... So this rifle came back to us "CAUSE THE SUMBITCH WON'T RUN !!". It was one year old, filthy, and dry as the Sahara. My guy, who sees this way too much, oiled it without cleaning it, and couldn't get it to malfunction. He's now cleaning it thoroughly, then he'll oil it, then ship it back to the customer. Who will immediately try everything in the book to get it to malfunction. Meh, guess this means we're runnin' with the big dogs now. The lesson here is "Everything's better wetter" - ML

rotten1ndenmark I honestly don't get how you spend the money for something nice like a larue, then fail to maintain it. Gotta be pretty dumb to run one so dirty it doesn't cycle, then blame it on the item.

davids_lifemission It's amazing that there are still dumb ass customers out there trying to bash your products. Only to be proven to be a total dumb ass. If any of your products fail, it's not because of the product, it's the dumb ass who doesn't deserve to own any type of firearm.

metal_mayhem82 I wish for a world where firearms ownership required a little personal accountability (the way it used to). "Yeah, your gun is jamming, why? Because you don't know how it works, you've never cleaned it, and your $900 optic puts you in the ballpark of a $200 shooter. Have a nice day."

flashbang.kd "Everything's better wetter", I'm stealing this for my classes. I will give you full credit.
the.necro.maker Reminds me of that one idiot online who complained that his rifle wouldn't work after he just completely fucked that gun from the inside out.
- laruetactical @the.necro.maker ... Tweren't Nuttin' Fancy about that guy. I'm truly surprised the Air Force let him fly their planes. 🤪
thecodystone Just spit on it to lube it up. Works 60% of the time, every time.
jeff.davis.9465177 I really don't understand the guys who refuse to clean and maintain their weapons. On a lunch break at my last carbine course I pulled my bolt wiped it down reapply oil and run a bore snake. Some guys tells me if I bought better gear I could be eating instead of cleaning. Murphy showed up on our second drill and his rifle shit the bed. I smiled and said if you had just shown a little more love to his rifle instead of that roast beef sandwich which, he could still be shooting. Take care of your fucking gear you heathens!
gearheadkittykat The long range shooters say not to clean your rifle until accuracy drops. I still break down my bolt gun to do a proper cleaning like my carbines, each time after I use it.
soar_wave Wasnt a lot of info available about this 20 years ago. I couldnt understand how this platform wouldnt give me the reliability of my shotguns and sks/ak. This little revelation about these guns being mermaids and needing to be wet was a game changer. Not sure how this was so widely known in the military but so little talked about among civilians until recently.
cmm__86 @laruetactical Any chance of getting 9x39 in a AR15 platform?
41whiskey 🤣🤣 @accuracy1st I ran one of your 14.5" tOBRs w/ sure fire can and I was only allowed to oil it but no other cleaning to help torture test it and I didn't have a single malfunction and the gun had already had thousands and thousands of rounds through it. It still had sub-MOA groups and the only bad thing I had was oil on my face because of the surefire can. Wish I had a #tranquilo for that run.
josh.macintyre Recommended your electronic targets to a gun store owner today. Only for him to tell me he cant stand LaRue Tactical and it was the rudest experience he had with a manufacturer. Must be because he cant buy wholesale, because he wouldn't give any details. I guess accurate rifles with the best warranty and guarantee in the business is not for everyone! I said suit yourselves! I would run my Tobr's against anyone's bolt gun!

vine_matt As I was taught in the Navy. Lubrication IS the answer.
icecoldmn People are so stupid with moving parts,the dam things need some lube. Had a guy bring out a uu kit gun to a shoot bitching it would not run thru a box without jamming. He assembled it with zero lube and thought the gun would break in that way. I hit it with some mgl and runs like a Swiss watch now

- texan.right @gavltron my rifle likes lavender essential oil prior to every hunt or range visit. Not a single malfunction after the break in period. When it really needs energy I give the bcg a shot of MCT oil. Kidding aside I use Advanced Weapons Technology's "Extreme Force" after every deep clean and any typical aerosol gun oil if I feel the action isn't as smooth during shooting. Depending on the quality of the rounds I'm shooting I deep clean accordingly. I probably over clean it. 4 likes
