Maintaining your firearm is a key point to keeping them shooting properly. Modern Spartan Systems is in the market to help you with all those needs. If it’s cleaning, oiling, greasing, or anything else you might need to maintain that firearm, they have you covered. I received one of their “Starter Kit Plus”, some Blade Oil, and even an engine additive. I’ll try to inform you about the products and how they worked for me.

Modern Spartan systems uses a Nano Shield technology to make their products. This Nano Shield allows molecular particles to penetrate and fill in microscopic gaps in metal. It does this through heat activation. Some parts, like barrels, will do this under their own heat. Other parts might need to be heated in an oven to obtain this. But mainly, just put it on and use it as normal. It effectively smooths out all the rough spots that one can only see under a microscope.

Another thing that makes the Modern Spartan System products stand out is their “green” labeling. Essentially their products are marked “green” or “earth friendly”. They use the definition of green from the EPA. The EPA standard says that they must be either biodegradable or inert. Modern Spartan Systems does, almost jokingly, say “Although we are not recommending that you ingest our products or use them as salad dressing, our formulas are generally quite safe to work with.” So if you are worried about harsh chemicals, these might be what you need. These products work just as good, better in my opinion, then those caustic ones you are used to.

The Starter Kit Plus is exactly that, a kit that includes all the cleaning and lubrication you need. It comes with the Modern Spartan Systems Accuracy Oil, Carbon Destroyer, Accuracy Grease, Copper/Lead Destroyer, and Crystal Clear.

The Carbon Destroyer and Copper/Lead destroyer are your cleaning products. Use the Copper/Lead Destroyer for cleaning barrels, slides, bolts, etc, as you would any other bore cleaner. It works well on both copper and lead. The best part is that there aren’t any harsh smells. If you have ever tried to get out copper with an old school solvent, you know what I mean. My absolute favorite product in the kit is the Carbon Destroyer. It works like nothing else I have ever used, including other carbon removers. Just soak your carboned up part for a bit and then wipe the carbon off. If it doesn’t all come off, just repeat. Or scrape the carbon off much easier because it has been loosened up from the Carbon Destroyer.

The Accuracy Oil and Grease are where the Nano Shield tech really shows. For our purposes, the grease is just thicker Accuracy oil for parts that need grease. So anything about the oil, also applies to the grease. Now the Accuracy Oil is fantastic! It is called “accuracy oil” because of the Nano Shield technology. By smoothing out the imperfections in your barrel, it makes it more accurate. As a byproduct, the barrel is also easier to clean. The amount of gained accuracy has a lot of variables, but it does have some validity. I just can’t say if it helped my rifle, since I am not as good of a shooter as I once was. The other huge advantage to the Accuracy oil is that it reduced friction by 90%. I can actually feel the difference when cycling my firearms. Since it also bonds to the metal, it protects the surface. I also noticed that it doesn’t become sticky like other oils I’ve used. It stays slick even after sitting for a while.

The Crystal Clear is Modern Spartan’s glass cleaner. It works on plastics also, so you can use it to clean your safety glasses. It is designed to be used on scopes, binoculars, and glasses. In order to get the most accuracy out of a firearm, you need to have the scopes glass clean. Just spritz some of the Crystal Clear on and wipe it off with a cleaning cloth. Since I wear prescription glasses, I used this on them also. My lenses came out super clean. The small bottle is great to keep in your range or hunting bag.

Modern Spartan Systems also sent a bottle of their “Blade” oil. This is their knife oil and protectant. Very similar to the Accuracy oil, it also reduces friction by 90%. The “Blade” oil also creates a slick surface to help sharp things glide through whatever they are cutting. It also bonds with the metal to create that same Nano Shield. On a knife, this helps the blade to effectively be sharper by smoothing out those microscopic imperfections. You can use it on anything that cuts, from scissors to axes, and it will protect them from rusting. I’ve been using the “Blade” oil on all the knives around here. It definitely makes them open easier. I'm terrible at keeping my knives at their sharpest, so if the blade oil makes them cut better, I don’t know, but at least I know they are protected from the elements.

I also was sent the “TVT” engine oil additive. You add this to your engine oil, and using the same molecular bonding as the other oils, it reduces friction. I have no way of actually testing this. Modern Spartan says it will increase fuel mileage by 5-10%. I saw about a 3% gain in mileage. Not a ton, but with overpriced fuel these days, 3% can be a good amount.

The Modern Spartan Systems Starter Kit Plus is great. It has 2 ounce bottles of everything you need to clean and maintain your firearms. The stuff really works, all of it, even the Blade oil. If I were to choose one product to buy, it would be the Accuracy Oil, followed by the Carbon Destroyer. Mainly because the oil does so much, and I use it more often. Do yourself a favor and go check out the products over at Modern Spartan Systems. They have stuff for fishing, automotive, knives, and of course firearms.

Amazing products!

I've tried the Carbon Destroyer and accuracy oil so far and they are a clear step up from every other gun cleaning and lube products out there. I am very particular with my choice of gun maintenance products and only use the best available. Spartan systems are the new King of the hill, by a measurable margin. My go to range gun has over 20K rounds through it already and now it feels better than brand new.
