5/14/2008 I'm a gunner now in Iraq. I found a bottle and used it on all my weapons. My weapons collected less dust and charged like butter all week. In any
group of Soldiers I come across cleaning their weapons, strikehold is mentioned or recommended within 5min. I'm impressed. Thanks for your support to US
servicemembers. We appreciate it. ---CPT*** (FORSCOM)

12/8/2007 I am a Veteran of the Global War on Terror Iraqi Campaign. While over there, i had a hard time keeping Grime and sand from collecting on my Rifle
and certain areas of my Truck. I friend gave me a can of Strike-Hold as a Gift, and said if i liked it i could have it. I used it on my weapon, and was amazed at
how easy it was to get the dirt off and keep it off. As a test, i sprayed it on the battery terminals, and on other prime gunk build-points of my truck. I never had
a problem the whole tour keeping them in top condition during my time overseas. I have great confidence in your product, and hope it stays available for a a
long time.

5/13/2007 [Your product] has come highly recommended by people who know [SF weapons personnel]. I will be using it to support our crew served
weapons, M2/M240, M249s and M4s as well. -82 ABN

5/4/07 The first time I was in Iraq we used Strike-Hold. It worked GREAT. I am headed back and need the same cleaning power that I had the first time to get
me through it all again.---506th MP (L&O) Det

2/27/2007 I used strike the last time I was over here when I was in the infantry and loved it, that is all me and my guys used on all of our weapons. - SSG
***.TALLIL, IRAQ

11/27/2006 I have recently redeployed from Iraq and we were using Strike-Hold over there and it was wonderful. I am looking to get some on order for my
Platoon... - SSG****, U.S. Army

11/27/2006 I used [Strike-Hold] last time I was in [Iraq] and I swear by it. - Spc****, U.S. Army

5/25/06 Posted online at gunbroker.com Forum :
We here in the Middle East Theatre are increasingly going to a weapons ube called "Strike-Hold"...instead of the old sand magnet CLP. It's performance has
been flawless so far and I definitely want to keep on using it on my personal weapons when my tour is up.

3/7/2006 I am an infantry officer in the Marine Corps. I have used your product "Strike-Hold" in [undisclosed location] when I was with**** and loved it.

2/28/2006 I was recently deployed to [undisclosed location] with the 116th bct. We were issued
Mil-tec clp and but it was the Strike-hold that protected our weapons from the
wet weather in the winter and the sand and dust in the summer. Strike-hold
saved us valuable time in the maintenance of our weapons. I wont use any other
CLP now. -Spc. ****

8/3/2005 I would just like to commend you and thank you again for the professional and responsive way you run your company. We (American Soldiers) can’t
fight without the right tools and supplies. Your company has a great product in Strike Hold and you regularly bend over backwards to ensure our soldiers can
get it expeditiously. Colonel ********Commander **** Army National Guard

6/1/2005 We are currently deployed with the ****** in Kirkuk, Iraq and I have found that as far as CLPs your product is by far the best. I have used Miltec and
CLP, but strike hold seems to keep dirt off the weapons and even keeps the *** grenade launcher lubed. -2LT *****

5/4/2005 Thanks again for a great product. It is the only product I use on all my platoons weapons over here in Iraq. Glad I bought enough from you prior to
leaving. My [weapon] has been taking quite a lot of abuse and it has not failed to fire yet. The dust is coming and I'm confident it will continue to work great.
-SFC **** in Kirkuk, IRAQ

4/17/2005 I would like to let you guys know that your Strike Hold product is a perfect asset to have on deployments. I am on my second deployment to Iraq.
During my first tour I had no knowledge that StrikeHold even existed. I literally spent hours and hours a week trying to keep my weapon clean and
serviceable. Upon this second deployment I was introduced to StrikeHold by the unit we were replacing. It is the best cleaning, and lubricating product I have
ever used in 8 years of military experience. Not only that, it seems to keep the weapon clean longer than anyone could ever imagine. -SSG *******Camp Taji

