Does anyone have any experince with that Gunzilla CLP? I have always used Hoppe’s but from what I have read on their site and one other site Gunzilla is the best cleaer possible. But I dont know anyone who has used it and I was recently told never to use a Cleaner and Lubricant mix.
It’s what I’ve been using on my BCM Middy and G19. No problems, works great. Once it soaks in, feels like a teflon frying pan after a few days.
Yeah, the stuff rocks! It’s an all in one solvent/oil, once you get a few applications of it on your firearm the dirt and grime pretty much wipes right off. And it slowly soaks into the pores and prevents rust really well. Now this is only hearsay, but the county’s SRT guys say that dirt doesn’t cling to it either like other oils. I’ve been using it excusively on my patrol rifle since I bought and it’s been great.
Doesn’t stink either, I know some people get a hard-on at the smell of Hoppe’s #9 but it gives me a headache so this stuff was a godsend. It’s not odorless, it has it’s own smell but it’s not bad.
We are running it in our department M&P handguns as well, and most of our off duty stuff. One of my co-workers has a LCP and this stuff made the slide run so much smoother. Didn’t make it shoot any softer though, that’s a little stinger with gold dots.
Gunzilla is a great cleaner, non toxic and doesn’t stink up the house. My experience with it as a lube I find it lacking. Weaponshield or Slip 2k blow it away in the lube department. 
Does not hurt to give it a try.
Right now i have
KG1, KG2, KG4, WeaponShield CLP.
when i clean my pistol with WS, i could hear squeaky noise from barrel as well what they said on Gunzilla review too
would it be ok to put oil on after cleaning with GUNZILLA or would that ruin it effect?
I found this to be the case.
Also, and this may be me mixing different lubes, last time I used it the inside of my bolt carrier was gummy. I used Gunzilla and a petroleum based lube because my little squirt bottle of Gunzill ran out.
In my experience, I will not mix gunzilla and petro based CLP from now on.
Where is a good place to source this stuff?
Direct from the mfgr,
I get it from my local cop shop CMP Distributors
Thats what Im worried about see ive been using Hoppes #9 and Hoppes Eite oil, would it be ok to just go stright to the GUNZILLA or is there a process I need to take to go from one to the other?
Having been 'round the block with several expensive gun oils, I’ve settled on automatic transmission fluid for cleaning all of my firearms.
http://www.grandpappy.info/itips.htm
Executive summary of the web page:
[i][b][Use] Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) as a cleaner and light lubricant. ATF performs admirably as a carbon remover, and protects steel surfaces excellently (“Have you ever seen a transmission that’s rusty inside?”).
Twenty weight engine oil serves in an environment that is far more strenuous than normally found in small arms so it is normally quite successful. The Army authorities recommend synthetic oils such as Mobil 1. (In fact, one noted authority has used Mobil 1 as his personal firearm lubricant for over two decades.)[/b][/i]
Not believing everything I read on the Internet, I put the above info to the test on my own hardware and haven’t looked back.
I’m not broke and I’m not a tightwad but firearms run perfectly well on common automative products and I see no reason to purchase the designer gun goo.
“But it’s not DESIGNED for that” you might say…
All right, go ahead and pay a buck per ounce for stuff that gives you no additional benefits.
When I went through the S&W M&P Armorers course the instructor said he had switched totally over to synthetic motor oil as a gun lubricant.
I like Gunzilla as a cleaner too. Actually i find it’s good on cleaning up alot of other things than just firearms.
I went straight to Gunzilla. And I am not saying that the mixing of the two agents caused the gumminess. But I am saying that I am going to avoid mixing petro based products and Gunzilla.
We’ve been using Gunzilla for over a year at work. We liked it so much that we bought enough for our parts cleaner. Gunzilla has an unusual property. As you use it more and more, it treats the metal and makes each subsequent cleaning easier. It will remove paint, like the red paint of Remington 870 safeties.
I’ve been using Gunzilla with very good effect on all of my work firearms. Our SRT has switched to it and they run it on their SIG automatics without problem.
The Michigan State Police has switched over to it also. It’s made in Michigan by the way.
I would recommend it to anyone who asked about it.

I have no experience with using ATF as a gun cleaner.
I have some experience with spilling ATF on bits made of plastic and rubber and paint. (The kind of things cars are made of.)
I would be careful when it comes to putting ATF on anything that’s not metal, and even some metals.
Non chlorinated brake cleaner. Cheap. Easy. Efficient. Use outdoors.
I just started using Gunzilla a couple of months ago. I like it’s cleaning ability, and that parts treated with it seem easier to clean. So far, I’m happy with it.
I would also recommend it to anyone who asked.
I don’t know about using ATF on gun parts, as was said before, I’d be very careful about getting it on some finishes, and plastic parts.
