Flynn Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 I'd heard tales that the Legia Green (stock oil) was no longer being made. Didn't pay much attention at the to be honest but now I've got a grade 5 Miroku which has been fed on a diet of Legia Green, I figured I'd continue. Can't find anywhere (online) that has it in stock - anyone know of an online retailer, or any bricks and mortar stores around Gloucestershire who have any in stock? If push comes to shove I'll just get some CCL Stock oil, but if I can continue with the green, I shall. Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marktattoo Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 You will be lucky to find some, tried looking myself and couldn't find any either local or online, apparently browning have a new red tin the suitable for stocks as well but not seen any or checked myself just what one of the local dealers told me. All the best in your hunt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted April 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Ah well - CCL it will be then. If I do come across any, I'll report back, but the cupboards are bare it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveyTed Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 What about Ballistol - good on anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted April 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 As it happens, I've already got a 500ml can of Ballistol (enough to last a lifetime essentially). However, I wasn't sure what the difference was between the Legia green oil and Ballistol (chemically) was. It may well be that Legia green is nothing but a mineral based oil, much like Ballistol is - I've no idea. After speaking to the previous owner of the gun, who's kept it in pristine condition, I decided to continue using what he's already impregnated the stock with - Legia green, only to discover it's no longer being made. Which reminds me, I've still not called Croxton Country Stores... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby b Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 I've just got a tin of the new legia spray and it says on it it's for everything. (Steel, wood and plastic). They have stopped making the green bug this new red does it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
