Good to get out some of the hard to reach gunk and apply lubricants just where I want them. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLM Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 More information is needed such as what kind of gun? For example, one of my Open blasters doesn't even like the "Lite" version unless I thin it with a drop or two of FP-10 and work it in. I do like the fact that it doesn't run out of the gun.

kmitchl Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I use a 12 cc syringe for vacinating livestock with a 16 ga needle. Cut the pointy part of the needle off with a Dremel so you don't stab yourself. Load up with Slide Glide and you can apply small amounts where they are needed. Keep the cap from the needle for storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkatz44 Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 I have recently purchased some slide guide. My question is could you put too much slide guide on a gun? If so, what would happen? Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it would be possible to put too much causing the gun to be sluggish, but I sorta doubt it. I've seen a Limited gun with so much SG on it that I can't think of a good way to describe it. The gun hadn't been cleaned in something like 1500-2000 rounds and was running perfectly. R, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an M&P Pro and it'll even run dry (like a Glock)....just a tiny bit of lube is all that's really needed, but SG should work just fine.

RaymondMillbrae Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 (edited) I use the red Slide Guide, and like it very much. I was initially using it on a 10mm Kimber Eclipse Custom 2 (medium hot loads), and it worked great. I even remember commenting to my buddy how easy it was to clean the weapon. No scrubbing needed - just the wipe of a rag to clean the nastiest carbon. (That would usually cake on before I started using the Slide Guide). Very impressive! Then I tried experimenting with powders. I used AA No5, and loaded it BELOW the recommended starting FPS...and it was a mess. The Slide Guide mixed with the unburnt powder, and it left tons of gunk all over the innerds of the slide, to include the barrel and slide/barrel lugs. Total disaster. It took a little deduction to figure-out that it was not the Slide Guide. The AA No5 powder cannot be loaded below the recommended starting FPS, or else the pressures will not be great enough to ignite all the powder...hence leaving a sloppy mess. I loaded the AA No5 a bit hotter, there was complete combustion, and with the Slide Guide, it worked great as usual. Since then, I have coated ALL EXPOSED METAL (to include magazines) with TS-70 Moly Lube, and sparingly use Slide Guide on the barrel, barrel lugs, and feed ramps only. I use a touch of FP-10 on the rails, and thats it. Slide Guide is nice, and makes clean-up a breeze!! In Christ: Raymond PS: You'll know when you use too much Slide Guide, as your face (and shooting glasses) will have a bunch of littel black specks all over the place. (Freckles? Naw...just Slide Guide). Edited October 10, 2009 by RaymondMillbrae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Rader Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 It is Slide-Glide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkatz44 Posted November 11, 2009 Author Share Posted November 11, 2009 It is Slide-Glide. I just wanted to update everyone. I have been using slide glide for a couple of weeks now and i love it. My favorite part is that I don't have to clean. I just have to wipe out the old slide guide and reapply some more slide glide. I am so happy that i ordered slide guide from enos!
