    Sinless, from our past PM's I realize you don't favor Froglube either.

    Looking forward to your results with Fireclean bud.

    Yeah I had bad rust problems with Froglube, So far Fireclean has kept my weapon rust free.

    I am excited to test this stuff out and see how well it does.

    Re: Fireclean with AR15

    I was considering trying out some of the others mentioned here but since I'm not one to waste I was waiting until my breakfree was gone. Think this will be the one I try first.

    This is very interesting to me as in all of my observation, Fireclean does far less to prevent it.

    However, I used Froglube on my rifle and did get rust. When I use FireClean, it did not rust. I don't know if something in the powder/primer residue does not get along with FL, or what.

    Frog luge seemed to come streaming out of the upper/lower seem once the gun got really hot. The fireclean seemed to stay on the bolt and upper better.
    However....I was in a hotel for cleaning and did not heat up parts the way some do with froglube.

    Copy that and thanks for the input. Have to place an order from DSG soon. May put some FC on the order to try out. Once I get some bulk .22 I am thinking about doing a test with Fire Clean and Froglube in my M&P 22 with a can and see what chokes first. Hopefully I can do this in the near future.

    I'm curious to know how many coats you guys are using on a completely cleaned/degreased gun to get the silky smooth action. I put one coat on a couple days ago and let it soak in, then another one today and my LE6940 still seems a little gritty when cycling the bolt. Maybe it's because the gun is still fairly new?

    That grit is mainly from the spring, buffer and buffer tube, it will wear smooth soon with a bit of shooting.
    My brother saw Deliverance and bought a Bow. I saw Deliverance and bought an AR-15.

    Charging handle plays a big part in the grit as well.

    It might take a grand or two to get the gun worn in.

    Thanks for the input gents, I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't applying it incorrectly...it was nowhere near as quiet as the video demonstration they have. I guess I'll have to shoot it a bunch and report back.