3/31/2005 "I have had a chance to get a good look at Strike Hold in action, and it appears to be a very appropriate ferrous metal coating able to mitigate the
corrosive nature of the marine environment. I used the product on high carbon steel and mild steel in a moist bilge environment and found it more protective
than the CRC product I had been using. I also coated winch parts with Strike Hold and find it a good lubricant as well as protective coating." -******, US Naval
Academy

2/12/2005 “… getting settled in and transitioning into our jobs as Advisors. … I've introduced my team to Strike Hold and they are quite impressed –especially
LtCol. ****, the team leader. Semper Fi” -Major **** USMC in Iraq

2/9/2005 “After using [Strike-Hold] for several months on my weapon and several others in my platoon, it is obvious that my weapon cleans easier and
functions better. No more jams after a few mags of blanks. No more jams, period. The trigger housing group is almost always spotless. After several days in
the rain, the little rust on the weapon just brushed off. Even sand did not stick to my bolt nearly as badly as a CLP treated weapon….Strike-Hold is a great
product.” -Sgt ***** USMCR

1/5/2005 STRIKE HOLD is by far the most effective protectant I've ever come across. I have NO worries about rust forming on any of my many many
firearms. After seven weeks of putting rust-prone metals through continuous nonstop 24/7 tests. The treated metals do not rust, even after 7 weeks in
water. I tell everyone who has ears about STRIKE HOLD. I buy two cans at a time and look for every possible metal object in the garage and basement to
treat. Strike Hold is great! - TSgt ***** USAF, TN/USA

1/2/2005 “I used Strike-Hold with the USMC while in [undisclosed location] and it worked great.” -****8th Marines

11/12/04 "We currently use Strike-Hold for **** rifles in Basic Combat Training here at Fort Knox, KY. We also use it on **** machine guns and have found that
the product works very well on weapons. We use the little Motorola radios and will begin using Strike- Hold for the electronics, since we are often out in the
weather. This is an outstanding product and I greatly appreciate having it when weapons have to function properly." - CPT ****, U.S. Army

10/25/04 "Great stuff. I got introduced at the WPW Combat Matches at [undisclosed location]. We sprayed the weapons after firing in the rain all day and then
just wiped them off in the morning, no carbon, no rust!" -*****NY National Guard

7/27/04 “The difference between performance in the weapons using Strike-Hold vs. CLP are obvious. Sand and dust does not gunk up on the Strike-Hold
weapons and they don’t jam when we go to the range. Thanks for putting out a great product.” -1LT ***, XO, U.S. Army

7/13/04 “I just attended a course instructed by the US Army Sniper School and the instructors swore by Strike-Hold. It’s the best stuff I have found yet and I
have tried many CLP type formulas. -SGT **** ,US Army Infantry Tank Killer

7/6/04 “Since I’ve been in the Armor at [undisclosed location], I have used Strike-Hold throughout my stay. Strike-Hold effectively cleans sand, mud, and
miscellaneous debris, including the built-up carbon and I have the weapon system up in no time flat. This product saves time and equipment downtime by its
cleaning capabilities and ease of use for equipment lubrication.” -SGT *** Eglin AFB

7/2/04 “thanks for keeping our soldiers alive with your product. We tell all around us about it and are passing the word to units not deployed yet. God bless
and Thanks” -SFC ***, Camp Arifjan, Kuwait

6/4/04 “…you have the best product out there…our weapons fire awesome after using your product” -SPC *** US Army, Baghdad IRAQ

6/3/04 “It is a MUST for our deployment. This spray will work on everything and will not attract dust (unlike our CLP currently being used)…I personally used
on my own weapons and will never use anything else again.” -SFC **** Master Gunner , U.S. Army

5/16/04 “Strike Hold works great. It cleans and lubricates well and yet keeps the sand off unlike regular CLP.” -1LT *****, U.S. Army in [undisclosed location]
(near Baghdad)

11/24/03 “My unit and I are in [undisclosed location] and we use the hell out of Strike-Hold. It is the best thing on the market.” -SGT ****, U.S. Army

