Apparently I took a wrong turn. Does anyone know the way back to the revolver forums?
Oh. While I’m here, I haven’t used M-Pro 7’s oil, but I’ve been using M-Pro 7 solvent for about 10 years. It’s no match for the discontinued good old Hoppie’s #9 with cancer causing benzene, but none of the other currently available solvents that I’ve tried have been any better at softening the crud left behind by .22 LRs. M-Pro 7 solvent has the advantage of no odor and they advertise it as non-toxic.
If you’re one of those who likes the odor of Hoppie’s #9, whatever difference there is in effectiveness isn’t worth changing brands.
Hoppie’s #9’s odor isn’t all bad. The first time a friend opened the door of a young lady’s car he caught a whiff of Hoppie’s #9, looked in, saw her Hoppie’s #9 air freshener hanging from the mirror and immediately knew he’d found his future wife.
Speaking of cars, I’ll get turned around and head back to the revolver forums.
Welcome to the forum mjh, and enjoy your M&P 15-22.
