Crusader Weaponry is about to form a new branch of the company: Crusader Racing. We want to test out Automotive Slipstream product in the harshest crucible of automotive stress… Racing. We are looking for a Volunteer Test Subjects for Slipstream Racing products.
The Candidate needs to be involved in Racing of some sort… Car, Truck, Motorcycle… basically anything with an internal combustion engine and goes fast while looking cool. (Barstool Racing and Lawnmower Racing… need not apply… or any other racing that starts with “Hold my Beer”.)
We’re looking for a Racing Team Car, Truck, or Bike (4 Stroke, and one that doesn’t use a wet clutch!) that is getting ready to do an engine rebuild in the near future. Which is just about any racing team, isn’t it?
We’d like some Data in return. Pre Slipstream Data. Engine noise, vibration, power. And then same information after treatment with Slipstream. How it performs in a race. And then, when you do your rebuild, how the engine internals look.
We are also looking at doing a Racing Sponsorship down the road… so if this works out, you help us… we’ll help you. I don’t know any racing team that wouldn’t like another Sponsorship.
Post a link to your Racing Team, Site, or even just a picture of your Racing rig… or email it to me as some folks would rather do. We’ll pick one or two and get this set up.

Easy S&W Revolver Action Job
Okay, so the revolver I was working on was actually a Taurus… a .17HMR Tracker to be specific. Here’s what you do.
Some interesting Snake Oil
Now you guys all know that I take Lubrication very seriously and Gundoc and I have studied more on Lubricants than anyone short of a PHD should. We’ve talked to Chemists and Nano Scientists and have studied oils down the Molecular level, and how they act and react with different materials and uses in different applications. That’s what we do… that’s why Slipstream is so bloody good.
Well, this sales rep guy comes in and shows us some stuff from a company called Wasp Sports. It’s called Bore Stinger. It’s a CLP type oil made from Tree Sap and Root Oils, according to the rep. He was kind enough to leave us a couple bottles. Everything I know of tree sap pretty much has nothing to do with Lubrication of small moving metal parts. According the the Sales Guy they take the tree sap and stuff and shock it for 3 days at 30,000 volts or something to “Change the Molecular Structure.” Yeah, that’s what happens to Organic Compounds when they encounter heat… Some people call it cooking. Which is why Crusader doesn’t use organics.
Do you know what happens to tree sap when it gets old? It gets hard and we call it Amber… the only thing Amber is good for is preserving Dino DNA and looking yellow. These are not things you want in your gun, do you?
The Rep made all kinds of claims… A lot of talk about Conditioning, which I still consider something for you Hair, not your Firearm. 10 Micron Penetration into metal. So evidently your metal is like dried pinewood and this stuff soaks in. Yeah, metal doesn’t quite do that, but okay… I’ll listen some more. Then I heard the biggest claim. This stuff will give you a 700FPS increase in Velocity in a 7mm Rem Mag if you treat your bore with it. Really? 700, huh? Not buying that for a second. Well, after the sales rep left, I had to hit their web site. WaspSports.
Their (talking about Native Americans here) secret “recipe” for seasoning weapons was coveted by friends and enemies alike, and the Eastern Natives became known as “Master Metal Seasoners”.
You know, my brother and I have both studied Western History in College… Including Native American Studies. My bro even has his Degree in it. We’ve never heard of that before. Ever.
Well, me being who I am, I had to try it out. 3 guns. I took down 3 different firearms and tried this stuff out. You know, it’s decent stuff for wiping down a gun. Probably because of the Wax Compounds that are most likely what’s in the stuff. But at an oil… I literally felt no difference in these guns – which were bone dry to start with. One gun, a Walther PPK/S, even kinda felt “Not as good” as before and had more of that Zipper sound after using Bore Stinger.
For about the same price as Slipstream… you can either get Bore Stinger… or you can get the best Lubricant known to Science that is absolutely proven in hostile field conditions and in very kenetic environments.