10/23/03 “In the maintenance news, I had the opportunity to use Strike Hold on [weapon] receivers the other day. Rust spots were showing from the
[undisclosed location] trip. The SH seems to make rust disappear as soon as you put it on. SH also helps us clean the large components of the sear and bolt
assembly as we are going through these to get the sand and grit out. Keep up the good product. I have been trying to pass on to anyone OCONUS that it may
be a good idea to spray weapons down with your product as they are packed up to be shipped back by boat. I think this would help a lot with the rust
problem. I hope the product gets accepted for Army wide use on weapons and other applications. As I believe I have said earlier, on [weapons] that came
back from OCONUS by ship, that were totally, completely locked up by rust and could not be charged, Strike Hold had them working in less than 2 seconds.
Matter of fact, they were shootable in that amount of time. It's amazing stuff, keep it up. That is the name of the game, we got to keep the units weapons
combat ready. The soldiers lives depend on it. Let me know of any changes you come up with, and on the testing. De Oppresso Liber -****

9/16/03 “It was my pleasure to meet you. As I stated during our brief discussion, I was very pleased with the performance of Strike-Hold during my
predeployment training and subsequent deployment to [undisclosed location] During our predeployment training our team fired some 8,000 rounds of 5.56 ball,
5.56 linked, and 7.62 linked ammunition, and Strike-Hold make cleaning the weapons quick and easy. Following our days at the range, we were able to clean
2 M240's, 2 M249's, and 7 M4 weapons in one evening. I must also mention that during our range days it rained on us constantly, yet we had no problem with
rust after using your product.

While in [undisclosed location], we were able to clean our weapons and wipe them dry with no adverse effects. During our deployment, it even rained on us
(very heavy for the region) and in spite of the fact that the weapons were dry (dust prevention), no one on the team had any problems with rust.

I am pleased with the product and have purchased several cases to support future field experimentation.” -****** , NSC Liaison to DBBL, U.S. Army

8/18/03 (in a letter to TACOM) “I keep hearing about this stuff (Strike Hold) being used over there with the troops. I am hearing that it works. REALLY
WORKS…
I know the troops were getting it before they left here [undisclosed date], as I was checking weapons out on the ranges, especially 240B and 249’s, I could
smell this new stuff. When I asked what it was , I was introduced to Strike Hold. It seems to really do what it is supposed to , kind of like a real Cleaner,
Lubricant, preservative.
I know we tried some on some weapons the other week here that had just come back from OCONUS, that were so rusty from shipping moisture we could
not charge the [weapons]. We have some of the strike hold here from the Pharmacy on post, used it on the rusty [weapons], and had them working and
gageing them in less than a minute. This stuff also kept them from rusting again in their arms room that had no AC, and where their dehumidifiers filled up with
water over nite. Just wondered if anyone is testing it yet. The below message came out of Special Forces from their [undisclosed] location. If anyone up
there is interested, here it is.. I would hate for TACOM to miss a good opportunity to acquire a great weapons lube for the ARMY.”

July 14, 2003 I am currently deployed over seas in Iraq in the war against terrorism. I recently got to use your product on my [weapon]. I was very impressed
with the product and would like to know more information about it and how I can obtain more. thank you for your cooperation. - SPC ***, U.S. Army

June 26, 2003 Hi Mike, This is Frank ****, I am the weapons guy on *** *** you talked to when you were up to [a unit] at Ft. Campbell. We got a couple of cases
of that Strike Hold you brought up from Fla. I was just wondering how difficult would it be to go through our B-tm and get some sent out here to Iraq? (maybe
24 cans) It has proven to be a great lube and a great cleaner whenever we get these nasty sandstorms. Most of the time when I disassemble my [weapon]
after a sandstorm its full of sand, but I just spray and it knocks most of it out. I just let it drain out and wipe it down. The gun is good as new.

