So is this the only thing I need to clean, lube, &amp; protect my AR15? No other liquids or anything?

If this is all you had, you would be OK. I have gun oil, cleaners, and other products, but I am really pleased with just using CLP.

I clean my EAA Witness Elite in mine. Pick up some of the gun cleaner solution though, I used just water and dawn, it did a great job but the metal started to rust before I could get it all dried off and sprayed down with tri flow. Its the same cleaner that Hornaday sells just a lot less. I clean all kinds of things in it, from cpu heat sinks to handguns

I bought this one for my dad, but I have 2 others for my Smith & Wesson and my Beretta, and neither one of these needs any lubrication to work perfectly. Have you tried this loader with more than one type of ammo?I would instect the feed ramps for and burrs or imperfections, short of that or the ammo being the problem, I would send it back and get a replacement item. All mine work great and my dad says his works great, you may just have a bad one.Sorry, I hope this helps.Taylor

Be careful. Some expecially with any regular gun solvents.Best to check with Crosman.

I have not had an issue with it while not using the lubrication. Personally, I don't think it needs it. I had an older one that worked fine without that as well. Hope this helps! :)

I have had great luck with a foaming lubricant/cleaner (CLP Break Free). I spray it down the barrel and let it form up and sit, then pull it through with the snake. The residue that stays behind acts as a protectant/lubricant. Hope this helps.

All guns should be cleaned from the chamber end when possible. You risk damaging the bore by cleaning from that end. The Wheeler tool is an excellent tool for the AR style rifle.

sure , it is non toxic and rather mild , in addition, for a complete cleaning , I use hoppes for the bore , and wipe down the gun with gun oil if it will be stored for awhile .

you could use it as a ram for the included cotton swatches, but unless your barrel is metal and rifled there would be no point in using the brush or oil in the barrel. I suppose you could use the oil for the action. I watched a couple of videos on youtube for cleaning airsofts, I dont think this will work as expected depending on the design of the airsoft. this is a push through setup, unless you can get an open breach it will not work well for you. from what I have seen the preference is for light silicon grease, usually in a spray. I think you should go with alcohol for cleaning the barrel instead. looks to me that dry barrels are better for airsoft. BB's may smear if you get your FPS high enough, the alcohol should deal with that. suggest dissasembly and cotton swabs if at all possible.

I'm not sure, but I am sure that it is important to use the right lube on the right parts. If the literature that came with that gun is unclear, I would inquire at www.UmarexUSA.com.

Yes, this will clean your AR-15. You might also want to check out the Remington SqueeGee.

This unit can easily handle the slides on most handguns as well as revolvers. I have cleaned parts from my AR-15, as well as my Glocks, Springfield XD, and Beretta pistols Normally, plastic or wood parts (grips) should be removed and the cleaning action is better with a basic teardown of the weapon. ONE CAVEAT - You must NOT use the Brass Cleaning Solution used for cleaning spent Brass! Hornady also makes a Gun Cleaning Solution to use instead. It also works for most steel and Stainless steel items. If one is into Clock Repair, then you would use the Brass Cleaner and not the Gun Cleaner Solution.

Brass should be softer than your bore on your guns so it should not score. Also this is a patch holder so you should always used with a patch with or without the clearning solvent. Use with a good cleaning rod made cleaning much easier. Hope this answer your question.

It will last for a long time. I use it on all of my M&P's, and I had one sit for a year without use and when I took it apart it still looked fresh. Another good thing about the Slip 2000 EWG IS, it doesn't collect debris from shooting, I take most of my M&P's out weekly to the range, because I'm an instructor so I'm always at the range. Last week I put 500 rounds of TulAmmo through my 9mm M&P Shield and at the end of the day when I disassembled the pistol for cleaning, all of the parts were still well lubricated unlike regular oils that burn off, this stuff is great. Can't beat it in my opinion and not messy clean up either. Another good choice is Slip 2000 EWL synthetic oil, also great for the non grease parts. Hope I was a help to you sir.

I would not recommend this product for that purpose. I use it on the action of my AR-15. I have a slide fire stock and this stuff is great for keeping everything lubed

From what I have gathered for information regarding the use of lubricants in break barrel rifles, care must be taken when utilizing lubricants in the air chamber (this is where the compressed air is generated and stored until the rifle is shot) and in the area of the breech where the projectile is is placed in the weapon and discharged (shot). From the name listed by this manufacturer "RMCOIL Silicone Chamber oil" this lubricant is used sparingly in the gun's Spring Air Chamber (one or two drops every 500 shots or so). Some "Chamber Oil" manufacturer's supply a special long tube applicator where you would place this applicator down into the spring chamber area and place the two drops directly into the "Air Chamber." As far as utilizing Hoppe's Gun cleaning solution to clean your barrel, this is not recommended by some manufacturer's. By using this cleaning solution you could cause "dieseling" to occur in the pellet chamber and barrel, as the solution residue left after cleaning the barrel, can and will ignite (think small explosion) due to the instantaneous high pressures and temperatures during discharge of the compressed air from the gun's "air chamber." This dieseling should only occur for a short time after you clean your weapon, as the oil residue is burned off. But the dieseling is really a small explosion inside the barrel during it's firing. It may not cause any damage to you or your weapon, but to be safe the manufacturer's certainly do not recommend it. As far as normal lubrication of your weapon (read other than inside the chamber/barrel), you can safely use any lubricating oil that is made for and used for this type of service to protect and lubricate all other weaponry.

It depends on what you're using it for. On some guns traditional oil will "fly" off and leak into other parts of the firearm. Something heavier, like Slip EWL-30 or grease or a semi-fluid liquid, will prevent that from happening. Overall you probably won't notice a difference if you never experienced the above and would simply waste money.I doubt it would gunk up faster. If it is gunking up it probably means you put too much on or you're not storing it properly or you don't have a very good cleaning schedule.
