I have found that it works well on guns that do not see a lot of use.. I think it was made to be a product that does work on guns that do not see a lot of action, I run my glock pretty hard and have for over a year and I had to switch from frog to slip2000.. lube is a product with great advertising on you tube.. out perform others?? only in a video.. I did exactly what Joe did heard about it then tried it, was not happy, so I gave it to my wife... just my 43 cents
