I picked up some Frog Lube and haven't formed an opinion yet. I'll run it on my pistols for a while. Time will tell.
I still keep Mobil 1 synthetic motor oil and wheel bearing grease on the reloading bench for my rifles. I just use Mobil 1 oil when the temperatures stay in the single digits and haven't seen an AR bolt carrier slow down due to cold weather. The carbon cleans off easier than when I used Break Free CLP.

Remember the earlier comment about the fool? Im pretty dumb but im no fool...
I have used Froglube by way of my easily swayed, loose "walleted" buddy.
It looked like lube, it smelled like lube and it worked like lube. My gun even went bang.
I then proceeded to back to the same quart of mobil 1 ive been using for the past five years of HEAVY shooting...
Im all for progressive development but the AR is an internal combustion engine masquerading as a gun. If a damned Indy car can get by on Mobil 1 i am pretty sure my gun will be ok without Navy Seal Jizz liberally spooged all over it...
You are a genuine toolbag if you have your EDC "loadout" in your signature line...
The coldest ive shot was 31 degrees in Georgia. I had zero issues with Mobil 1.
Rags remove carbon too.
There's a whole lot of "I feel" and "I heard" and "it smells nice" in this thread instead of a whole lot of actual data...
Until someone figures out a way to TEST these lubricants in some quantifiable way i will continue laughing my ass off at the people that shell out money for this shit. I just think its horrifically sad that these companies prey on the inability of the consumer to actually quantify this stuff. Instead, they happily bandy buzz words, marketing speak and allow the market to buy into it.

Never tried FireClean... but I can tell you Froglube is a shitload better than Mobil1. I converted after diggin in my cynical heels for a LONG time.
There's no one quicker to call horse shit on a new lube than me. And Froglube is much better at staying put/staying wet in the BCG than Mobil1 ever was for me.
