Those of you that voted and commented on " which 45 acp would you choose" I'm the fool that started that one. For those that car/ curious I finally got my permit and license and immediately purchased the FNX 45 in all black. ( only gripe is that is only the 10 rd mag model ) I can't wait to get it out to the range and really fall in love with it. So now. Keeping my new friend clean. I have been trying to finds kits, oils, cleaning sprays, brushes, pads, jags, and also range bags. Hoppes, Birchwood Casey, Ballistol are some of the brands and systems that I have found to be popular. I have also heard of people using Mobil 1 to oil the rails and other parts. If you could point me towards a good instruction link, video it would be a great great help. Looking forward to some tips and tricks. I'll post some pics of my very first handgun up in a little while.

I found this to be an EXTREMELY informative thread and thought this would help out a lot of people here. Over 30 different products were tested. It seems like the best results were from Eezox with Tri Flo, PL10, Corrosion X and Weapon Shield CLP coming in right behind. Now some of these are not lubricants, just made for rust prevention. It’s amazing though how downright horrible some of the popular products faired in the testing. Go to the thread linked above to read more about how he ran the experiment. But to summarize he sprayed the samples with a water/salt mix (to simulate a worse-case scenario) and even left the samples in the rain a few times... Here is the final picture after about a week. There are several close-up pics in the thread on m4carbine.net.- 25 replies
