Where can I buy this in the pump not aerosol? Just bought my first Glock and people have been recommending this for cleaning and lubrication.

Academy / BPS or most local shops should also carry it. If not Midway or Cheaper than dirt online will have.

CLP is good stuff pretty much all I use these days

Which hoppes product are you wanting to compare. CLP break free is a cleaner/ lubricator will also remove surface rust. I just find it to be a better overall product than what hoppes has.

If that's what you want, you can order it here. LINK

CLP is OK -- nothing wrong with using it if you want a "one-step" product. There are products out there that are supposedly better cleaners (Hoppes #9, M-Pro 7, etc.) and there are lubricants that are supposedly better (Militec, FP-10, etc).

But I wouldn't obsess over it -- especially since it's a Glock. Keep it reasonably clean and reasonably lubed (don't over-lube it) and you'll be fine.

Yep -- but maybe use less lube than you might on, for example, some 1911's.

Just follow directions in the owner's manual and you'll be fine.

I may have been a little too subtle with my sarcasm there, but guys.

I use Breakfree CLP. It's a good product. I've looked for it unsuccessfully at Bass Pro and Academy in the past, but that's been a while; maybe one of them carries it now. I wasn't aware it's made in a pump bottle, but Midway confirms it is. I use the liquid. It's also an EXCELLENT rust protector.

ETA: Enjoy your Glock, Rustontiger!

I just clean with hopped 9 and lube with rem oil like once a year. I use some kind of blast cleaner most of the time. I only have pump shotguns bolt action rifles and a revolver so as long as they're dry they're hard to screw up
