Mag Chalk

[carbinero]

By White Sound Defense: http://www.whitesounddefense.com/products/Mag-Chalk.html

"Up until now the best option was to use powered lubricants such as graphite or molybdenum disulfide (moly) in an effort to get effective lubrication in magazines. However graphite, while a decent lubricant, encourages galvanic corrosion in steel and aluminum, so to some degree you are trading one problem for another. On the other hand, moly tends to cause acidic corrosion on surfaces it is in contact with. Neither is an ideal solution and neither holds up particularly well in wet environments.

"The solution developed by White Sound Defense is a liquid product that dries to a thick waterproof semi-solid film that 'sheds' as it comes into contact with particles of grit. It is unlike any grease or lubricant used for general firearm lubrication. The product also forms a thinner highly durable lubrication film that bonds to the internals of the magazine itself."

This is a new product, so I don't imagine there are any reviews out there. I am curious what you engineering minds think about the concept. Do you think the "shedding" would be like minute wax shavings? Also how it might work in capacities other than magazines, such as triggers, where there is also a desire for properties like moly or graphite. Perhaps an estimate of how it would compare to other "base" lubes, like Frog or XF-7.

I'm speechless.

[carbinero]

Come on, everyone needs to make a buck!

[Suwannee Tim]

Yessir, put me down for two bottles. And a bottle of sight grease if you please.

[SomeOtherGuy]

Ummm, all my magazines work perfectly with no added lubrication of any kind.

[mike_556]

I'm speechless.

Yep, same here

[tsunami105]

got to be kidding me -_-...

[kartoffel]

Brought to you by the same place that markets oil especially for "conditioning" the lenses of tactical lights.

[Suwannee Tim]

Lens oil? Hell yeah! Toss in a couple bottles of that there lens oil!

[pilotguyo540]

O_o........
I wonder if this can be used for consensual sex, or is it limited rape?:lol:

[Tweak]

Is humour allowed in the Tech forum or will this get edited too?:confused:

[Suwannee Tim]

I would say humor and ridicule are the two only appropriate responses to folks selling magazine chalk and lens oil.

[duece71]

Chalk it up to people who will buy this stuff..............oh that was bad.

[Suwannee Tim]

A quick trip to Amazon.com (http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/seller/at-a-glance.html?ie=UTF8&isAmazonFulfilled=1&seller=A3OR8MBHZAD8KS) shows they are not exactly selling this stuff by the box car load.

[Quiet-Matt]

I bet that if I used this stufff in my reciever extension, my Double Star "Twang Buster" would be more effective as well.

Moly Di-Sulfide causes corrosion?

Hello McFly!?! Just what the hell is this grey film on all my USGI 30 round magazines?

Carbon?

[Wormydog1724]

Moly Di-Sulfide causes corrosion?


Is that what LaRue uses on his mounts for lubrication on his throw lever device things? That leaves marks on the underside of my upper receiver that has been mistaken many times on the internet as 'rail burnishes'?

[Heavy Metal]

Carbon?

Silly! Carbon's black!

[Tweak]

well, it has been awhile since I seen any :p

[Dirtyboy333]

Oh yeah, this is no joke. In the early 90's, this company made some of the best blinker fluid on the market. Seems that their entering the firearms industry now.

HahA:lol: Wonder what would happen if somebody ordered it....

[GrumpyM4]

PT Barnum was a prophet.

[overbyc1]

Its funny, if you look at the lens oil on Amazon, there is one review, and it damn sure sounds like the reviewer was reading the product description right off the bottle.

[fixit69]

Excuse my language, but un-****ing-real.

[Suwannee Tim]

I think they've got the right idea. Develop a line of products to meet needs people didn't know they had. Like tactical lip balm. Or chrome lined gas tubes........

[DeviousMind]

Better hurry only 5 left in stock:lol:

[The Cat]

They distill it from old milsurp prop pitch.

[glocktogo]

Do they also sell grid squares by the box and 100' rolls of flight line? I'll be they only have 5 left in stock beacuse there's a group buy on TOS. They'll be backordered 6 months once the glowing review in Tactial Guns & Life For SWAT Law Weapons Operators comes out next month! :D

[Suwannee Tim]

How about a bullet tachometer to tell you how fast your bullets are spinning? A Picatinny rail mounted TBI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Turn_and_slip.PNG)?

[Suwannee Tim]

Locking lug wrench, dust door knob......

[fixit69]

Box of rpms, left handed monkey wrench, and fluorescent lightbulb powder comes free with every order, lol

[Suwannee Tim]

I'd love to buy a hole assortment. Tapped holes, round holes, slots, maybe some rectangular holes. When you need a hole, no need to go to the machine shop or the garage, just get one out of the box.

[JSantoro]

I have a sudden urge to tell the nearest PFC to find the Company Gunnery Sergeant and ask him if he knows where the PRC-E7 is.

[Shiz]

Well, I bought some, and I found that it works best if you coat each individual bullet too. Only bad part is, the chalk shoots out the carrier and gets all over your face. That day i got a bloody nose, and it bled all over my lip...needless to say I was surprised!!!

Well a pic is worth 1000 words so....

[Suwannee Tim]

Has anyone ever seen an AR with a rear view mirror? How do you know if someone is sneaking up behind you? A Picatinny rail mounted tactical rear view mirror would be neat. How about a rate of fire indicator? Something to tell you how fast you are shooting. Maybe three displays, instantaneous rate, one minute average and daily average. There are all kinds of things folks need, they just don't know it.

[QuietShootr]

I have a sudden urge to tell the nearest PFC to find the Company Gunnery Sergeant and ask him if he knows where the PRC-E7 is.

Or send him on clock winding detail. The uniform is wet weather boots, BDU pants, PT shirt worn inside out, protective mask, and Kevlar.

(there might be one person here who knows where that was :-P)

I will wait for the tactical magazine lube. I am not interested in buying a commercial grade mag lube.

[Black Jeep]

I may add this to my cleaning/maintenance kit along with the new whizz bang left handed smoke shifter I got.

Wonder if Eagle, TAG, USGG, et. al will make one of these in coyote brown w/ molle straps for my first line belt.

I'll stop when manufacturers stop with this bs. Key the the berm, infantry shell markers, rail system ladder index scrawl, bucket of air, and let's not forget the Exc-RMnT polish. Go's with TRD polisher.

[Atchcraft]

I've got to order some! I just scored 50' of gig line off eBay... Yes!

Frequency grease, dark black paint, a drum of jet wash...

[Suwannee Tim]

I would like to see them make a fore grip fitted with an auxiliary trigger hydraulically linked to an actuator on the main trigger so you could fire the gun with either the left hand or the right. You could your use your left finger alternately with your right finger to double your rate of fire!

[Suwannee Tim]

For that matter you could put little levers in the pistol grip hydraulically linked to the bolt stop and mag release so you could run the gun without changing your grip!

I suggested we take our own photo safari, and somehow we settled on Mugdock Country Park, which was equally difficult to reach by public transport, but more appealing. The forecast was for snow and sleet and all sorts of yuckiness, but the sun was shining and the skies were gloriously blue, so we set out excitedly to Milngavie by bus and started to hike to the park. It all looked a bit daunting on the map, but in reality it was totally manageable and even pleasant. We took a tiny diversion along the way when we spotted a host of huge yellow flowers carpeting the woods along a stream. It was an amazing sight, one neither of us had ever seen! The flowers were like giant yellow plastic lilies or something. I took a million photos, but none truly captured the magic of the scene.
