Firearms Maintenance expertise and recommendations for the firearms user community, from step-by-step directions to just sharing years of experience.

Tetra Gun Brand Legacy

Not just gun oil. There’s so much more you can learn about gun care, for those who want to take the time in properly maintaining their hardware.

Founded around 1985, the Tetra brand is well over a third of a century old now, and it has been committed to the firearms industry and other outdoor sports since they first invented the synthetic lubricant formulas for treating gunmetal, and alike. The original patents were groundbreaking, and today many people understand and appreciate the performance benefits of delivering fluoropolymer particles to metal surfaces. You need that barrier to cushion two surfaces of metal to minimize friction and handle load bearing, whether is be sliding or impact-type contact.

Any lube will give you something, and some are more appropriate than others, but the particle is the key, along with the other proprietary ingredients. For Tetra, it’s a science, which it’s been since the original inventors left NASA to develop this innovation.

There are many long standing customers, but as new consumers enter the gun ownership ranks, newbies get to experience the almost immediate benefits of polishing the grease, lube or clp into gun parts. Choosing gun oil, or gun cleaners for that matter, can be confusing, but there is a difference. Too many experienced folks in the user community know the difference, and there are too many satisfied customers worldwide for it not to be true. The important thing is not to worry about comparing to- or demoralizing other brands of products. There’s no need. Just use a superior product and you won’t need to look any further.

Tetra doesn’t have an exclusive on quality lubrication, but there are some products out there that just don’t cut it. Luckily, those options will always be available for those who insist on doing things the hard way. You probably have a friend like that.

With the industry’s most comprehensive line-up of firearm maintenance products, Tetra Gun care has the one stop shop for sport shooters. We try to come up with formulas for niche needs, and accessories made for almost every caliber possible to be at the service of gun owners.

My view is a bit biased having worked in the gun care business for almost a quarter of a century, but I have learned so much from a very long list of the most knowledgeable folks involved in shooting sports, defense and the science of gunmetal. Those include: manufacturers, inventors, engineers, defense industry program managers, laboratory analysts, armorers, trainers, operators from many agencies and mobilized units, competitive shooters and from within the ranks of the firearms user community. It’s all good.

We all need to be aware of our common goals, and challenges, including the threat from those who want to remove firearms from our world. This is inconceivable, but we have to work together to ensure that we preserve a free and secure society, and that our rights will never be infringed. Safety first, coupled with personal responsibility. Community. This is the only path.

And, I’m not only the President. I’m also a customer.
