Was out at the range today, running my 22LR upper wet, after about 150 rounds the CLP flashed.
It was over 90 degrees out. First time I've had that happen. |

I really doubt this happened. It's never happened to me and I run CLP on all my AR's except my 22 actually. And, I just set the torch to thicker non-aerosol CLP and the aerosol CLP and they won't take a flame....nothing.
I guess the only difference would be heat + pressure as opposed to the heat I just introduced. But many folks run their 5.56 ar's sopping wet with clp to complete dryness (under more pressure and heat) without a flash. You had an out of battery or some unburnt powder back in the receiver or something... |

Looked at all the expended 22's and no OOB.
Could have been some powder fouling flashing, but I never find that much unburnt powder from the 22's when I shoot. Never had CLP do that before, I have had regular gun oil flash on numerous occasions on the 223, that's why I don't use it anymore for that one. |