June 18, 2003 Everyone that I have tried it with is impressed and wants more. They have your card. Currently they are still training and will not be out of the
field for at least another week. I am going to another range to test it out on some tank weapons sometime this week. -SFC **** , **** Master Gunner

June 11, 2003 Mike/Deb, Just wanted to let you know that we haven’t forgotten about Strike-Hold. Our initial testing with three separate Ranger classes
indicates that Strike-Hold does live up to its reputation. I’ll try to get you some feedback specifics, both positive and negative, but the chances are pretty good
that we’ll be buying some more. Rangers lead the way! -MAJ ****, U.S. Army

May 8, 2003 [The Rangers] used your product yesterday and it worked superbly. I will be promoting it to the 75th as a test location again also. We will be
using it again when we get the new class in to see its effects. I am confident it will do well. -CSM ****, U.S. Army

April 29, 2003 Mike - Thanks for the note. We are all doing great. I passed your phone # to CW4 ***** - other units now want to order Strike Hold! Your
product is working great over here in these conditions - lots of wind storms. Keep watching NBC/MSNBC! HOOAH! Air Assault! -Colonel ******, Brigade
Commander , U.S. Army

April 25, 2003 “hey, its me. Hows it going? All fine here. Get shot at once in a while. Brightens up a dull day. I have an idea. There is going to be a whole
country that may need strike hold for their new army, hey? Some reports: use strike hold for [various weapons], brushing teeth, sore throat, etc. that come
from one of the teams. They like it. Use it everywhere. I didn’t ask anymore. Did not receive the shipment that went to ft campbell. It is probably sitting at the
staff duty desk. I will try to send pictures soon. V44, out” -SFC ****

April 17, 2003 Mr. Huggard, Thank you for stopping in and showing us your product. I have distributed the samples to several units and will send you any
feedback I get. I have tried and so far am very pleased with the results. more to follow. It was pleasure meeting you. Take care. -MSG ***** Corps Abrams
Master Gunner, Fort Hood, Texas

April 14, 2003 Mike and Debbie - All our best to you as well. Life in Baghdad is swell - Strike Hold continues to kick a**! I even used it on my vehicle to get the
air filter cover off! HOOAH! Air Assault! Joe -Colonel *****U.S. Army

April 9, 2003 Ma'am, I am the [Corps] Master Gunner deployed in Iraq. I got your company information from the CSM of 101st Air Assault. I have forwarded
your information to CSM *** and SGM ***at CFLCC. They may be interested in your product for use in theater. I appreciate your response and would like to
check out your product for possible use in Germany when I return. As you can imagine I am on the go quite a bit here and don't get to check e-mail to often.
Thanks for your time. - SFC ******, U.S. Army

March 14, 2003 Mike-Hooah. Great to hear from you and thanks for keeping in touch. Strike-Hold is working miracles for us and think we've invented a 100
more uses for it. All rave about it. So thank you for what you've done by helping us. -Colonel *******, Regimental Commander, U.S. Army

March 3, 2003 hey, hows it going? ******* ****** here. all is fine. getting ready to put these [weapons] to work. the product has been doing well. pretty good
reviews. got it out to some of the teams. they like it with their [various weapons]. hopefully b**** becomes a thing of the past. they have gone and placed

navy seals, (esp. with the water displacement property), a british infantry unit has some, gonna try to get some to the aussies, and got some to the indiana
nat guard. they were all looking for something that would work better than what they had. hope they like it. will try to keep tabs on them. address here is

February 13, 2003 "It looks like your cleaner is a hit with the [Unit]. See message below.
*****SBCCOM LNO at JRTC
From: **** SFC **** HHC S4 NCOIC
yes... the troopers love the strikehold!!!!!!!!!!!! It is a lot easier to clean a weapon than using the standard WD-40. I even had calls for additional cans for the
soldiers. I already emailed the company XO's and supply sergeants on the POC, name and number. LMK if you need anything else. -SFC *******, S4/ PBO
NCOIC

January 29, 2003 Just a quick "Thank-you!" from 10 very stressed out individuals on the verge of deployment(sometime in the next 72 hours). Your quick
response and no-nonsense sales made doing business with you a pleasure. I'm sure our small order is no big deal, but I hope to convince the brass your
product is worthy of the whole company. The info you emailed is helping greatly. Thanks again. -SFC ********U.S. National Guard

November 8, 2002 “…Basically this product [Strike-Hold] has been tested by numerous units on post and in the Army. It has been tested against various
other cleaning products past and present and nothing else measures up or cleans and protects to the same level.” -1LT ******U.S. Army
