    I assume you put the automatic transmission oil on the trigger... But i cant seem to think where the brake fluid has to go? Down the barrel to stop the bullets?

    Those were only samples with little bit of oil in it but atleast the small bottle is very handy for shooting bag use.

    Handgun rails, barrel and locking parts get slip ewg,with a drop of slip ewl on trigger parts that are less accessible.solvent, good old hoppes, butches bore shine, or anything equivalent. With slip you just wipe off and for the most part you dont need a solvent. On the odd occassions when I do clean a barrel I use a patch with slip ewl and that is not really to clean, more as a rust preventative.

    CLP Break Free for everything.

    TW25B applied to the rails in small amounts when I go to the range.

    (*Had to import, since neither of these are available in Cape Town)
