Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By JBecker_72: G96 for the smell.  True. I oil my shredder it for just that reason. While it doesn’t make any sense, I have found that a very light coat of G96 on the weapon’s surfaces gives it a new(er) appearance. |

Both are good choices as are all of Mil-Comm’s products.

G96 seems to last longer and does better in cold weather.

G96 and Hoppes #9 both have a smell I really like.
I have a can of G96 and use it a lot. I have never used the Slip 2000 so far. Bob R |

G96 is more of a CLP so it cleans pretty well. You only really need to buy G96 and nothing else to complete your cleaning care. I think Slip 2000 EWL is technically a "CLP" but generally speaking you need another cleaning agent along with it such as their degreaser. That might be too much for a typical person cleaning their guns. However, I do think having a separate cleaner is a better overall idea than having a all in one solution but either one works fine.
I personally think both will function well as a lube though. |

Slip 2000 Gun Lube is their actual CLP.
The EWL is marketed as a CLP or does some CLP'ing, but isn't the MIL-PRF compliant CLP that is Gun Lube. EWL is thinner than Gun Lube and tends to run. Gun Lube is thicker, and of course EWL30 is even thicker. The Kriss Vector is real sensitive about lubes. Not enough and it stovepipes like crazy. EWL and EWL30 would run too much. Ended up going with grease like TW25B which is used on the military's medium caliber stuff like 25mm especially for cold weather. I didn't like constantly kneading the tube so my LGS recommended Slip 2000 EWG and so far it is very good. |
