  5. Birchwood Casey Gun Scrubber Super-Cleaning Solvent Safe For Most Gun Finishes • High-pressure aerosol spray cleaner/degreaser blasts out caked dirt, oil, grease, fouling, and other gunk without disassembly of the gun • Helps prevent jams and malfunctions caused by dirty mechanisms without time-consuming field strip operations • Extension tube directs spray into tight crevices in actions, gas ports, and trigger mechanisms • Synthetic-safe specially formulated not to attack wood, rubber, laminate, multi-color camo patterns, or molded-in colors – perfect for polymer-framed pistols • Air dries immediately and leaves no residue • (Brownells, Inc., 2013).

  6. Ballistol The World's Most Useful and Environmentally Friendly Lubricant! Cleans and dissolves traces of copper, lead, brass, zinc, and tombac. Lubricates and protects firearms, lock, stock and barrel. Forms a film that protects against rust. Will never gum-up or harden. Ideal for pistol grips, and rifle stocks. Removes residue from corrosive ammo. (The Washington Trading Company, Inc., Ballistol USA, 2013) (Tong, 2013)

  7. Shooter’s Choice Bore Cleaner Removes Gilding Metal, Lead, Plastic & Powder Fouling Dissolves bullet jacket and lead fouling, plus powder/carbon and plastic shotgun wad residues in just one step. No need for separate bore cleaner and oil. Shooter’s Choice also removes rust and corrosion and serves as a lubricant. Do be careful, it can damage stock finishes on contact. Will soften epoxy bedding materials or discolor nickel plate if left in contact with them.(Brownells, Inc., 2013). (Brownells, Inc., 2013).

  8. Break Free • Outstanding, All-In One, Cleaner & Lube • A super cleaner, lubricant, preservative containing Teflon and other specialized chemicals. Penetrates and displace corrosion, dirt, firing residue and water better than ordinary solvents. • Keeps on working after application as a fantastic lubricant that grit can’t adhere to; coated parts actually become self-cleaning. • Guns and parts treated and cleaned with it re never “degreased” – so there’s no chance of rust forming. • In lab tests, Break-Free removed 98% of all firing residue and withstood over 100 hours in a 5% salt spray test with no evidence of corrosion. • Provides lubrication at temperatures from -65 degrees F to +475 degrees F, without gumming up or breaking down. • (Brownells, Inc., 2013).

  9. Q 20 BLU “Q20 boasts an advanced technical formula; it is ozone friendly and does not contain flammable propellant gases. The unique selling point of Q20 is the fact that it has a gravity of 1.153 compared to water and therefore will get underneath any existing moisture to lube and protect. Q20 is silicone free” (QMAXX Products Group, 2013). (QMAXX Products Group, 2013).
