    I just bought some and will have to try it out. There is a .pdf on another website where the guy talks about using it, I need to refind that one too.
    Is this what you are looking for?

    I have been contacted by the master distributor for FrogLube and they advised me that if anyone wants to get some free samples to try out then contact them on their website- www.tacticalsanta.com. They will also have a Facebook page up and running shortly- American Froglube Distribution Ltd.

    They will also answer any questions about Froglube as long as it isn't considered a company secret.

    That's it.
    The display board showed the various spin-off products.
    Didn't have FL, but I suspect this was the prime source for them.
    Winning may not be everything, but the endorsements are better.

    It really hasn't got cold around here yet but I put a small bottle of FL oil in my truck.

    the temps dropped in the 30's I think last night. anyway, mid-day today probably 50+ when I got in the truck. the oil had solidified somewhat to where it was a solid form I could turn the bottle over sideways and around and the mass stayed in one place. However it almost instantly started to go back into solution.

    So anyone planning on using it in very cold might need something else perhaps. I was surprised to see this. then again maybe it only gets to a certain level of solid and stops. would be interesting to know.

    I'm in Minnesnowta and the high tomorrow is supposed to be 37* if anyone has any want / ideas for somewhat cold weather tests. I already use FL on all of my firearms but don't let them sit out all night in the freeze.

    I've actually asked (imagine that) the makers of Froglube about cold weather performance. Their response went something like this:

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    "Froglube meets all requirements of MIL-L-63460, including cold weather performance."
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    FYI, MIL-L-63460 specifies that CLP must be effective operating in the temperature range of -60 to +160 F.

    A wise man once said - "Trust, but verify."

    Take it for what its worth. I have not yet been able to use FL in cold weather, so I cannot offer firsthand experience in this specific instance.

    Spoke with Mr Lasky today. He told me that froglube has been 4 ball scar/wear tested and did well and exceeded mil spec for the test. He was not at liberty to tell me the scar measurement.

    There's a flavor-of-the-month thing going on for AR lubes, just as there is for the rifles themselves.

    Few years ago, it was "Militec is essence of the Gods!"

    Then we cast Militec aside, and worshipped at the altar of Slip 2000.

    Now the hot stuff is Froglube.

    Meanwhile, old Univibe pegs along, putting BF LP on the bolt generously, BF CLP lightly everywhere else . . . .

    Already tested it in temps around 17* F with Antlad. worked fine in those limited tests. I will be getting some soon for myself and will be taking it out in sub-zero temps for more extensive testing at low temps.
