Military Surplus CLP "Larg size"

George9 · Mar 11, 2013

Has anyone used the large bottle that you can sometimes get in Army Navy surplus stores? This stuff is green in color and comes in a large bottle with big letters CLP on it. Is it ok for my M&P pistols?I also have shot guns rifles and a AR and other 1911 hand guns. I have never used the surplus CLP. When it first came out I think the name was Break Free then it was clear like gun oil but with teflon in it this is going back some 30 to 35 years.. .Now I see they added the CLP to and it's green what's up with that? Also what's a good price for I'm guessing a pint or so of the stuff .. not sure how much is in it the larg bottle I had seen didn't really look at it when I was there.. Was thinking of trying it now. Don't think I would ever run out unless it got spilled or something..George

I know Break Free has changed the formula to make it more "ecological" & safer for your lungs, George. Otherwise it's the same stuff. The CLP is an abbreviation for "Clean, Lubricate, Protect". I don't know what the military stuff is because the CLP I have is amber colored. I can't recall any cleaner that was green when I was in the Army. Maybe it was. I've been using the stuff with good results. It seems to put a nice lubricating coat on the slide rails even if you can't actually see an oily finish & it cleans the gun very well & easy. I like it.

When you use the stuff write up a report.

Thanks, I didn't get back there yet hope they have some left. Yep the stuff was that funky light bright green color slime looking gunk.. I'm 90% sure it had CLP on it in big white letters.Never seen one supper sized before! If I can get some I'll report back after uses provided they don't what some ridiculous price for it.. George
