That's the reason most EOD shop doors remain "locked".......Note the small sandbagged bunker near the door also in many "smart" EOD units. Too many troops and kooks would walk up with a 66mm LAW rocket or Frag grenade they "found" and slap it down on the NCOIC's desk. Asswhuppin was too late to help then .....in some cases........:o) When they knocked on the door we made em show us their hands or drop what they had in the bunker.

Stay Safe !

Pinesol eh?
Have to try it.
Been using Ed's Red,
make it by the gallon.
1 qt. dextron/mercon auto-transmission fluid
1 qt. kerosene
1 qt. mineral spirits or terpentine
1 qt. Acetone.

Works very well although it doesn't have the female attracting powers of Hoppes #9.......

sidenote. early auto transmissions were lubed by whale oil
but during the war this became hard to get and dextron was developed, a very fine oil replacement indeed.

You can leave out the acetone and make more of a gun oil than a cleaner and you can mix lanolin in with it to make
more of a cosmolene type, thicker, stays on better.

Cost about $6 per gallon.

My enfield is a 2A1 pretty much a beater but it will still group.

Keep'em in the black.

Someday I'll have to tell you the doghouse story. Thankfully, no canines were killed during the making of this yarn.
