Here's what I wrote Ruger about. Comment / question: Hey I have a blued P95 with a polymer frame and wondering what cleaners and oils to use on the gun.. Now, I dont plan to get anything on the frame but accidents do happen, so I will need a polymer safe cleaner/oil. I have tried contacting companies but is hard to do. Hoppe's, RemOil and Breakfree CLP are all available locally to me. Would these cause any problems if they come in contact with the polymer frame? thanks againJoseph Response: The Hoppes and RemOil should work fine on the gun but would not recommend the use of the Breakfree, it may discolor the frame. Seeing how you guys have used Breakfree CLP with no problems, I think, maybe they're referring to the powder blast that is loaded with solvents. Oh yeah, for the frame they suggest Casey's Birch Hello, Do you recommend a certain type of cleaner/oil for the P95. All I saw mentioned in the manual was some solvent powder. Can I just use Rem Oil as both a cleaner and oil? I would really like to avoid the powder if there is no benefit as it might be difficult to remove it all. My last gun used Breakfree CLP for both cleaning and oiling. thanks Response: Yes, you may use Rem Oil on your firearm. We recommend that you do not use any type of solvent on the frame. But would suggest you try Birchwood – Casey’s Stock Restorer. We have found it work very well on all Synthetic frames.

Ruger has a video of a tutorial for cleaning their P95. He specifically mentions the use of grease on the underside of the slide. the video http://www.ruger.com/resources/videos.html# I've contacted them several times and in their emails they say just just an oil. FWIW they said RemOil was fine but said Breakfree may discolor the polymer frame. I'm not sure but I think they may not be referring to the CLP but the powder blast solvent, as I've read reports of it discoloring. email "Comment / question: Hey I have a blued P95 with a polymer frame and wondering what cleaners and oils to use on the gun..

I just got my Mossberg Persuader 500 (shorty) and just cleaned it for the second time. This isnt so much a problem on my P95 since the barrel is so short, but anyway. I got the Hoppe's shotgun and rifle cleaning kit from Academy and am unsure about a few things. The rods look like brass and I'm worried they may be scratching the bore and while its not pretty when looking through it at a light source, I'm wondering will it promote rust and any other problems later on. Its not just the rods, its the adapter you attach to the end to connect to the brush and/or slotted tip. It looks like aluminum but could be steel since its heavy, but then again it has no rust visible. When I work it through the bore I cannot perfectly align my arm through the stroke and I get somescratching noise. thanks
