Re: Militec-1??
Justin, I've been using militec for a few years now, don't know about it making anything "stiffer" or not, I use it on my bolts, bolt locking lugs, etc., used to use it in the bore, but now I use Kroil after I clean with Shooters Choice and Sweets, use it(Militec)on my son's AR also, I believe it's the best lubricant one can use on a firearm, I did try it in the bore of my Model 70 '06' to "condition" the bore, coated the bore with a thin layer and then shot it to make the lubricant adhere to the metal, don't really know if it does any good, seems to clean up pretty well though. Good stuff. Jay

I use it as a lube in my Cetme the most. It works better than any lube I have ever used.

I have received a sample of this and am wondering about it's applications. If it bonds at a molecular level with the steel, and makes it more "stiff" as stated,...and continually lubricates even at extreme temps,...

then would it not be the perfect bolt lug grease on lapped lugs? And would it not stand to reason that using the oil while breaking in a barrel would make a stiffer and easier to clean bore? Or am I missing something here?

anyone use this stuff?

JustC: Your inferences based on the manufacturer's claims make sense to me, though I haven't proven them.

I use the stuff on the internals of my revolvers, but not on the bores. I get weary of having to heat the parts to make the stuff work, but the parts are indeed quite slippery after the process is complete.

One thing I found was that a part has to be clean for Militec to work -no fudging.
