Mowers Blowers & Guns video: GNP Defend Gun Cleaner and Gun Oil vs Lucas Oil
Creator review

“Is this New GNP DEFEND gun cleaner and gun oil better than Lucas Oil Gun Cleaner & CLP?”

by Mowers Blowers & Guns · tested by Nameless

“I was skeptic, but man, this product got it all out.”

— Nameless, 5:19

Henry handed our Gun Cleaner and Gun Oil to his son Nameless, who has used Lucas Oil's cleaner and CLP for six years, to try on his pistols. His verdict: the oil is on par, the cleaner is the standout. His test, his opinion. Product provided by GNP Defend.
