SLIP 2000: MAINTENANCE, RESPONSIBILITY, AND WHY CLEANING YOUR FIREARM MATTERS

Discipline is Maintenance: Why We Partner With SLIP 2000

Owning a firearm isn't just about training; it’s about discipline. A weapon you don't maintain is a weapon you cannot trust. For community defense, responsible carry, and everyday readiness, maintenance is part of the job.

That’s why we partner with SLIP 2000. Their lubricants, cleaners, and carbon cutters are the industry standard for shooters who need their equipment to work every single time.


Why Cleaning Matters

A clean firearm is a reliable firearm. Consistent maintenance:

  • Reduces malfunctions and cycles smoother.
  • Extends the life of critical internal parts.
  • Maintains accuracy by removing fouling.
  • Handles heat better during high-volume training.

The Rule: If you rely on it, you must care for it. Whether it's a daily carry or a home defense tool, your maintenance schedule should match your usage.


The SLIP 2000 Advantage

We use these products because they are built for real-world users—non-toxic, highly effective, and simple to use.

  • EWL & EWL 30: High-performance lubricants that don't migrate or burn off under heat.
  • Carbon Killer: Aggressively breaks down stubborn buildup fast.
  • 725 Cleaner/Degreaser: Cuts through grime without harsh, toxic chemicals.

Maintenance is Community Defense

In community defense, gear failure is not an option. Most malfunctions—dirty chambers, caked bolts, or dry moving parts—stem from neglect. A few minutes of cleaning prevents the problems that could shut a weapon down when it matters most.

We teach this in every Basics Class: Knowing how to clean your weapon is just as important as knowing how to shoot it. SLIP 2000 helps our students and instructors stay on top of that responsibility.


Our Partnership

Because of SLIP 2000’s support, we provide high-quality cleaning solutions to our students and community. We don't recommend anything we don't run ourselves; our staff uses SLIP 2000 on the range, in high-volume courses, and in our personal carry pieces.

The Takeaway: A neglected weapon is a liability. A maintained weapon is an asset. Keep your gear alive and treat your tools with respect.
