Hoppe’s has announced a new line of cleaning and lubricating products specifically for gas-operated firearms like pistols and AR-15s, to be known simply as Hoppe's Black.

The new line includes gun and copper cleaner and oil with a specific molecular build that offers top performance and gives the best cleaning possible, while also providing function in temperatures ranging from -65° to 540° Fahrenheit, meaning there isn’t any temperature range the products can’t handle. A grease syringe and lubricating cloth are available to aid in applying the products, too.

One other added benefit of the new line, as stated by Hoppe’s Product Manager Laurie Kokoruda, is that, “The Hoppe’s Black formula is designed for MSRs and other high-volume firearms, but will work with any gun,” so you can get the same high-end protection on all of your firearms.
