Can this be used on firearms?

I would not recommend it due to an experience I had using this product.It contains two solvents. One of them, "heptane" is rather agressive and will eat into plasticsas it did on my bicycle when I used it on my chain. Some of it dripped onto the plastic chain protector ring and stained it.It would not rub off due to it's eating into the surface of the plastic.If your gun has plastic grips or accessories, I would steer clear of this product.FWIW, the list of uses shown on the product label does not include firearms.

Yes, however I would advise against it due to sticky residue nature of the product

It would work but I don't recommend it since there are likely some toxic chemicals in it. No need to expose oneself to more toxins if you can help it. There's enough lead exposure as it is when shooting and cleaning. I recommend Ballistol.

Yes...I Used It On the Action of My .22 Auto. Personal I Think the Dry Wax is Better. I Know it makes a Better Pellet Lube. Hope I Helped Ya..

I have tried them on several weapons, rifles, shotguns, spring and aeg and co2 pistols and worked great. Hope this helps.

I suppose you could if your handgun has a top rail for mounting . Its a big sight. It would be kind of awkward on a pistol.

Not sure. I've used Hoppes solvents and oils for years on my firearms but never on airguns. When I do clean an airgun I use air tool oil which you can buy at any hardware or tools retail store. Your best bet is to call a Umirex technical assistant at their customer service number. In general avoid making the parts "wet' with lubricant, it just drains off and attracts/holds dirt to the part. A really thin coat of grease at at heavy wear point of friction would be more effective. By all means keep the lubricant, especially petroleum, away from the seals of the air chamber where the air getscompressed or released under high pressure. It can damage the seals and there is some high heat that occurs when hi-pressure air is explosively released.

Yup. I use it on my airsoft gun, 22lr, and pellet gun. They say it's weak, but if you don't smash it, it works fine.

I don't see why you couldn't use it on an air gun, I have mine on a .308 sniper rifle.

Yes. It is designed to be fired on numerous platforms and calibers. It is rated to at least 1000gs, and I have used it on a 5.56, 300 blackout, and a 10mm pistol with no problems.

Sorry I have not used it on guns , just my backhoe, I would think it would work well on guns also but can't say I have used it for that.

Yes. It will work on any firearm muzzle that is magnetic. Did not work for me on a Stainless Steel barrel.

Yes it can, I've used it on all sorts of rifles. And I've liked it on all of them. The only thing I would look for is what kind of rings you need, one inch 30mm or dovetail. Hope this helps b

I am not sure, I use it to treat the wood gun stock on M-1 Garand. The labels on the can do not discuss anything about painting. I hope that helps.

While it can be used on a handgun, I don't think it's practical or useful. Better off having a RMR attached.

I haven't and the bottle says "Keep away from heat and flame. If contact with skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water". So I wouldn't suggest using it on a gun. I was told a LONG time ago that gun oil is to be used on guns. I do use a dab of gun grease on the slide runners only. I generally use dri-slide on my Dillon RL550B reloading press, on the slide for loading the primers. That action tends to get a little gummed up with the powder dust that comes out when the old primer is pushed out. If I keep that lubed with dri-slide, it doesn't attract the dust like oil would.

I would say yes, again that's my opinion. I used it on a still operational WWII handgun, cleaned & lubricated the firearm three days prior to testing it at a range. Immediately prior to testing the firearm I wiped the inside of the barrel clean of lubricant / oil with the rest of the gun in a thin coating of lubricant. Upon completion cleaned & lubricated it again and put away. Worked well for me, do not see a reason why it shouldn't work on a rifle like yours (considering the rate of shoots / sec. to be a lot higher). This is not a very viscous lubricant, so you should have good penetration into hard to reach areas for good lubrication.

Sorry ,I bought mine as a precaution. I haven't used it yet , but it is for guns so it should work.

I have not used it on a shotgun. The application we had was for AR15s, and it works great on those.

I don't think you would want to use on the actions. It works great to lube cable housings I use it in the shift cable of my UTV to keep it from freezing in the winter. It is a liquid and if you get it on your hands it has to wear off. I think it would be way to messy to use on a gun action.