Win a Slipstream ST-1 Treatment
I’ve mentioned before that Huey’s Gunsight has a contest. He’s giving away a treatment… Crusader Weaponry’s ST-1 Treatment. This is a permanent application of Slipstream that will seriously improve your AR-15, AK, 870, or whatever other gun you want to slick up.
For more information on this, check out the thread about it on WTA. You still have a little time left. So enter!
Guys, I liked my M4 before… a lot. Then I got the ST-1 treatment. I love it now. I really do. It’s like the weapon is filled with double cream and blessings from Valhalla.
What do I need on my AR?
This is a common question that I get. What add-on’s does one really need? The simple answer is “none”. A basic, stripped down AR is perfectly serviceable. So you don’t necessarily need anything else. Anything from here on that you might add, should only be based on how it’s going to help you do what you want to do with it.
Trident Arms reviews Slipstream.
Trident Arms purchased a Slipstream kit from us and tried it out.
The review is on their site here.
As expected, Slipstream performed as advertised. Better in fact, as he threw Slipstream in a filthy class III weapon. Suppressors always make for dirty weapons. He ran the gun till it was jamming, threw in some Slipstream, and the gun was up and running again. That’s what Slipstream does – it works – because we were not satisfied with any other lubricant on the market, so we made the best there is and no one else in the industry has anything like it.
Slipstream is the best lubricant there is for your firearms. Need more convincing?
“Tell him thank you very much and the Slipstream is being put to very good use. I kept 2 bottles for myself and passed the rest out to the guys in my Company. There are about 40 Recon Marines using that stuff on their guns every time they head out on a patrol and we are in the most kinetic area in Helmand. Lets just say the Taliban are not appreciating his gift, lol. Thank you very much for whatever you said to get him thinking about sending that stuff.
Sgt. Mack”
I love that so much… “Slipstream – Hated by the Taliban.” What? One more? Okay.
“I love the stuff…I have the belt feds lubed with it, my M9 and M4 all lubed with it as well. I am grateful for it. (of our belt fed’s)I have only run the 249 on slip and it is so freakin smooth. The nice thing is also that it stays in place unlike the other lubes out there…and it won’t evaporate. I love this stuff.
G.B.”
Crusader Update: Joe is a Mad Scientist
Looking for ways to perfect our permanent Slipstream Process, we hit a wall that some said could not be broken. Joe, being the Consumate Marine Gun Nut and Mad Scientist that he is… Broke that wall. Continue reading Crusader Update: Joe is a Mad Scientist
Want to win a Slipstream Treatment?
Huey, over at Huey’s Gunsight has put up a cool contest. Send him a picture of your EBR, and the winner gets a ST-1 Treatment by Crusader Weaponry. How cool is that? That’s awesome Huey!
Slip2000 Lube, Meh.
At SHOT Show I grabbed some samples of Slip2000. Another new weapons lube. I have to be honest… while it is better than RemOil, it’s highly disappointing stuff.
I’m not sure what I’d use this stuff on… Crusader’s Slipstream blows it away so hard, it’s not even funny. Maybe door hinges. Because if I use Slipstream, every time you’d shut the door, it would slam.
I mean, hell, I Slipstreamed my door lock on my truck and the damn thing locks every time I shut the door now. I discovered this… the hard way. D’OH!
Don’t think I don’t like it because it isn’t Slipstream. Yeah, I know I sell Slipstream… but that’s not it. There are several gun oils that I like and will use if Slipstream is not available. For example, Tetra Gun Oil. MPRO7, Hoppe’s Elite…
Slipstream ST-1 Treatment
Huey from Huey’s Gunsight had recently sent in some of his AR rifle’s parts for the ST-1 Treatment. This is the permanent Slipstream treatment. From what he’s saying… I think he likes the results.
Independent 3rd Party Testers have put ST-1 up against Fail-Zero. Guess who won? Well, let’s just say that it’s unfortunate that they even have “fail” in their name. The ST-1 treatment lasted twice as long as Fail-Zero before they stopped further testing because they ran out of ammunition.
Slipstream… The best weapon lubrication – period.
