A new low-viscosity light gun grease that exceeds the overused term “military-grade” is compelling for serious competitive shooters, truly

Discriminating gun owners always appreciated the difference in performance, and gun lubricants or cleaning products in general are no different. Often inspired by what special forces operators prefer, or what is used on advanced weapons systems or better yet, by the defense industry “skunk works” operations draws intrigue, though it’s overkill for the small arms user. But then again it can be something cool to talk about.

Some companies create fancy packaging and offer product at ridiculous prices, often designed to over-impress while they mimic the truly specials products out there, but that’s ok. Every product, not just lubes, has to pass the ultimate test – what the consumer experiences when they use it – to determine if it’s the real deal. Often, it’s not.

The rule of thumb in this business is, if it is one of the very, I mean very few that will work flawlessly on medium caliber weapons, then it’s a keep. On that level, minimizes buildup is nice but not the primary objective. Instead it is about staying power – can a chain gun run for a long time before a re-lubrication. 100s of rounds? Try 1,000s. I know what can do that, which is no easy task. Think about it, just one short burst from a multi-barrel rotary cannon spits out many rounds, very quickly. This is wear others fade away.

Tetra Gun has a new grease formula that can deliver, but only time will tell. It is easy to be in firearms industry and get desensitized to the never-ending flow of lube companies popping up ready to become the flavor of the year. All for naught. Put up or shut up. For some reason too many people want a firearms lubricant with their name on it. Fascinating.
