-40. Many years ago hell I'm old) all of my shooting group used & swore by the stuff. Well it probably did retard rust but it turned so gummy after setting for months on a firearm the gun would get so gummy, THEN hard, that, for example you could not rotate the cylinder on a revolver.
Have used Mobil 1 syn for years rifles handguns shotguns and per volume ....cheaper
On Glocks, it doesn't matter much to me. I use FireClean because it's my preferred lube, but is use anything on a Glock.
Frog Lube slowed the action on my 1911 in 48 degree weather to the point that it barely chambered a round. I'll try to link the video.

Proven combat techniques may not be flashy and may require a bit more physical effort on the part of the shooter. Further, they may not win competition matches, but they will help ensure your survival in a shooting or gunfight on the street. ~ Paul Howe
I uploaded the video to my flickr but can't link it from my phone. I'll try in a few from the computer or iPad.
To be clear, this is the liquid Frog Lube. Maybe a drop or two on the rails, a drop on the locking lugs and one down into the hammer and sear.
I guess I can just direct link it - http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/24925870@N00/11214693923/
Here's a Glock 19 for an apples to oranges comparison. I'm just linking it to show what a slide should look like on video. I'll eventually take another of the 1911 with FireClean for a fair comparison.
