Flight Pundit

At a recent gun show in AZ I talked to a vendor selling Gun Juice and was very skeptical of its use. I have never been a believer in fix every thing additives. I was have always been a skeptic about claims that this cure all oil would fix this or that. but looking at the 1911 the lady had I liked the look of what the gun juice did to the metal and how the gun felt like it was dry polished and the action was very very smooth. I bought a 1.5 ounce bottle of Microlon Gun Juice to try on my new kimber .45 Pro Cary II and an old 30/30 that was pretty dirty.

I went to Ben Avery with this little bottle and followed the procedures first with the .45. the with the 30/30 on a sighting stand.

“WOW” is all I could say. It took time to shoot one round and patch over and over again but I ran 10 patches through each and then shot 100 rounds each after that. I gained about 3 inches rise on the 30/30 and after 100 rounds I pulled 2 patches through (dry) and the second patch was clean. I put some CLP on a brush and pulled it through several times and then a wet patch and it was wet but clean.

I might have to try some Wolf Russian made ammo and see if it can shoot the cheap ammo now without having to spend hours and hours cleaning it afterwards.

I bought a 4 oz bottle (can) of gun juice so I could condition the frame and slides on the .45 and a couple other weapons and followed the Mad Ogre review  of gun juice. I heated my oven to 500 degrees and put in the broken down parts for a couple minutes. I then used a patch to apply the gun juice to the metal parts and allow to dry. I did this process 10 times letting the parts cool after each application. I can see a difference in working the action and the pull of the slide. It is much smother and sure than before the conditioning.

If you like to shoot but don’t like to clean afterwards (at least for a couple hours) try Gun Juice.
