Italian Gun Grease (IGG) products are utilized by many great Pro Shooters, including the famed Jerry Miculek (the man who inspired that movie where they “bend bullets” because he actually can), and Multiple World Speed and USPSA National Champ Max Michel. IGG has now released “Copper Eliminator” to help you rid all of your firearms of copper and lead fouling. They promise the non-invasive cleaner does not have a strong odor, nor they say will it cause any damage to your firearms components. The IGG Copper Eliminator cleans up fast using a gun patch, is a non-toxic glycerin based formula, and can be utilized in conjunction with the Italian Gun Grease Carbon Eliminator for a thorough cleaning. Italian Gun Grease manufactures all of their lubricants and cleaners in the United States and offers their Copper Eliminator in 2, 4, and 6 ounce bottles, starting at $8.50. All IGG products can be purchased direct at their Online Store.
