I Love The Smell Of CLP - Funny Gun Oil Veteran Tee
Coffee can wait. Bolt carrier out, gas key scrubbed, bore patch number 41 still coming out black, armorer still unimpressed. The smell lasts through chow and two showers. Fourteen years out, the gun oil still beats the coffee, and the garage smells like a cleaning kit on purpose. Someone asks what cologne that is. You sniff your thumb and tell the truth.
THE DEBRIEF
One engraved cut-glass decanter, faceted ball stopper, hatched shadow underneath. Gold-framed label: EAU DE CLP, NOTES OF LUBRICANT, BRASS & PEW-PEW POWDER, two crossed flintlock muskets. I LOVE THE SMELL OF CLP arched across the top, a gold scroll flourish under it. IN THE MORNING on the ribbon banner below. Gold rule at the bottom.

QUESTIONS FROM THE BACK
What does CLP stand for on guns?
Cleaner, Lubricant, Protectant. One bottle cleans the rifle, oils it and keeps the rust off. The fourth job, following you home on your thumbs, never made the military spec.
Is CLP a good lubricant?
Yes, for most rifles. It cleans, lubes and protects in one pass, which is why it lives in every cleaning kit. Some shooters switch to a dedicated grease on the rails. Nobody switches out the smell.
Who said I love the smell of gunpowder in the morning?
Nobody famous. It is a riff on Lieutenant Colonel Kilgore's line in Apocalypse Now (1979), and it gets said at a lot of firing lines. One step later in the day comes the bottle you cleaned the gunpowder off with, and that smell sticks around longer.
