I've been using eezox for the past two years on all of my firearms with great results...I also have some weaponshield products I've used on my revolvers as well...Any other users of these products? What do you think?

I typically use Gunzilla but did get a free sample of weaponshield. After cleaning my PM9 I used weaponshield sparingly in the usual places. It is considerably thicker than Gunzilla but seemed to lube pretty well.
I don't shoot as often as many here and it was about 3 weeks before I shot. When cleaning afterward, I saw the weaponshield had become gummy and a dark brown. That was over a month ago and I've been to the range a couple times. Cleaning after the last time (Gunzilla) I saw the weaponshield leaking out from the recoil spring rod (inner spring). So I'm not a weaponshield fan, but I do really like the needle dispenser it came in.
I use Gunzilla for cleaning and oiling, and TW25b for grease. TW is light weight - not real sticky - but doesn't run.•"Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end." - O. L.

I'm the odball here...I use WD-40 for cleaning and store everything in a safe with large cans of desicant. I clean my weapons after each use and before storing. Have been doing this since the 1970's without a problem. Lately, I've been using Shooter's Choice synthetic lube (red lube in a syringe) and/or FP-10 when I go to the range with intent to shoot 100+ rounds.
I'm new to CCW, so the salt from persperation is a challenge. I'll definately look into Eezox for my CCW pistol.

I used to use Eezox on my defensive pistols. As a dry lube/corrosion protectant, it works great, but I'm not a fan of the smell or the chemicals it contains. I switched to Weaponshield, and it has worked out just as well as Eezox, or anything else I've tried so far. Plus, I get to support a local business.

I used Eezox happily for a couple of years. Then I started getting the impression (from the feel of racking the slide) that the lubrication might be too thin. So I tried WeaponShield. It was certainly heavier, but was much like a light motor oil, which I felt would attract too much dust in my dry, dusty climate. So I tried Gunzilla and have been happy with it for the past year.

Eezox for cleaning and wipe down. I use other lubricants for high stress areas like rails and locking lugs. Not sure it's required, but it makes me feel better and my guns do work.
I know people use WD-40 and I was once one of those people. I recently saw an older Ruger pistol that was treated with WD-40. The WD-40 had evaporated and left a sticky brown shellack behind. The guys had to run it through an ultrasonic bath to free things up. I wouldn't use it other than for water displacement after a gun got wet.
